I'm actually not sure what the bumper is. I can probably get ahold of the guy I just bought it from and ask though. I didn't ask about the kit at all.

strangely, as much as im not into kits, im diggin your car a lot...the wheels arent that bad, somehow they work, more showy but if you like them thats fine (though you just bought the car so im not sure)

car is unique, but my one advice is since you bought it modded, youve gotta make it YOUR car now...:mwink:

I am more into the go than the show. I'm already starting to gather the goods to boost it. Been doing alot of cruising the site to see what applications react best with this platform and which direction I want to go with it.

well in that case, when you figure out what you are thinking you will do, post it on up and people can help you tweak it for the best setup...

plus any tech convorsations will be great info to put on the site

I want to go with a turbo set up. But for now just a mild one with super low boost. I still have a lot to learn and it'll probably be quite a while before I get everything installed. I don't just want to throw something on my car that I don't fully understand. Right now I'm helping my dad with a kenne bell supercharger on his car and then we'll probably turn the attention to mine. In the mean time I am ordering a wide band a/f, boost, egt gauges. Along with the turbo timer and boost controller. I'm going to have all the supporting goodies before I get the kit itself. I figure I'll be safer that way and still have time to decide what kit I want to go with later down the road. I don't just want to half-ass it together.

Welcome the car looks good. Looks like your front bumper is taking a beating though.

yeah, it's pissing me off. I can't go anywhere without scraping on things. The smallest pebble hits it. Going from my truck to this is insane. I got stuck at the bank the other day because I couldn't get out the exit from the drive through without ripping off my bumper. I like it low but damn. I'm getting used to it though and it's better now. Just had to totally switch up the way I drive.
