I am in Eastern PA. I have not done many HP upgrades. I am going to add a CAI I should see about a 20 HP increase in power. The only thing I am doing is setting up the to handle a 50-75 shot NoS. But that will not come untill the rearend has been upgraded and I am happy with the car. Sorry I can not give you hand even if I did live close I have so little time, that is why this build is moving so slow. Infact I need to get to bed cause I have to work tomorrow. A Sunday!

The motor is back in but i just had about 5 hours worth of time to work on it. I didn't bother taking a picture. its just a motor with nothing hooked up. I bent one of the brake lines bad enough I need to replace it. It sure seems like there is a lot of work left.
Going away on Vacation next week so the next two weekend are shot.

Big score today. I picked up some rims/front brakes and a Y-pipe off a 2000. I will rebuild and powder coat the Calipurs, red I think. I will pick up some of those zinc plated rotors/pads off ebay. 2 tires are shot two are almost new. I should have some time this weeked to move the build along.
He still has a running high miles motor and 5 speed tranny and he is letting stuff go cheap.
