QUOTE (RabidTRD @ Nov 5, 2011 - 2:23 PM)  That square block where you drew a square (looks like you were thinking of putting it there) is where I put mine. lol yea the reason why I didnt was because it kept popping out due to the wires. I happy I hid it now though, itll also make the hole on the cover glow red so that should be neat :-P --------------------  Power in Balance 90 ST coupe- Sold 95 ST hatch- Dead :’( 02 Impreza RS- DD |

I had to cut a hole in that reinforcement plate behind the plastic to make it fit well.

So I have decided instead of buying a 7th gen gts, I will be keeping the celi and turbo'ing the 7a. I just have too much of me into the car and I love the look and feel of the car too much to just get another car. Mind you this wont happen till some time next year (before the summer) so I will be saving and getting parts as needed. Needless to say Im happy with my choice and this will happen and not be "Im going to turbo" and end up not happening.

Well I have the means to turbo it and I want to have a unique fun car. Im not looking for power so the build wont cost as much as others. And Im not 100% on how much it will cost me as I have yet to check all of the parts I will get but prob. No more than 1k -------------------- Power in Balance 90 ST coupe- Sold 95 ST hatch- Dead :’( 02 Impreza RS- DD |

Just for the research that I put into for turboing the 5s, it was about 2.5k or more. It would just make more sense for me to go with a st205 clip and get everything I need. If you can do it for 1k or under, that's great, but don't cut corners and get cheap parts. |
