Here it is. My 96 GST.  No body kits here. No BIG wings, no ice cream truck tail lights, and I intend to keep it that way. Don't worry, I also intend to get rid of the coffe can on the back (I needed a quick fix for my broken ass stock exhaust).  I intend on replacing it with a Borla 3" in 3" out muffler and replacing the mid muffler with 3" stainless pipe (for better flow, not sound).  I do like how quite it is, but its still pretty restrictive.

The engine is going to need a rebuild soon. I believe the head gasket has gone tits up and the harmonic balancer threw the rubber.  Inside is badly scored (i am sure of it after its overheating incident a while back).  I have another engine in the garage getting ready to rebuild that (4g64 w/63 head and turbo).  I'm not looking for a very high revving engine, but a more streetable, torquey motor. Something that spools quicker.

As far as looks go, the most it will ever get is a 2Gb front end, paint, and rims to suit.

What I want it to look like

Modifications:

Megan Racing 2.5-3" Stainless DP (No cat as DP replaces it completely)
Stainless o2 housing with open dump
Full 3" catback (ebay special, but will change to custom pipes and either Borla 3" or HKS)
Manual Boost Controller set at 17psi
Equal length tubular turbo manifold
Hard intake pipe w/hks filter
HKS SSQV blow off valve (holds the boost much better than stock, not recirced anymore, no stalling problems, will change to a blow through anyway with a 3" GM MAF)

Soon to come

2.4 liter 4G64 w/4G63 head and turbo (My engine is coming to an end in its life and have the 64 block already)
EPROM ECU with keydivers chip (or maybe DSM link, still debating)
Bigger injectors
Walbro 255lph HP pump
BC 280 cams
Ferrea or BC valvetrain (Still researching)
