I was going to say, looks like you need a IC. Not to mention, a single turbo. CJ

Just remember the engine managment system too.

Nope, not for sale. I have a microtech lt12 installed and tuned by Gary Brooks, the engine is fully rebuilt,polished, and streetported. The stock twins have been reconditioned and are set up non-sequential. Thinking on going single someday but I'm going to try this set up for awhile. A big intercooler is next, then I'm upgrading the fuel system. It's my goal to stick to under 400HP but remain competitive in low range. I've got to get some wheels so I can start showing it. I'm not in a hurry though FDs will not go out of style in my lifetime.

I installed an optima yellow top in passenger's storage bin, made the cover out of 1/4" black plastic and purchased all the streetwire stuff at car toys. Saved a lot of $ by doing everything myself, I'm picky anyway. Here's a few more pics. Enjoy

Yes, the carbon fiber is bright silver. A little more expensive than the black or titanium because of the non yellowing clearcoat and material itself. You get what you pay for though. It's becoming more available and used on show cars more often. If you start with a silver base, and use a color tinted clearcoat the posibilities are endless.

Is it an auto? Please tell me it's manual, lie if you have to. Why on God's green earth would people make an automatic sports car? It should be one of the unforgivable sins, write it into a law that makes it illegal.

Titanium c.f. is a dark greyish mix between what I've got in silver and the common black stuff. The shop that sent my parts to Indonesia is no longer in business. I see a lot of carbon fiber in magazines and at import car shows, photos don't capture the depth of the product its better to see it in person.
