BR's Project White, "completed". Lots of information.
The car is impressive in the torque/response department for sure. Thanks for the compliments. I wish I had more video of it.
Today we pulled the car in to do some more work on it. We put on a reject 02 housing when we built the car, fit horrible. Ted pulled the reject off, replaced it with a quality piece and put the new high flow oil feed line on the turbo.
While he was doing that I fiberglassed our front block off plates into the fascia and installed the carbon fiber lip.
Tomorrow we are going to put in a fresh Bushwacker Stage 1 trans (1st gear failed in the trans that I used in the car) and I am going to install ARP wheel studs all the way around. The wheel studs are so I can install my other set of wheels on it for this weekends Buschur Racing Sport Compact Shootout. I will be running my Mickey Thompson drag radials on the car for that event. I want that 10 second pass.
Also going on the drivers side seat belt will be a CG Lock. One of the greatest inventions ever. For those of you not familar with it, it turns your seat belt into a lower lap belt "harness". You put your seat belt on and then can pull the lower section TIGHT to hold you in the seat. They work freaking great. I have one in the RS. For autocrossing/road racing and just a more secure feeling it is the best thing you can do to keep yourself in the seat short of putting a 5 point harness in.
Next after this stuff is the Jack of Trades alt map switch that his fiance' was kind enough to wire for me and send out. Then JCS Banks is going to give me a hand switching over to speed density on the stock computer. Should all be exciting stuff.

Thanks 8thwonder.
Got the car in the shop today and finished up all the things we wanted to and a few more. I installed the factory strut tower bar after it has been stripped and then powder coated in the wrinkle black finish, looks excellent! Also lowered the ride height on the car, about 3/4" of an inch, also looks a lot better and should help with cornering. I also installed new ARP wheel studs so I can run a spacer and the wheels off my RS on the car for this coming weekend. Now it has Mickey Thompson Drag Radials on it and I'm hoping with all the changes the car will run well into the 10's, maybe even with me behind the wheel.
This car is such a pleasure to drive. I've been driving the EVOX which is great too but now that the car is all fixed again and I've made some more changes I drove it home tonight...what a great car.
BR Sport Compact Shootout is this Sunday at Summit Motorsports Park. Try to make it out if you can, maybe you will get to witness my first 10 second pass in this car
Bad Bish is running too and we are hoping for 8's from it. There are going to be some fast cars there.
Thanks for all the continued interest. I'll get some new pictures as soon as I can get Jarrod or Nick to take them.

Buschur,
That intake pipe looks alot different then the one you have displayed on your website. Not talking about the color, but it seems to have a different angle. I like it alot better.
