I had the same goal for my 244... a year late as well Weezil. I say that cause although I bought sways and gave you a ride in my car I can't remember your name.

Initially the goal for the wagon was my wedding- which was september of 08, so I'm even further behind.

His name is Ben, and he is good ****, don't forget his name ever again!

Just kiddin'

Sorry for thread jack.

Looking pretty sweet Kenny. Honestly, get it running. Then do the other little things. Knowing your attention to detail, I know that after your first ride around the block, will get you very motivated to finish everything else. It might be the kick in the ass that has been 5 years coming.

The dynamic of hearing a project vehicle running after a long wait gives me motivation.

Theoretically because I haven't touched my car in like three weeks. Glad to see you're getting after it again!

Ditto with Phil, Pm me if you ever need an extra pair of hands.

It's the double-edged sword of having two cars. I don't NEED it so I don't work so hard on it.

I actually lol'd.

I expect having a good update by the end of the weekend, some more goodies arrived today.

RSI headers are just humming right along too.

I think the guys at work are starting to think I'm developing a drug problem though, I 'm pretty wrecked some mornings working late on this stuff. Ah well, a couple months of going hard at it won't kill me.

But yeah... updates soon!

Yeah, that's fine. What sucks though is it's supposed to be decent weather tomorrow and pissing rain sunday afternoon.

That's ok though we'll work with it. I can push the car out if it's bad.

Nice effort. How much Nitrous could be stuffed into that brace?

Time to break out the BFH? Looks like the silicon coupler is hitting the strut tower there. I'm sure it's something easy to take care of

Heh, nah the turbo is actually just sitting on the motor mount, it isn't bolted up. There's plenty of room actually when it's actually attached to the header.
