No, with your face!

Well actually I'm growing a beard so my face is not done.

The car will never be done I'll always be doing stuff to it, but if you're talking about the swap it is done. I drive it everyday

No, with your face!

Awesome build, I have read all 40 pages and your DIY swap as I am hopefully starting a swap in two weeks. Great work.

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the read.

Good luck and don't be afraid to ask questions

Are you happy you didn't go turbo?

Well yes and no.

Yes, because I got the car on the road way faster and it was able to drive it. It was much easier to complete and I'm sure it will prove to be more reliable in the long run.
It was also much cheaper!

No, simply because I could have had a lot of power with turbo, although, most of the power wouldn't have been usable or as reliable.

So more yes than no! I love it everytime I drive it. There is a great amount of power for me and it has proven itself to be reliable.

What cat is that?

There isn't a cat on it yet, that is on the way.

What you see is a vibrant ultra quiet resonator
