UT Let's try this again!!!

my name is craig, I live in utah and just bought a 93 single turbo. cant wait to tinker and start messin with stuff!! the car is pretty solid so I think I will start with the interior. maybe some different seat, swap out the tan for some more black and cage it up!! I want to chrome the plenum and the charge pipes too..

I have bee\n a VW guy for the past 7 years so I decided to try something new. I have built (from stock) a full out show car from a mkiv gti vr6 that I turboed, pained, gutted, and completely redid, and also a 68 RHD squareback that I painted and redid the engine bay and interior on, just to name a few.. I cannot wait to start messing with this thing!!! here is some info on it;
Black Rx7 touring 450hp-ish
New engine with better Apexi around 50k miles 100k on body
Greddy TD07 single turbo, HKS ignition amplifier, Apexi Power FC with commander, Rx7 store extreme fuel system, Rx7 store block off plates, Aeromotive FPR, HKS Super Sequencial BOV, HKS jumbo wastegate, Vacuum is very simplified, full 3" custom cat-less exhaust with megan racing muffler, V mount intercooler set-up, Kouki Spoiler, R1 strut bar, Aem wideband with digital gauge, blacked out JDM gauges, with accurate tach, sony bluetooth stereo, polk speakers, commander holder, New optima battery, Antenna, wiper, sprayer and emblems shaved, R1 wing, Fenders rolled, 18" staggered stern wheels, New wheel well liners, Bilstein shocks with adjustable perches, and H&R lowering springs. ACT XTSS stg4+ clutch kit and ProLite Flywheel installed, Redline Transmission oil and brake fluid, etc...
I will post up pictures once I KNOW this damn thread made it up. last time I spent like 45mins for nothin haha

can't wait guys.... hopefully these forums are as friendly as the vws I am used to!!

thanks!! I am excited to start mobbin around in it!! I am getting rear tires on it tomorrow (falken fk452 245/45/ZR18) because the ones that are on there are BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALD!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
I want to set the rev limiter on it too, the guy who had the car before me didnt know a whole bunch about the car or the PFC so I gotta go through and try and figure it out myself.
I am gonna gut out that interior too, because that tan is obnoxious

Thanks everyone!! I took it out a few times last week, I have a small exhaust leak and I think the tune could get a once over. (not to mention dyno papers) lol

I'll be pulling the plenum and charge pipe next week to powdercoat or chrome. I haven't decided yet. Was thinkin chrome or purple. What are your guys' thoughts?
