3/20/10

Having some ideas to change up the front end. Zip. Not sold yet but its def different.. This below minus the 3 bar, replaced with a badgeless. Flame away boys

4/3/10

Round 2. Came out much (100x) better.

4/6/10

Got the breather port relocated away from the i/c piping that was kinda crushing it.

4/23/10

Been a while since I've updated so I figuredI;d post something up. The Corrado is running perfect on the new 42# tune ( C2's latest 42# software is excellent). Paint is wetsanded and buffed out = DONE. Never again. I drove it for a total of 30 miles to drop some parts off...she felt great besides the horrible mis-alignment, seized wheel bearings, and blown tie rod end. lol 

I got the front end pulled apart for new brakes, tie rods, ends, wheel bearings, and ball-joints. Should be finished up by the weekend, then off to Rapid-Parts for an alignment on Monday. I also have a mk4 valve cover slammed on there, courtesy of Benzi. Plus... and a big PLUSSSSS, I picked up some kinda motor inside cleaner thing..Devils own ftmfw. My goal of 400whp (reliably) is looking much better 

Got the false trunk floor almost finished up today also 

9/8/10

Been a long time since I updated anything, the car hasn't sold so I might as well keep going with it. 

A/W system is going in shorty, Still gathering parts. The small a/a sucks and its making me pull timing like crazy on hot days, Don't wanna chop up my bumper for a big a/a so the only feasible option is a/w.

So far I got the precision 1000hp i/c and I designed a custom water tank for my trunk, which should be here in a few weeks, its still being fabbed up. Im going to grab a Meziere 55 gph pump, and Ford Cobra "lfp" heat exchanger which is huge but fits perfect. also a set of small Spal fans for the h/e will be coming. All my lines and fittings are going to be 1" npt for nice flow, no 90's etc. 

Heres the water box design: its made to hug the pass. side strut tower.

I changed all the -10's to 1" npt, lol disregard that.
