I am typing with the On-Screen keyboard so this'll be brief. laugh.gif I painted under the fenders black, removed bumper, hood, lowbeams, and fenders. Also painted left caliper and over the surface where the fenders go. Still need to do the right one, the rear drums, part of engine bay, valve cover, exhaust manifold, and interior. I am getting a custom-made radiator so I can fit the TO4E compressor I never installed when I purchased the turbo. I am also doing something cool with the exhaust I will not disclose yet. biggrin.gif I will be making some fiberglass pieces for the interior and installing another car's gauge cluster. tongue.gif Will update with better pics later and more details. Stay tuned. wink.gif

Intercooler looks big without a bumper to cover it.

Everything is dirty; lack of use and rats are to blame.

Fuel rail modified with braided lines.

Turbo oil return line, downpipe flexpipe, and external wastegate discharge.

Exhaust piping with a resonator and Magnaflow muffler at the end.

nice work. do you intend to redo your exhaust? cause the part where it goes over the axle and where it's crushed bent.. looks kindda small.. maybe consider going under axle? less bent?
