the motor bay was painted with the Rustolium (sp?) Hammered Paint, i think it came out really good and looks amazing in person. I plan to do the interior with the same paint. I'm going for the black and bronze look in the motor bay, i think it will look good.

Stock port with a SS autochrome manifold and a T04 60-1 or similar with a standalone? (Though, I must say, that ignition 'button', just about made me click back and never want to check in again!)

Stock port, temporaly, to make sure everthing runs then big nasty motor going in

I'm using a Master Power T70 P trim 1.00 T4 hotside and Haltech E6X, still have to order these

As far as the ignition button, if you don't like it ohwell, the car is full gutted i don't even plan to have a key for the car anymore, it going to basically be a beast *** weekend racer/drag car, so i must have some way to start it.

I'm also planning on running a 12 gal fuel cell with a Aeromotive A-1000 fuel pump with -8an ss fuel line to the front split to each fuel rail then back to Aermotive FPR and a -6an ss return line. Not sure what size primaries I plan to run but 1600ccs secondaries for sure, hell might do those int he primaries also.

Goin for full lexan windows except for the front windshield for obvious reasons, roll cage, lightweight racing seats, 5 point harnesses plus more.

Like i said this is not going for looks or cumfort or luxory or anything like that but pure racing, but going to keep it stock as hell looking outside.

You can get thinner glass windshields for the front, if you so desire. At least you chose a good pump! I've got two of those things on my GTUs, they're noisey bitches though! (I was praying I wouldn't see a walbro written in there somewhere) And I commented on the button before I saw the stripped interior, lol. Kind of reminds me of how my sport looks now. Not my choice in turbos, but it should do some good numbers (I figure ~450-500?) I'd go with the 4x1600 if you can, might as well have the ability from the start to support expanding. Good luck!

Don't know if that's a good turbo for that kind of goal, you'll be running into problems of needing a LOT of boost to reach that, which means a high temperature rise, which is going to be a bad combo on a high compression motor, (this was one of the reasons I chose the 42R, things efficiency is damned good)

Your user text and the content of this thread are strikingly ironic, yet fitting!

Good luck, the car looks great so far.
