took my catch can and valve cover to electro teck for powder coating... cover says hyundai but i figure at this point half the car aint Mitsubishi so im going to continue in that direction until it ends up being a ford..LOL..:thumb:

my candy red cover with silver painted letters and coil on plug set up is now for sale... pm for details.:sneaky:
 
It will atleast fit the name. Fixed Or Repaired Daily,Found On Road Dead, and last but not least Fast On Race Day.

Im back to tuning for now I have turned up the boost im up to 12psi now. I bought a MTX-L because my PLX M300 is getting tired and retiring so time to bring in the younger more sexy replacement
 
I bought my car in the spring of 1995 with 12 miles on it. 17 years and 81,000 miles later I finally upgraded the turbo. Yes it is just a 14b but I am very happy about it.
Thanks to Kris (banishedmunk) for actually do all the work while I asked a bunch of noob questions.

That looks amazing :thumb:

thanks, I am still a bit in shock and tripped out by it. I have owned a red gsx for 17 years, now it is different.

Honestly I am not terribly happy with the quality. There is areas around the trim where you can see red plus there is a lot of orange peel but luckily it has 3 heavy coats of clear so it can be color sanded and buffed down.

Once it cures fully then I think it can be worked out.

For the money, that paint job is great Mike.

I think the only way to do it right is to pull the motor, ever body panel, interior, windows, and trim when you do a different color or else you're bound to see an area that was missed.

ya everyone told me and I knew better, but I am getting some extra paint and going to pull the skirts, bumper headlights and tail lights and trim it out myself.
