here is a few videos of her running! still have a few issues that need to be worked out. seems to be a vacuum leak somewhere and we have a huge leak coming out of the driver side header, long tubes are being ordered because i want them anyway!

fit some long tubes on it as well, had an exhaust leak that was causing a lot of O2 issues and was extremely annoying as well.. they are just bbk because thats about all i had money for but they went on. 1 3/4" primaries, and an off road h-pipe.

its been awhile, but i'm back. A lot has changed, and i went a different route with the build. I got rid of the kenne bell and added a few other things. Going with n/a for now with the hope of a single turbo later on.
Latest adds have been:
Edelbrock Performer RPM II Intake
UPR Coil Overs with Strange 10 Way adjustable shocks
Florida 5.0 Gauge Cluster
Holley HP EFI system
and a few others. Pictures!

31 spline, gt500 diff, upr upper/lower control arms, UPR diff cover.


unfortunately, i don't have any pictures of it yet on the car, but they made one heck of a difference.


New gauge setup.


I did get a pistol grip shift stick instead.. was not enjoying the t handle.


This system is amazing. Easy to run, easy to setup, and even easier to tune.





There is still a lot of work to be done in the bay. I want to clean it up, fill in the holes, and hide the wires. Battery box has been in the back for awhile, just haven't moved it back there yet!

I also have purchased a UPR K member, A arms, and coil overs for the front and some MT E/t Streets for the rear!
