Spend much of the day yesterday installing my new interior. New carpet, New seats. Welded up a Harness bar and installed it.

MORE PICS:



I actually got to drive it today. It's pretty LOUD. I guess a 2nd muffler is in order.





Shifter in place





Oil Cooler isn't as low as it looks.





You can see my Intercooler behind the grill.





Tight... But it fits. The Air Cleaner was an old KN I had.





Yeah gonna change that air cleaner.





Motor has NOS (Dual Foggers) and is controlled by a HALTECK





Large 3" radiator fit.



And the car will be painted GREEN. Working on the rear tailgate... I've smoothed it out and added a 3" lip to the top.

Updates: Added a 2nd muffler (Went with a Stainless Magnaflow) well see how it holds up. And 2-1/2 pipe all the way out the back.



Rear seat is gone... I needed a place for my bottle and a little sound other than the Rotary.



So this is what I came up with.















No going crazy on wattage (just a few hundred). Hope to finish it up within a week.

The Stereo is just about done... I have 2 more speakers and tweeters in the rear to wire up.
