FD coming along... (pics)
Everything is coming along. Still a work in progress cosmetically, but mechanically killer. It's Chad @ ASI's vision underneath the hood. Some polishing and breaking in to go....700 miles till boost. :-P Thought you guys might like to see...

rotorrooter: I'm a "leave the AST in" guy I don't know if having it upright negates the need for the AST, but I don't want to start one of those debates. I figure I have the ASI ast with the billet top, so it's bulletproof...leave it there.
The intercooler is also made by ASI. The engine was ported and rebuilt by ASI with hurley 2mm.
Greddy BOV, Elbow, ProfecB.
Um... Brembos, Hawk HPS pads.
Racing Beat springs.
ACT SS clutch.
9.5 flywheel
DP, MP with Edelbrock weld
Peittit boost gauge, Unlimited ECU
Supra pump
Still need: aluminum radiator, short shift, torque brace...
Any other suggestions?

Wow, Leprecaun, that is very clean! I have a silver FD with a blown motor that is my next project car and yours is just the look I am after.
Congrats and good luck!

Oh and I'm not non-seq. Chad must have hidden it. :-x
Just say NO to lag (at least until I go single). I'll get some more shots tomorrow in daylight if you want.
The metal piece was custom made by ASI. And I'm not sure which pulley set that is, actually. Chad would know...
Thanks for the compliments, guys.

And as a bonus here are some more pics of the aluminum covers. Call chad at 954-566-2472 if you are interested in one. He makes them.
As you can see, gives the engine bay a really clean, put-together look.

I would imagine you could make them fit around that stuff. You have to keep things below the level of the cover anyway, or the hood won't close.
ASI's # is 954-566-2472 . He will tell you how much they are. Mine was a package thing with the intercooler-engine, etc.
