Default Almost there....

After the last 7 years I think I am almost done..... BUT not quite yet
This was my first car when I was 17.... got bit by the bug early, and went NUTS spending money on it lol.
After thousands upon thousands of dollars I ended up with a 1992 lx that had a full 10point cage, glens performance fuel system, painted and rust repaired in my garage, 04 cobra engine swap with built th400, pt88mm turbo on 16 psi making 627hp and 566trq. and lots and lots of other good stuff

Plans are to add meth to UP the boost a little, and get a tune on race gas as well.

I did pretty much all the work on the car except some welding, tune, and the rearend. This car is a "street car" and I drive it DAILY during the summer.....
End goal is to eventually get into true street, and want the car deep in the 9s/8s... Will get there eventually!!!!!!!

Awesome man! If it wasn't for the inter-cooler and the tire setup, you'd have yourself a sleeper! I had my 88' LX set up similar to that. Even ran the Weld draglites too. Thanks a lot.. now i miss my fox! lol
