My engine bay pic.

Oh, I understand. It's one of those things that needs to be tried on a healthy stock car and then on one with some basic mods. Even if it made a massive difference on my N/A that wouldn't mean it would do the same for someone else... my car's got too much in the way of mods.

So, no one likes my engine bay... so much for the hijack.

I thought your engine bay looked fine. For what you say the car is. it is.

I was thinking about getting the blaster coil with iridium plugs and NGK wires. Does the walbro fuel pump really help that much?

The Walbro's really one of those "for down the road" mods. They're reliable as hell though and definitely worth the investment... Supramacist's got a long lived engine in mind.

Bullet proof is what I was aiming for.
I built the car to suit MY driving style.

I can't express to you enough H8's. Any 1 thing doesn't do shite.
You gather up a dozen little things and your shite just got real.

You have to start somewhere. If you do plugs and wires and a blaster coil. Well you still need a new dry flow fliter and fluids check to complete this series. Start swappung out 15$ hoses when ever you get a shot at it and things aren't tight.

Believe me your car has plenty for you to do with it...., without modding anything.
You should get it running as close to stock as possible before mod1.

LOL thats what im trying to do. make it solid before starting any mods but its hard as hell to keep on the road. Ive replaced half the car already I still have the other half to go. Nice engine bay btw.

Thanks.

That's what I did for my build replaced everything I knew could cause me problems and was unsure of.

It's the road less traveled. I'm trying to see still if all of this has been worth it.

These cars are cool. No doubt.
But..., ya. You do kinda have to work on them alot to be able to drive them.

That's part of being a gear head.
