Tips for the Noob
- Read the frequently asked questions section
- Learn how to access the online Factory Service Manual
- Learn how to use the search function; most of your questions have already been asked
- Don't title your threads with dumb *** titles like "Help" Use a descriptive title that references your question or problem
- Never trust a dealership to work on your car! Find a good local Rotary mechanic; learn how to do most of the work yourself

thanks for welcoming

I actually took a wrong turn on a road and then saw it and was like AWESOME (of course) then there was the for sale sign in the window and I was like BINGO!

I new what I was getting into when I bought the car as far as being poor goes lol

As far as plans goes, Intake, boost gauge, Apexi turbo timer which should be here in about an hour or so actually.

Then FCD and then save money till winter when I will store and upgrade turbo, injectors, fuel.

Nice find.

If you're planning on a turbo upgrade, a standalone ems should be the first item on your list. Where are you in MI anyways?

Awesome, man.

Sell that turbo timer, you don't need it for your turbo.. take the money you get from it and put it toward some other upgrades.

Welcome to the community!
