Cold air intake (modified stock airbox), stainless downpipe, Racing Beat dual tip exhaust, Chris Rogers' streetport, radiator upgrade, Tri-Point AST, all Viton hoses, synthetic ATF in tranny, boost gauge...hmmm...seems like I am missing something....
I've got a PFS 'Purple' box to install still as well as a Supra fuel pump and a Pettit high-flow cat.

Hows that Racing Beat dual tip exhaust sound? Got any videos / sound clips? My car had that tip on it when I bought it but haven't heard it yet (still being restored).

i have auto cars before and have friend who have 500hp automatic cars, its the hassle of building the transmission that is a turn off. If you get the transmission build witha high stall converter then yes, autos CAN be faster then manual, or if you runa TH350 or TH400, but that is way way way way more expensive then the manual tranny. under boost a auto tranny will hold power better but are prone to braking down under alot less HP, that is the problem.

Also about salvage title..... a car does not have to be bent to hell to be salvage, it can be salvage due to theft, minor fender bender that includes high price rare parts, or even beign vadalized. If a car has been repaired and you can tell its been repaired nice then screw the title, most cars will show any problem after an accident in the first few years after he repair. the title is a great way to bargain but i really dont care.

Salvage title.. here in Canada is a death sentence for insurance... Not sure in US. But if you are happy with it, get it. There are many to choose from, maybe you might want to see others first..

Check to see if you can even get insurance..
