well the downpipe and up pipe with catback started to wear off within a week or two, i soon followed it up with vf34, sti injectors, walbro fuel pump, had the car reflashed with an i speed ecutek i dynoed 256 on a mustang dyno with a stock top mount, after about a week i upgraded to new swaybay and mounts and solid endlinks, i also did the noltec sterring bushings, a week later i sold the gold rotas to a fellow guize and scored some gunmeta sdr's, a week after that i picked up a eibach prokit to help the handling and looks, and i thought i was done, ya right i spotted a blitz fmic on the classifeds for a killer price picked that up and installed, this last weekend i installed a perrin tubro inlet to macth my perrin short ram well not really looks like a cop car, after hacking the stock fogs out i replaced with sti covers, heres a recent pick of motor and looks, up next is maybe a lip? gt30 turbo either 6 speed or ra gear set, and brakesssssss thanks i-club for making my gf hate my car lmao

Nice James, I liked getting to personally see your car go from stocker to beast in a matter of months. What about a pic with your new headlights?

I still think you're ghey. If it weren't for my damn tranny peoblems I'd have the yellow version of your car, but alas, I am stuck with the stock turbo and intercooler. Nice car James.
