Very Nice build Pete!

I don't know what I would do if I had to go without my car for almost two years!

Looking forward to the end result. I will be the 30th person to say, Yes, the 9 bumper is better than the 8.

Thanks for keeping up with the thread guys.

It's certainly been a long time coming but I had other projects on the go and didn't get around to picking up the car from CBRD until last month! It's such a different car, rips so hard with the new 2.2L and Garrett GTX 3071R!

Chad really did an outstanding job on everything. His attention to detail stood out and now I've got a car that I'm confident in.

Anyways, I made a video of my adventure to CBRD so check it out if you're interested.

Bumping this up from the dead for the few of you that are interested how the car is currently.

I've been daily driving it and loving the car. Runs great and makes awesome power. Have a slight dip in RPMs in stop and go traffic but I'm only assuming that it's the cams.

The more I drive this car though the more I want to keep dailying it, **** the sucker gets decent gas mileage at about 26mpg on the highway!
