Mr. Tureno (or is it Trueno?) what would you consider for mods since you sound to be an expert in this field?
Perhaps you have a different definition of 'heavily' in your mind and don't know about regulations in HK. My friend wanted to stick with mods that can be interchanged back to stock form without too much work. The reason being is that in HK if he was ever caught speeding and the police sees that he has done some 'work' on his car, they can request for him to get the car inspected by an expert to verify of the mods. The normal procedures is that upon inspection, any car that is verified to be modeed is impounded by the police for keepsake. So hence the reason most parts may seem to be bolt-ons and what not.

I have no idea what you're talking about. Maybe his engine has forged internals, huuuuggggeeee turbo, ECU upgrade, wicked suspension, twin plate clutch and is outputing 450hp...there are stuff you can't see you know...

i dont think i've ever seen a colt turbo in north america
Say.. I'd really be interested in getting gauges into the dash exactly like this setup. The 3 gauge setup actually looks slightly LARGER than 1DIN though... is it? I know the Defi gauges used in that setup (also the ones I'm looking at ) are 2 1/6" wide, so width wise It should fit fine into 1 DIN (which is just shy of 7") but I think height wise that's larger than 1DIN... is there a in dash mount kit to fit those 3 gauges in there?
