Fixed boost leak with J-B Kwik, Put in Kicker DS-65 speakers to replace rear factory ones. Sounds a lot better but its imbalanced with stock fronts still in. Will be doing those next weekend.

Well since it's nice and warm out I decided to put on some of my Rexpeed stuff that has been sitting in the closet:



I also put in my Agency Power under hood shifter bushings. Took a little drilling to get them to fit right, but they've definitely improved the feel.

Tuesday: Got new gates kevlar timing belt installed (everything in time...UGH had to make an SOS call to a buddy to come help me do that)

Hopefully tonight it won't be raining when I get off work and I can get the new gates acc belt on and get it buttoned back up and refilled with coolant and running.
So I got everything buttoned up. Cranked it...and it jumped timing immediately...

So it sits and waits for me to tow it to a buddy's house so we can work on it inside and not have to depend on the weather.

I love it. it sounds like a rocket ship! I currently am using a 45 degree turn down. If I keep it straight piped i will have it ran out of the bumper. i also have a new buschur SD pipe that sounds awesome but not quite as awesome. Lol
