So last winter i didnt get around to much. I am finally returning home from New Zealand on Nov 12th, and i am bringing with me a Evo 3 exhaust mani and it only cost me $40 US!

I have debated what to do with the car, and finally decided my performance mods are done for the time. I am going to make it CLEAN.

I have a few new parts for the CLEAN BUILD:

Evo3 16g Ported and Clipped (Basically brand new, just rebuilt)
Evo3 Exhaust manifold
Evo3 O2 housing

The car will get a HUGE interior cleaning.

Half my interior is black (i think previous owner started to swap) So painting the trunk trim pieces.
Doing my carpet BLACK.
Headliner done in BLACK.
Rear seats will be partially deleted.
Last custom trunk (panel for battery underneath)

Pictures soon as i return.

	I return home in 6 days. Pics will be coming shortly. Also, got a 20g instead of the Evo3. $300 for a balanced, and rebuilt and ported 20g, with wastegate and o2 housing ported shipped to my door.

	^^ Thanks for the pics Austin! This is going to be my fun daily, so it will pack a punch and be a fun highway car. Will be running it around 20psi when all things are set, but only round 12-14psi for the start (and winter lol)

	Turbo looks GREAT Austin! Thanks! I did my cleaning up today, and i will do some before and after pics. I drained the oil today, flushed the radiator, and pulled a bunch of parts off for cleaning. I need to pick up a few things tomorrow and then i will wash and clean and finish it. Pics later today
