This might be asked alot but...
 
im on dial up (only connected at 28.8kbs) and thats why u dont see me much on here cause this site takes forever for me. but hopefully in aug i can start being on here alot.

anyways, could u guys list reliabilty mods? cause thats what i wanna do 1st to make it stay running.

if u need to know my car info its

1994, Vintage red, PEP/PEG, 67K miles on body, and around 25K on the redone seals. its all stock besides, New Batt (opt.) silicone hoses.

so just wanna start looking into some reliabilty mods

thanks!

first buy a downpipe. Change fuel filter and all fluids (tranmision etc etc) Doing the hose job is good, your one step ahead of the game. Also replace the ast as that is known to crack. If you go to the faq section their is a nice big writeup on reliability mods.

Good list, I would also add a boost gauge. That will tell you alot about the health of the sequential turbo system.

While we are on the subject, at what point does boost creep raise it's ugly head? Downpipe, cat elimination, cold air intake (apexi etc), intercooler? Or what combination?

Go through the FAQ thread and archives, that way you can avoid using the Search function.

Boost creep will not be a problem until you have a full exhaust and intake.
