But aaaahhhh! There's more!

Upgraded the front control arms to something a bit more high end

And I decided that the look of the car was not the best so I installed a JDM front bumper. It changes the entire look of the car and now it looks so aggressive yet elegant.

Yes it's almost perfect. My knees still come a little close to the steering wheel but I can always get a smaller steering wheel. :tup:

Thanks Buddy! :tup:

It's amazing how much money I pour into this thing and I don't see an end any time soon. :lol:

So I just purchased the following stuff. Now I am committed to doing a turbo build on my 240... this should be interesting to say the least. I will update pics as I start getting parts in. This is always my favorite part of any build is getting all the parts.

Turbonetics GT-K 450 turbo w/wet housing
Aeromotive 340 fuel pump
Deatschwerks 810CC side feed injectors
Sard FPR
AWIC, 14x4x5
HeatExchanger, 26x7x2
AWIC installation kit w/pump, fill cap and spout
Synapse synchronic BOV
Synapse synchronic wastegate

Here is some porn for you to look at :D

In anticipation of my up and cumming turbo build I am beginning to accumulate some parts. More to come later as parts come in but this just scratches the surface. My plan is to install all the fuel system parts first to get my feet wet with advanced tuning on the AEM. Once I am comfortable scaling injectors and developing tunes for both gasoline and E, I will begin the turbo install.

I'm taking baby steps.

Also installed my Radiator and Fan assembly and deleted the Clutch Fan. And installed my oil filter relocation kit.

Finally a measure of good news in my life for a change.

For some time I have been helping out at my friends shop and doing tuning for him and his business, Often for little to no money but to mostly hone my skills across multiple platforms. Well turns out that they will be expanding the business and relocating to a larger facility and getting more resources. One of those resources is a dyno. They approached me and suggested they employ me as a permanent tuner.

Essentially, No more street tunes for me except the occasional drivability calibration. They hope to move into the new facility by May and we will see then what really happens but these guys are known to act on every word so I am not worried. Having proven myself to them time and time again was the reason for their confidence in me. This couldn't come at a better time because my Turbo build is being scheduled for July-ish, and access to a dyno would be the tits.

I'm hoping this takes off for them but I don't have much doubt that it will. They are in the business now for over 30 years and they combine both old school and new school trains of thought. I just think it would be awesome to hang my hat somewhere and be associated with an actual shop.

Oh of course! We are looking at a few but I think they may go with a mustang. They are looking at prices right now and whether they want to lease or buy.

Can't wait to install this shit... alas I can't have anything go my way because now my transmission is making some horrible noises and this week end is supposed to be cold. I wanted to install my injectors and go SD but it looks like i'll be painting my lip instead.

Oh well :unsure:
