It's a mutant. You should see the interior. Aside from the driver's seat, it's pristine.

well today, i put some newish rb wires on the car along with some new plugs, a fresh tank of 93 w/ 1/2 a quart of some good premix. also got the car running almost on key. fixxed the major vacume leak problem with stock TID and also found out why the i was boostin like 15lbs @ 5500rpm lol the fitting on the turbos compressor that connect the vac line to the waste gate actuator blew out noting a little teflon tape couldnt fix lol if it blows again ill jb weld the bitch, adjusted idle to pretty good, found my oil leaks. and spent a good amount of time ripping the destroyed **** off of my other tII salvaged the front bumper support amazingly so i can now put on my 91 witch ive been driving w/o bumper or support. anyways car drives much much better. low end rpms are stll shaky im thinking this will clear up after driving it some more it did sit for like 2 years so it could be from carbon build up but when in boost it pulls awsomly. still sounds like and sti but its geting better. so tomorrow ill overnight my turbo oil line gaskets so theyll come in with the omp lines and gaskets i have on order. more to come
