    Not new but been away for years! Finally reunited with my first DSM after 12 years!

    http://keystonerestyling.com/go to good hoods then to car hoods-all and its the last one on the first page. it doesnt show a price so im not sure how much they are now. Back then i think i payed $875 or $975 for it. I'd hope the price has went down since then.

The car had a fiberglass functional...

    smokes when boosting and when i let off the gas

    yeah since i put the stock fuel pump in it my gas milage has been ALOT better. i am assuming that my oil loss is caused by the shitty cheap ebay 16g since the shaft moves in and out (left and right) but the shaft hasnt moved at all ever since i beat it back in lol. i knew that turbo was goin to...

    smokes when boosting and when i let off the gas

    Sorry. I tried editing it. The turbo does have side to side shaft play. It quit spooling completely so i took a screw drive with a rubber handle and beat the shaft back in.
