I did a little more than I had planned......

Stainless braided hoses, Canton overflow tank, painted radiator cover, fuse box cover, new head unit and speakers, sound deadener in the doors, trunk, and back seat areas, painted my axle, repainted my calipers, 2 coats of zaino, trunk mat, headrest covers, and SHR louvers enroute.

Usually the only thing the "OFF ROAD USE ONLY" disclaimer means is that they didn't want to pony up the money to get the parts certified. Now if you're going with a catless X-pipe that's obviously a different story...

I have order Comp cams stage 3.. the Ford Racing Delete plates (Thanks Tillman) will also get the Steeda Underdrive pulleys and the GTA mufflers. Also have to have my Cervinis front bumper repainted... Am also thinking of switching from the JLT to the C&L racer intake...

Chris Jones installed one and it took a while to get all the parts, the kit is so new ,that he had to keep calling to get the right parts for the install,but it's still a nice kit. He also said it was a pain to do.

I also had a few problems getting all the parts. I am over a month behind where I planned to be with the upgrade but I have the new motor buttoned up and we are starting to trial fit the turbo parts. The biggest pain is the battery relocation to the trunk and moving the fuse box and computer. Here are a couple shots of the progress.

My mod list is in my sig. Actually, it's a spring mod list as I don't have a heated garage. I got the UDPs installed last weekend when we were in the 60s but the car is still in storage.
The wait is driving me nuts!

Your Car is looking sweet

I remembered when you first got it.... Perhaps we should meet up sometime and compare mods..
