I've got one... but I don't think it works.

Boos, the T2 hood will be on my car, you can take a look at it then. My NA aluminum hood won't be done for a few weeks though, so you'll still have to wait.

I could also bring the H4 conversion lenses if anyone wants to take a look at them.

Maybe I should start looking to see what other random crap I've got laying around.

The turbo is easy to replace, just buy another one for like 120 bucks and plop it right in!

i know its not stupid but what is, is me spending another g for a motor they may not work good or may need to be rebuilt just to go back to na at this point i dont have that kind of money nor do i have the space or parking to do it again but i do have good news and kind of bad news it seems not to be the turbo that went out so thats a good thing but what did happen is that i ran out of oil but too quick and not having gauges that work really sucks because i cant keep an eye on whats going on in the heart of smokie jr. so now i have to re-direct my focus from my exhaust to my vitals so i can know whats going on so this weekend i will buy me some gauges but i just dont know how to put them on if anyone knows how and is willing to help that would be greatly appreicated if not thats cool ill do what ive been doing for the past 2 and a half years......do everything myself.........so if everything goes well and i can get my hand on some money to get some oil then i may make it out friday but i know i have plans with my pastor so i will see how that goes if i dont make it i will see you guys next sat at ssx

going to have the turbo rebuilt possible in two weeks.........if everything goes well but someone is telling me that my oil seals are blown but i dont believe it because the turbo was the issue in the first place it always smoked but we will see theres no point in rebuilding something that has already been rebuilt with new parts but they say its just been assembled and the person that built it i trust him and wouldnt have anyone else build my engine but him(lucky 7racing).........so i will rebuild my turbo and then see what happens after that
