Man, that looks awesome. I wish I had a red car instead of silver. Good luck on the rest of the build.

Damn Tom, that looks factory new! The effort you're putting into that thing is very admirable.

Dammit Tom!! I see dirt on the TB!
Man I would post pics of mine but you make me feel dirty and stupid. Honestly I don't even know how it's possible to get it that clean... I've soaked my parts in degreaser for days and it still looks like hell.

Sorry about that. I started a new thread when it fired up...

https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...turned+the+key

I'll be giving an update in the next month or so. I'll be getting it smogged shortly, then off to the dyno. It feels great on the street -- I've been running it at 20psi on 100 octane.
