Your car looks so clean with what it has on it now. It will be sick once you get some power behind it. WOW 18 and your dropping all this money into it. What are you doing that I'm doing wrong? lol Nice job man! Props.

you're on the right track with your car for only being 18. Looks great.

although, I'd recommend saving that money toward a house one day.

BUT hey, if you got it like that, GO FOR IT!!!

OP, looks like you have all your ducks in a row, can't wait to see the finished product.
you can buy the parts for 20k but this doesn't include install and tune and all of the additional parts needed. Also, if you are going in for a built motor, you wouldn't go for the 520bb kit. Only a newb that has a completely unmodded car would come up with an argument that you did.

I'm guessing Scott will be doing the build? I might have to swing by the shop to see it!

I think this guy trolls for fights with anything even remotely related to boost

Anyways, back on topic. More pics of your girlfriend, now that we all know she's legal

How is my argument stupid? Those are facts. I will argue the 520bb kit w/ a built engine with you all day long! Why would that be a bad idea, especially when you can upgrade to the 700bb later on. Have fun paddle shifting your automatic while plowing some snow .


ZT967, I couldn't agree with you more! I think that's what he does. He doesn't know that I've built two different turbocharged cars in the past and I have quite a bit of knowledge about them.
