thanks for the comments guys, i love the factory look of the TII with the more reliable power it's the perfect car for me. i can't wait to restore the entire car.

The BLK FC3S plate was photoshopped on, it was from my last car. new plate is a secret shhh.

i don't have any dyno numbers yet. very soon though. i was kinda hoping steve kan would tune it but its looking like i am using someone else.

the car was built for the street not really for drag racing so i dont think i will have 1/4 mile times.

thats one hel,of a sleeper only way to make it more of a sleeper would be having an Na hood,and GXL wheels. but then it wouldn't look as cool. AWSOME money pit man.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments.

I've been driving the car to and from work (15 miles) this week to get some miles on the motor. OMG is it fun to drive. I haven't even got it above 5k yet till its tuned but it still pulls me back into the seat, tires screamin in 3rd, and exhaust purrin. I'm glad i kept the RB exhaust and didn't get something loud and abnouxious (sp). It sounds sweet. I can only imagine when i go single what it will be like.

BTW, I'm not really GOING for the sleeper look, I just like the way the TII looks stock. I think I will get a lip and block off the hood scoop and thats all.

Future holds recover seats back to OE goodness and put some good sound in her. Maybe dynomat the back half of the car. Going to go single w/ a GT40 I think just to make some more top end power but not too much. Planning on going with a 2 disc clutch (hks maybe) and then top it off with some MSD ignition system.

It's obviously not the same car.
Hey Rich how about a ride?!
