it's only been slightly modified...

list of mods:

EZ30R Conversion
VIPEC ECU

Slightly modified :rofl:... I swear officer, my car is completely stock... Even my T-shirt says so :lol:

So are you looking at putting forced induction of that sucker?

if he was it'd have to be a supercharger. Why would you go to the trouble of building those headers only to throw them away to fit turbo headers?

thanks guys...

yeah i was thinking about maybe forcing some boost down it's throat at some point in time...

but the old saying goes do it once do it right... so i'm gonna save up and pull it out so i can forge the internals, drop the compression ratio and pump it full of boost...

i'm figuring 300kw atw wouldn't be hard...

but it'd be expensive...

and i'd have to be running a great gearbox to deal with it too...

welcome to the forum

I like what you've done to your car. Original!

Where did you get the headers from? How much?
