and something i am going to have to disagree with lol.

i do like black. and the exterior and interior are going to be solid black.

but i want ot to be BAM when i open the ood. so even people who dont know shlt about motors will be like DAmn

plus i like the green like that. and am only going to do ome more thing. but when i get the other stuff i ntherer such as intercooler pipes and intake and radiator it wont stand out so much.

Good man or boy.. lol sry

Don't let others tell you how to do your car. If you wanted their opinion on what color scheme to go with you would have asked that. I commend you on staying focused on making the car the way YOU want it!!!

Same thing happened to me when i was working on my 91 corolla. I decided i wanted to put a Cobra R rear bumper and Saleen side skirts on and DAmN i LOVED it. Others didnt but i dont care. I do to my cars what I WANT and not give in to what others want.

If they want a car to look a certain way, then they need to go out and build one that suits them.

me and idaho often give our opinions on each others progress. by now my knows my opinion on the color and stuff and i know i wont offend him by speaking my mind, just like he wouldnt offend me. a lot of times he does ask for opinions so i give them, theres nothing wrong with getting feedback. hell if it wasnt for him asking for others opinions he might have ended up with green seats, lol

haha yea. i wont have the green seats lol. and i am not offended. but stuff like this isnt that important so i know doing it my way wont affect soemthing else. now along the lines of tuning and the such i all ways need help becasue i dont trust my own judgment.

sweet build.

I would paint the wiper motor, and fuse box covers back to black and leave green as the contrasting cover on your suspension and valve cover. I bet that thing is going to to be a fun street car. The gt28 will spool similar to stock, but support alot more psi.

a gt2871 will spool faster then stock, i dont see how that is possible since it is a bigger turbo. it will hit full bost around 4k so that is sweet.

Crack kills kid. A t25 spools if you sneeze on it. The 28RS and 2871r will spool...heck at least in my experience, at least 1000 rpms after a t25 lol.

And PS: Ball bearing doesn't mean it will spool up like a VNT at all. I actually would go as far as to say that it may only speed spool up by 250-400 rpm at best. Now for off boost/transient response...wow, there is where your difference is.

nice. that is waht i am hopping for. peak boost will probably be about 22psi.

and low will be 18

but for normal driving i will just let the acuator do its job, and have the boost controler turned off.

i havent done anything to my car deserving of an update. mostly because i have been going to school now. which sucks. but hey i gotta go to make the big money. still hopen to have my car start able in march.

it would help if i would get my turbos and other parts advertised.but we will see.

sunday i will do soem work to the car.

hooking up wiring. and the such.

maybe do some tucking of wires. but proably not yet.

i do need to get my gauges wired in and mounted. so they will be working when i start the car.along with my boost controller. casue i want to do all the wiring at once and get it over with.

i wish i had some one that could do it for me like mrgreeneyes

but since i dont i will have to struggle though it by my self.

sunday i will figure out how to install the short shifter. then i will take it all apart and do a write up on it. so mods know i will be expecting a custom title.

ok a little up date. i hooked my wiring harness up. i have to lengthen about 14 wires on the injectors and O2 sensor. i cant really do that until i get my new injectors so i can have them installed so i can figure out how long i need to make the wires.

so the the ignitor thing is mounted on the drivers shock piller. correct. do the little vaccum hose that goes to the intake really needed.
