That's a sweet 1G, man. Kudos for that. I'm sure you've heard a lot of the turbo talk already, but what's keeping you NT for now? Want to supercharge it, maybe? Just the allure of doing something different?
Curious.

Don't worry kid, I got you covered, lol.
Nice clean ride. I like the battery relocation. And it's interesting how you also relocated the pulleys and tranny. Nice clean mod ;-)
Welcome :wavy

well the car sees some auto-x action. and with the current mods it has already put me into street preppared class. if i were to go boost it would put me into race preppared due to the car not being turbo'd stock. kinda sucks but rules are rules. plus i just kinda like being different. not to mention its WAY more reliable then my previous turbo DSM's ive owned!

I really think that battery mod is kinda silly. It should be relocated to in front of the axles. As for the pulleys, that's a lot of work just to have those pulley's get more air.
