I think you had to have bose to get the carpet part. I took it off a loaner I had from the dealer.

Yes we are building a dual 3" in a few weeks. I'm still trying to get the dual "coupe" like setup too. I think I have a way but we'll see.

Yes it's being built now. Should be done by the end of next month. I'll post more pics and details as it goes.

No not anything crazy, just a basic build.
Weisco 8.8:1 pistons (+.020)
Tomei Rods
L19 head studs
ARP main studs
HKS head gasket
Pathfinder cooling mod
JWT S1 cams/springs (I'm going to try and raise the rev limit with these)
AAM 3" downpipes with WG dump tubes (routed back into exhaust since I don't like the sound of open dumps)
Revup oil pump
I'm trying to decide if I want to do any major head work or not. Right now I was just going to clean everything up. We'll see.

Yeah I know, I'm just not sure I have the money for anything more right now. We'll see...
The PF cooling mod is more for FI guys who are making a lot more heat. It just allows better coolant flow on the back side of the motor. I think for N/A (non-race track) situations the oem cooling system is more than enough. If you track your car all the time it would be a good idea.

Yeah this city was crazy with all the superbowl stuff. That was an aweseome game!!!! No I didn't go, I would much rather watch it from home where beers aren't $8 each and I can relax. 
I think I'm going to have the shop doing my machine work also do a little clean-up and porting of the heads. UMS is looking into a price for me right now.
The shortblock will be done next week. I'm not sure how long the heads will take or how many builds UMS has ahead of mine.
