From LX to MSP- my build.

you are gonna have to buy a built motor at some point so i say go ahead and buy the 4000. but talk him down a bit.
 
bought a p5 yesterday from scott, going to swap all parts onto my LX that i can. therefore the lx will be drivable again. it won't be twin charged yet. but i'll be daily driving a badass car! woot!
 
well guys i did some work yesterday on the lx/p5. got a lot of crap unbolted. used the p5 rear hubs and brakes and bolted up my coilovers to the rears. the speed 3 wheels look good! however, i'm trying to find some speed 6 brake rotors and pads to bolt up instead.. we'll see. so far so good. pics coming up soon. also if you'd like to follow it, my facebook page has pictures up in its own thread

just search exile motorsports under pages. NOT TRYING TO ADVERTISE! just letting you know there's other places i'm adding these, which tend to be faster.
 
the other day i went up to the shop. we unbolted and pulled the front hubs, motor, trans, harness, dash.

tonight we're going to the shop to install my dash and wiring in the LX. and the entire interior again.

before the motor and trans goes in, i need to order new motor mounts(the p5 ones fell apart) so i'm getting AWR full set 90 duro, front lower control arms, new front bearings,kartboy shifter bushings, inner/outer tie rods, coolant hoses.. and some other small randomness. it's coming together! pics up on facebook!
 
bumping!

went to the shop today, got the dash together and back in. fitted and finished the roll cage in the rear and cut the plastic in the back for that!

things are moving right along!

ALSO i'm setting up to be a vendor for AWR, so my AMM status is about to be legit once i get confirmation!

and lastly, once the car is together, i'll be fabbing, and fitting the supercharger first, then i'll be purchasing dinos turbo kit to put on the car with a GT 35R:)
 
how big of a blower are you pairing with that turbo?
I'm not quite sure how big it is..name wise.. but it's the trd blower for the TC.as seen here.
