Oh yeah, I still have to polish the compressor housing some more. I want to be able to see my ugly mug in it.

I decided to polish the housing just to do it and because it's for my buddy Crypto. I want him to get blinded when he opens the hood of his ride. I usually just port and polish heads and manifolds but who has a polished evo 8 turbo? Yes, I get bored too It's alot of work to get the mirror finish.

Yeah, once you start, your comitted to it. Any part that is cast in sand is a real pain in the *** to polish and make look pretty, to my standards anyway. I work on it a couple hours at a time cuz those die grinders are hell on my arthritis. I'm gonna try to do something new with it also. If it works out, I'll post pics.

Your pretty close! It's alot of work. And unless your going for a show car, it would'nt be worth the money. But, I may consider doing a few more.
