Can't you fit the turbo kit and use as a weekend toy and get another car for a daily?

itll only use more fuel when you're booting it. keep the boost off and itll be as economical as ever.........................*easier said than done tho* :lol:

I would go for black chrome tail lights instead together with a black center panel :-k

Why did you put your gauges into that position, they fit well between the radio and the openings above it. You just have to modify the piece a little pit. I made it that way and it came out great.
