Awesome car bro!! I wouldnt mind seeing some interior pics along with some engine bay shots..Great job man!!!
The front end isn't my style, but all the work seems top notch. Very well done man. I'm a fan.
Nicely done! What transmission is in this?
AWESOME!!! I really like what you did with the..schit man I like Everything you did with the entire car..Props bro!!! Yea noobie my azz lol you know your stuff man!!!
where did you find those headers?
Love the car, I remember looking at updates of it back when I was deployed years ago.
Mike(Needs Boost) Dont get me wrong Im not saying the welds are bad but by the looks of them Im thinking its a custom header..I could be wrong tho...
Either I misses something or am mixing up cars. Didn't this used to have abuilt Turbo 2.2 in it?

Thanks for the comments.
The headers are custom. And yes, some of the welds are trash.
At some point I'll be building a new set that's actually equal length. These were my first attempt, and that's why I didn't get them coated.
I had a 2.2 for years, but never a turbo. Maybe you're thinking of JuicedZ4? He has a blue 1991 2.2 with turbo.
About the bumper- yes, I agree it's ugly. I was never a fan of the "spyder" kits. I kept it because it weighs less than the factory urethane. I may end up cutting off the lower lip. It's such a PITA trying to avoid potholes and driveway aprons all the time. Other than one or two guys running bags, this is probably the lowest 2nd gen out there, and I've still got maybe another inch or more of downward adjustment in the coilovers. Although, with 500+ lb springs all around, there really isn't that much travel anyways.......
