Herblenny,
Yeah, I didn't like the green and blue combo. I got some more things chromed and finished polishing the lower intake manifold so while I had it apart I replaced the hoses again. Thanks for the props, I remember you. Definitely dedicated, can't say I woulda drove the hooptie Taurass up to indy if my 7 was outta commission for the revolution. Hopefully we'll meet up again at next years revolution. Are you planning on going?

Art,

I'm definitely going.. I'm trying to organize some of SE peeps to go.. So far I have about 5 people interested (from AL)..

Hope this time, I'll bring my 7's.. Luckily its been running great.. Hope it stays this way until RR 2004.

PHIL

Big *** Exaust system i think its HKS 3 1/2" from front to back or sumting
Greddy Elbow
18" Volk Racing rims/supra tires (it says on the tires)
Momo Steering, shift, hand brake
Turbo timer
hhmnnn i thinks thats about it.

can anyone give me an idea on what to do next?
Im still learning about this car, I picked this car coz i know its one of the best cars around.

im aiming for 350 to 400 HP. thanks

...single turbo...

good reliable power with the single as opposed to stressing the twins with those numbers.

get rid of the airpump that you are not useing. it looks like there is no belt on there. unless you have your stock cats theres no point in having there. also you better not have stock ecu with full exhuast

but this thread isnt about what mods you should do, its just so pple can show there engines off. this forum is the perfect soruce for anything you need to know. just do a search and you will find it. do lots of reading!

anyways nice engines guys!

Average high output of these cars is 350, 400 is very unlikely. And even 350 is pushing it

Not sure on the color code, but Art always gets his hoses from Hose Techniques.
