HP: 164@5500 RPM
Torque: 185@4000RPM
Compression: 8.9:1

Current Performance Mods:
K&N 6" Air Filter~the MAF sensor is such a pain, do yourself a favor and take the whole assembly off if you are going to install an aftermarket filter, I had to use a combination of hacksaw and dremel tool to get the bolts off
Specialty Cold Air Effect~ The details of this mod are covered in the Mod Details section, it really is not as grand as it sounds...
3SX Pulley~first real performance mod...although I really can't feel a difference *sigh*
New Vacuum Hoses~ I know that this really doesn't count as a performance upgrade but some of my hoses were cracked so it definitely needed to be done. A little engine dress-up doesn't hurt either.
Topline Engineering Grounding Kit by BigTyla of 3si.org~ increases voltage and such
Hawk Performance Ceramic Brake Pads (I put "Custom" in the Brake Upgrade because Hawk wasn't listed at the time) They grip very well.
SuperMac Cold Air Wall~ keeping intake temps lower than the rest of the engine bay
Ebay Polished Intake Pipe~ is in constant need of another polish
Swap from SOHC 54mm Throttle Body to the DOHC 60mm TB~ Plenum was also bored to 60mm to match the new TB
MirageCorp Datalogger~ I can now constantly monitor my car while I'm driving. Ooooh, watch the timing go up and down.
IPT tranny cooler~ provides cold start protection and will hopefully double the life of my atx.
Heat Wrapped Headers~ meh, why not?
3sx Fed-Spec Downpipe~ supposedly another 10-15 horses to the wheels...I guess I'm not that sensitive since I can't feel it
Maximal Performance Single Shot Catback~ deep tone though somewhat raspy, better high end and mpg, what is not to like?
Optima Redtop Battery~ may relocate to the trunk at some point
Maximal Performance Single Shot Exhaust
3000GT SL Rims and Kumho Tires
I picked up the rims from another member of 3si.org for cheap. I then slapped some Kumho Ecsta ASX tires on and couldn't be happier with the result.
Calipers have also been painted. Rims were painted as well as can be seen on page one.
In Progress
SmokinVR4 lighted door inserts~ it's going to have Stealth backlit by orange lighting, custom work takes forever...
ESP Testpipe (strictly for track use...yea)
IPT A/T Boost Controller (got it off a member going through financial difficulties and selling parts)
Someday Mods:
IPT Reworked Valve Body

In the beginning...there was an engine bay.

Leather Conversion
Here is the humble beginnings of my leather conversion.
I got the leather free from my dad's business. I removed the ugly carpeting on the center console and replace that with leather as well. Sometime in the future, I may also jump in on a group buy for seat covers from leatherseats.com That ugly upper insert will be changed out with a new insert that says "Stealth" and is backlit by led's.
Exterior
Stainless Steel Door Sills~ It is something that I wanted to have for awhile now. The sills could use some polish...
Those Stupid Lexan Headlights...
I also had to deal with the frequent problem of the crazing of my lexan headlights. I bought a product called "Scratch Off" which had been recommended by others who had dealt with this problem. Unfortunately, my results were mixed.
Here is how my headlights looked at the beginning.
This is how the one side turned out. The other side looked worse after the treatment than when I had begun. It has since been redone and looks fantastic.
