I didnt change all that much exterior wise, I always think cleaned-up stock is the best. The paint is original, just needed a good cleaning and waxing. No dings or rust. Few suspension and engine bolt-ons, and a lot of maintenance. A couple more bigger changes are in the works, but I need to decide how long I’m going to keep it before starting. ---

Wheels, clear corners, smoked side markers. Shaved antenna? Lots o elbow grease on the paint. Anything else? Looks sharp. :tup: ---

is it a turbo? throw a manual boost controller on there and fix that 8psi limit in 1st and second gear. Torque steer is fun anyway. Though, you could just make a steering assembly bracket and fix that guess. for $30 you have 30hp more ---

I already have the steering rack brace/clamp, the torque steer is essentially gone now. I was thinking about getting a mbc+a, but I’m just going to get a Nordic ecu. 22psi\>15psi :tspry: ---
