Well, I just pulled my car into the shop and I'm on my way to driving my DSM again..only thing is...and it may sound stupid..but, I'm pulling the engine out of my parts car..and I'm just doing the drop..nothing else. It smokes alittle but oh well. I need my car back on the road because I'm selling my truck, note too high. But I'll have another 1.8 sitting at my house so I'm just gonna research it, and turbo the b*tch. I may change my mind and just do a 4G63T swap..who knows. But if Kalani wants a job of turboing my burned up 1.8 he's more than welcome. :)

I believe that he will do it you as long as you ship the car to Hawaii...:D :P

If I knew you were serious you'd prolly get it by tomorrow. This Engine I'm dropping in my car right now doesn't have an a/c compressor..I'm not sure if I'm gonna take mine off or not. My g/f won't ride with me without the a/c so I think I'm gonna put it on the engine. There's a shop that said they'd charge about $2,000 to turbo my car with all the accessories, gauges, wiring, piping, blahzay blahzay..I'm just not sure if it's worth it. Anyway..tight mag..when's it comin out? :)

Well, as of Thursday my car has been back on the road. I was surprised 'cause it hardly smokes at all. After sitting up for a few days it burned a good bit..plus I still had all that antifreeze, oil, and gas trapped in my tailpipe from when I blew a headgasket. But she runs good. My custom made intake pipe was crushed in the process so I have to get another intake pipe..I'm not sure if I'm gonna go with another custom or if I'm gonna by an aftermarket. But I've already bought 2 Punch 10"s for my soundsystem. I'll let you guys know how everything is working out with it.
