Great Thread and great car! Love the seats... I was just thinking about doing that too hehe, too much reading sport compact magazine recently...
Anyway I'm dissapointed a little on how the car reacts to intake/exhaust... I'm planning on getting SES too soon... did you get the technosquare ECU yet? I think you should have done headers and high flow cats too(or test pipes or long headers, if you don't give about
).

Thank you!!! I agree, Ecu was planned but Supercharger will come with a piggyback so gotta wait. Headers and Hiflow cats are cool but $1000 for those two things and like $500 for the ECU thats like 1/4 of a SC, just think it would be better to save up a little more and get 100+ rwhp, then who care what kinda hp the exhaust makes its just there to sound cool!!!

LOL, just kidding... but so many promising cars "fall" to force induction so quickly...mphhh. This engine has great potential NA, you'll spend a little more at first but I think it evens out in the end... anyway... even with FI a good airflow is fundamental, from intake to catback. I'd still consider highflow cats headers and ECU... but yeah, I guess you can afford to lose some along the way...
Can't wait to see more, again great thread! Everyone that mods their car should do like you do, a kind of car diary... thoughts, pictures, dynos, movies, etc...
I hope to do the same in spring..... Naturally Aspirated of course
