        Just a question, Did you get the turbo new or did you get it off of a used car?

        Thanks and the car looks badass, I would love to turbo my car but have to research alittle more.

                Oil filter placement is fine.
                However....

                1) As stated, fram is crap.
                2) You need to remount the filter housing rotated 180*. As it sits now, your filter drains out all oil when the car sits, meaning initial start up is sans oil for until pressure builds and fills the filter/lines/channels again. Not good.


                Clean seats.
                -the driver rear seatback lever is from a passenger seat, its curved the wrong way. If the details matter to you....
                Below the radar...

                  Looks good, matt. I hope to have a similar setup in the near future...that would be bomb.

                    Not really digging the engine bay at all. Way to many colors and the intake/valve cover color looks like crap. just my .02

                    Your car is a piece of shit.

                      Fram, all that work on the engine and no Mahle?

                      Otherwise looks great.

                      Diggin the interior.

                        Any filter worth its weight will have a drain back check valve. All the decent German ones do, now the Fram one probably doesn't.
