The 4age is still unfortunately sittin. Two of my 18's cracked so now im ridin on some BSA 17's. They were silver but i painted them gunmetal grey. Got a new cd player, infinity kappa 12's, rear sunvisor and tint since my last update.

its not visible but the exhaust pipe was painted with DEI exhaust silicone and wrapped in exhaust wrap from the cat to the y pipe. long story short: it helps to maintain high temperatures in the exhaust since its larger and more free flowing than stock. With duals and larger piping, the exhaust cools before it exits the pipes causing a loss in torque. Hotter gases move much faster than cooler gases and it takes the car more power to push out those cooler gases...so basically the wrapping helped to "replinish" some of that lost power. If you dont understand then you got the wrong hobby and website!!

Your choice of engine and planned modifications sound great. Good pics. Noticed you didn't mention the crankshaft, there isn't much you can do there. Similar swap done before on stock blacktop internals which resulted in a noticed improvement in Torque and Maximum speed in each gear. Longer Timing (Crankshaft) belt is required. Yes, I have come across that company, havn't had the experience of their service. Keep us posted on your harness conversion.
