I'm speechless. Amazing.

"Ooouee kill emThis is more like a "what have I not done to my msp" post lol. I have been brutalized with work and some personal issues such that I have had zero time for any wrenching on the msp. That does not mean I have lost the love by any means however and here I am to prove that with some pics of what is waiting to happen. I have been actively collecting parts for the upcoming build and wanted to show everyone what is brewing and to also spark a little fire in the msp community. There is a lot more than this some things are on the car already and some things are in boxes still from a recent move but this will give you a good idea. The msp is currently resting in the garage the trunk is off and I am removing some rust I found under the rubber weather seal strip ugh I hate rust!! The Volvo s60 handles the DD duties and the mp3 gets to be driven about twice a week when I meet up with some friends for the over 40 skate sessions (if I can handle it that is)! Heres the pics:

Orangevirus was successful, he just got butt hurt and scraped the project. I know he gave it to a guy on facebook that prepaid but don't remember the guys name. He must not have followed through. The ECU is a EEC-V Mustang and Ford Probe used it but of course each was configured differently.Lol I was mentioning it during my interview but they have to sell parts that will make a profit and to do that there has to be a large demand. They were pretty confident however that I may be able to talk to some of the ECU programmers that crack the stock ECUs and write the codes for the Accessport into cracking the Protege ECU to custom tune it. One of the guys cracked his NC Miata ECU for his personal car, even though they don't support them. The Ford EEC-IV ECU in the protege is different than the NC but it can still be done. Ford vehicles with the same ECU have been cracked and had the ability to custom tune for years but (aside from the apparently failed orange virus tune) nobody has done it for the Protege yet. If I can have it done it will be a game changer for sure.

Congrats on the new job!

wellll. it wasnt anything complicated.. but the vibrant cone filter ive been using app isnt high quality and the metal cap on the inside of it came off and blocked my intake lol. i have a 2.25" pipe opening up to a 3" pipe on my sri and it wedged itself in the reducer nicely. turbo had some oil on the inlet of the housing but not the intake pipe, good amount of oil on the hot pipe and prob intercooler, but none on the cold pipe.
im sure the turbo isnt too happy but meh to that right now i guess.
