    Is this a street car? If so what are you doing for a HVAC/defroster? I don't know about Texas but in Pennsylvania you can't legally pass state inspection without a defroster.
    How to remove, install or convert to pop out windows

      Yeah street car not a daily driver though. I installed a little 12v heater for defrost and driving into cold areas. Let me see I have a pick of the unit here somewhere.



      It's behind the radio just gotta reach in and flip the switch for heated defrost. Although they don't check for that in South Texas lol

      I installed this unit after driving it to west texas in the winter. The complete hvac system was deleted by the PO

        That's wild to me. In Canada you dont even need a defroster.

          That is a good idea. If the HVAC box was completely removed there would be plenty of room for the little heater. Do you have a part number or link for the heater?

          No visibility out of the front window is a safety hazard. As long as there is a windshield defroster the rest of the HVAC doesn't have to work to pass.

            I dont disagree, just crazy that its law down south and not in Canada where morning frost is nearly year round.

                    For those that are curious. I work in the oil field and my wife sends me car part porn as the pieces come in lol.

                    O2 sensor bungs came in.



                    This guy will eventually be my Screamer pipe



                    Blow off valve adapter



                    I'm planning on trying out this super cheap BOV from Amazon since I'm going to be running low boost. Somewhere along the lines of 8 psi maybe slightly more.



                    More to come. I got a pretty sweet external wastegate coming from precision along with a bunch of fittings and hoses.
