Extra parts that will eventually be installed. I have 90% tan interior pieces and original wheels. Previous owner swapped to all black interior pieces for the most part.

Catch can needs to be permanently installed somewhere(up right), but I have no room at the moment

Got wrenches to unbolt that annoying nut next to the power steering pump to replace my stock exhaust manifold. I have a brand new FP manifold going on Wednesday when I am off work!

Also added some rubber straps to keep my battery in place, anyone got a better solution let me know. Thinking about relocating battery to the rear.

Just got exhaust manifold gasket and the turbo manifold gasket. Also a few goodies I had from about 5 years ago. 2.02 maft, fuel pump rewire kit, and a 190lph walbro pump.

I just need to pick up a 3" gm mas and tactic 2.0 open port cables and I can throw all this on there!

3D printed myself a cigarette lighter plug as well as a shift knob haha. Also off with the old on with the new! FP manifold is now installed, I need to figure out a heat shield for it though. Also FP intake going on later today when my silicone coupler arrives!

I didn't like the white after market side skirts and haven't had the funds to get color matching paint. So I decided to put these spare off colored red ones on.. I think it looks better then the white ones at least for now.

Once I get my turbo rebuild kit and throttle body rebuild completed I am praying that will be the last of my issues and I can focus on cosmetic and handling.

Starting with color matching the side skirts, coilovers to lower the car, upgraded brakes, and any other defects I don't like!

Turbo rebuilt, throttle body rebuilt. Got idle from 1.6k to 850! Running good!
