You're lucky that double shot of NOS didn't blow the welds in the intake..

Replaced my radiator, wired and installed my Delco BCS, relocated horns, and a lot of engine scrubbing.

Wow. Sucks man. Hope that can be remedied and not deemed totalled.

Seems to be mostly cosmetic though. Although it may just be the angle of the picture, but the rear wheel looks to have some camber going on, hopefully the frame isn't bent.

Installed new injectors and pressure regulator.

Did a CT and couldn't be happier. All cylinders are right about 180 and no loss of pressure.

Started installing an IPD intercooler and Nissen radiator today, still need to button things up tomorrow morning. Took me a good chunk of the day getting the old one out and getting the new one in. Had to cut up the fan shroud a little, made some spacers and had to get longer bolts for the condenser/intercooler/radiator. Also mocked up ME7 RIP set up, hope to have it complete soon.

Had a spare euro plate and bracket lying around, and my front bumper already had holes in it, so I figured what the hell.

Thoughts?

It's my beater. Unless I find a good, black hood in the JY for less than $50, I'm not going to replace it or fix it.

Removed part of one of the stupid heatshields that was rattling, put new fog light bulbs in and repaired the housing on one of them (they are called "fog lights" on Volvo's because they always have fog inside them..)

checked the oil...going to change it next week but this is how it looks at 6.5k since last oil change... with 243k on the engine and Turbo and a dipstick O-ring in need of replacing... Not bad!

Pulled the propshaft on the '99 laser tonight. I'm a little pissed at how nice it drives fwd, vibration-wise... after all my messing around with the "front end" phantom shimmy.
