Well for the time being - no scoop no way... I'll switch to a front mount intercooler when I decide to start increasing the power in this engine. Remember not all ca18det's came with a intercooler at all. One under the hood is better than none at all I guess...

Right now it's at the paint shop, unfortunately my paint guy is a raving alcoholic so he'll work one day then lie in a drunken stupor for the next 3 days...he does good work tho. I helped him out and in one day we fixed about 9 dents and primered a bit. Also, I converted the fuel door to be where it useds the lever to pop it so we had to weld up the old hole from where it had a key before. The car is ready to primer - the nissan Sunny bumper i had was COVERED in like 6 coats of paint, a little more sanding and it'll be ready also. As soon as his drunken stupor is over and he starts answering calls I'll get some pics posted.

I also bought a dual pod for the a pillar and a wideband air/fuel gauge and boost gauge - i'll install that real soon also.

As for a dyno - they havn't invented those in Eastern Kentucky yet, It'll be quite a while before that (I have to drive 2 hours to reach one).
