Borla intercooled tips are not cheap, but very nice

oh yea, I forgot the pic of the a/f gauge, and my custom switch panel in place of the a/c controls. Since I don't have an A/C, whats the point of having controls right?

Very nice. Where did you get those runners? Are they the old TPIS siamese runners? I'd like to get a set like that.

believe me in AZ you don't need heat.

I have a method to keep me cool or warm, if it's cold I drive with the windows up, and if its hot I dirve with the windows down, simple as that .

Yeah I know what you mean, I'm still undecided on what I should do though. Hopefully I'll be moving to az soon, but I think I want to keep my heat incase I ever go home to visit or go on any road trips with my car. I dunno....

BTW- How did you smooth it out? Weld in some plates or something? Most that I've seen just have some plates screwed over the holes that were there, but in the pictures I don't see any in yours, it looks completely smooth. The car looks very good!

That bar across the engine is a Strut Tower Brace, to stiffen the front suspension. Very nice ride man, I like those switches very much.
