Alright guys, my parts are starting to come together slowly. Just wondering if any of you guys have ever swapped the turbo and injectors on our cars? Or installed a fuel pump or front mount?

Experience? I wish. I'll be doing my own this spring. Looks like its going to be an adventure.
Directions for the new crib- 95N to the Aberdeen/Churchville exit onto rt.22 I think its exit 89 but don't hold me to it. Merge onto rt.22 eastbound towards Aberdeen. Follow this road up to the 5th light. This light will not have a street name on it. You will see signs for rt.40 at this light. You need to take a right at this light and head down the hill towards rt.40 westbound. at the bottom of the hill you will need to turn left then immediately right onto rt.40 westbound. Stay on rt.40 until the third red light which will be Old Philadelphia rd. There will be a Dodge dealership on your right with a big sign asking you if you need a Hemi. At this light turn left. Approximately 100 ft down this rd you will see a sign on your right hand sign for Wrights mobile home village. Turn right immediately after this sign. Head down the lane and I'm #41. You'll see the car out front. Any problems give me a call. The address is 1121 Old Philadelphia Rd. Aberdeen MD 21001 for you mapquest junkies. And before the flaming begins I allready know that I am now Bonified white trailer park trash.

yeah Friday sounds good to me. I need to work on my tailights as well. I put in LED's for the back up lights but may switch them to one of the brake lights bulbs. As far as me showing up early I will call you before I leave so you can change your wife beater to a cleaner wife beater.

Well Speedy live rather close ok pretty far away for me but perhaps closer to you. speedy has done all of his mods so I would suggest ask him or just call vivid up they can tell you how to do it over the phone. Now as far as cutting your front bumper perfectly good luck with that.

well goose has been set up with blue interior lights now. Didn't get a chance to get to the gauges since it was dark and cold out and we had a couple small problems that we fixed while doing the mod. Other than that good times everything went well and we found a way to tone down some of the bright spots with masking tape which you could see through somewhat. I would have taken pictures but forgot the camera Nonetheless Goose's stereo system is set up like money and has quite the array of switches in the cabin now but looks good.

speaking of sound systems . . . i finally found the speakers I want to buy:

those things are killer. retail :$1299 per pair. found them on ikesound for 560.

the only other problem other than the astronomical cost is that they can handle 190 watts rms. so an amp that would power 4 speaks would probably not only cost a fortune, but be about the size of a football field.

Man thats wierd. Lost a couple of posts. I posted a couple days ago but now they are totally gone. My lights look good as hell. Thanks to manny for driving up and helping out. I shoul dget my A-pillar done this week. B- long time no see. Hope the show went well. Those are some nice as quarts. Something about speakers that come in a suitcase make em special. There was an amp out there can't remember which manufacturer, but it came in its own lockable stainless briefcase. I think it retailed for some astronomical fee like $10,000 or something. It would have made a good match for those.

haha yeah then i could just carry them around together and never install them in my car.

I might end up going with the next level down the mb offers. they are like $180 a pair. $560 is still damn expensive for some speakers plus the amp to power them would be up there as well.
I was thinking of getting a directed 6 channel to power the four components and then another seperate amp for a sub. not quite sure on what sub yet. I still need to check out your setup goose to see how the fiberglassing came out.


***oh and also****

i just ordered a professional dent removing kit from my matco tools guy. so if any of yous guys need some dents pulled (without messing up the paint) let me know. it will just be a small fee to help me pay back the cost of the kit. and to cover some of the supplies

it is supposed to be able to take dents out from little door dings to larger ones as big as a hand. it all depends on the dent and the location.

sometimes you can still get a crease in the metal and sometimes it can actually make the paint chip on those crease lines. those problems only usually happen on larger dents.

so we shall see
