Okay, I've been wanting to start a thread for my 91 Spirit R/T " EVL SPRT" so here goes.....
I got this car off of this forum almost a year ago and I have had a blast with it. I love "sleepers" and this car is surely one of them. The car was pretty much stock when I bought it except for a 2 1/2 inch straight exhaust, no boost gauge or nada. I added a 3 inch DP w/ electric cut-out, FMIC, WB02, boost gauge, grounding wires, K+N filter, grainger to 15 psi and other small additions. I had a great time beating up on WRX's GTi's and most other cars that came my way. About 3 months ago the turbo gave in and I put her in the garage for the winter. I have really missed my car and it's time to get her back on the road! Since I was replacing the turbo I took off the head and got some TI retainers, new lifters, valve seals, cams seals, arp studs, etc. The car already had a Cometic HG, and Rick D fuel rail. I got a replacement stock turbo (thanks TRYINGBE) but will soon be upgrading to a 50 trim Hybrid, ported exhaust manifold, AFPR, EGT gauge and some other small things. Big thanks to Cindy @ FWDPerformance, I flew out to check out her shop and picked up a few things. She took time out of her hectiic day to show me all her toys and even treated me to some good ol TEXMEX. I recommend her shop to the fullest. Anyway, I plan on big things for my EVLSPRT from looks to performance and this thread will keeps accounts to my Mods. Thanks for checking it out and opinions are welcome
