This is my personal car build up. Myself and some friends including Mike along with Inline 6 Performance (Mike Nunezz).

 

I purchased the car as a NA auto as I hadnt decided what exactly I wanted to do with it. It has extreme sentimental value to me so instead of leaving it mediocre was decided to do a build up on her. It has been pretty well documented. I let a shop do the original TT swap as at the time I didnt have the free time to do it. What a mistake. In any event here is the time line.

 

in 2005-2006 after the TT swap was done:
