^why is your budget smaller this year? 2011 should be a good year for sure, and looking forward to seeing everything take shape! IMO if you make a new thread you shouldn't get too specific with the title. Who knows how your mind will change by the time you're done!

How about "R/TErnie's progressive build/racing thread - Championship Edition" Happy New Year to you and the fam. I'll see you soon (need to at least hit up the Sonic to see Mikey off).

I'm going to be following this thread, I never really looked into the 2.2, but it seems like a good motor. Good luck with your build!

P.S. Awesome fab work!

I just ordered some pieces from AMS last week and my new 18x10 rpf1s and 295/30/18 R888s should be in soon!

My neon is running, but I'm finishing up a few little things.... Catch can and the fuse box supports. It still needs to get an alignment, so hopefully I can drive it over to king Volvo tonight and get that done before tuesday . Take it on it's maiden voyage!
295's

Can't wait to see how the new wheels look.

Bump for pics of the elusive Neon Looking forward to your new build too dude; HKS would be spool master on the 2.2. Should keep you busy until the EFR arrives.

I'm nearly 100% on board with o-ringing my block. I'm still doing some reading.

Tires will be mounted tomorrow for sure...I'll do a test fit and see if I can't borrow the fender roller, heat gun, and IR gun so I can keep rolling the fronts and rears. I'll have to do that relocation of the rear bumper hardware.... trailing link is already cleaned up, I may give it a hit with the angle grinder to pick up some more space.

Block, crank, rods, and pistons are with ER getting machined at the moment. The Evo is back in the garage...the neon has achieved full DD status once again I'll have to take some pictures of the neon. I know its still a neon, but that's what makes it great lol.

I'll also be starting on making my mold for my carbon trunk.
Nice Ernie! Have you worked with laying carbon before?
