quick update!
paintedmy valve cover metallic silver, couldnt stand looking at that ugly black anymore. swapped my coil pack to the escort one, looking to get an accel one later later on in the year.
Also, finally (after about a 2 months haha) got another alternator, swapped the pulley over to the AEM tru power pulley, not sure if it will do much or anything at all for that matter, but the girlfriend bought it for me for xmas and she keeps bugging me to put it on so i did. lol. Just awaiting my K&N filter from gfx jamie and she'll be good to fire up!
I was going to cheap out and buy a ractive filter for now, but decided to just spend the extra money now and go K&N.
Also looked into purchasing my tuner soon for the turbo kit. (if anyone has any spare turbo parts kicking around let me! i might be interested in purchasing them, i need an intercooler and some plumbing still).
i found the cheapest and quickest way to get a SCT tuner for us canadians is goto steeda in milton and buy one. BUT! get randy (a smart and super nice tuner from FSWERKS) to tune it. i dont think id trust steeda tuning my car...haha
so yes, the zoomer is almost road worthy! just seeing if i can get a good deal on a used intercooler, if not. i'll just spend the money and get a new one! can't wait till dyno day now.
