Gents, I wanted to post pics of my car from the day I bought it (2001) till today.
I don't have pics of the motor build since my camera took a crap and lost them but I have plenty of parts to look at.
I hope you guys like it.

Old pics

My first mods were, ATP turbo(T3/TO4B)/S-AFC with 465cc injectors and a stage 3 BSR kit and a boost gauge.

KW V2, IPD sway bars(no pics), Stoptech BBK, 18" Pegs

Engine went POW due to detonation and bent one rod.

New parts arrive

CF hood.

Now the motor

From the first three pictures there. I take it you won Davis this year?

From the last one. Did you decide to go with the BOV on the top IC hose for bling factor? J/w cause I thought you got best performance from a BOV the closer to the intake manifold it is. Might come inhandy if your going to w GT40R.

Car looks really great though. I am really diggin' the iForged.
