yes why did u take out the climate control? Also, u must have used 2k2 02 sensors and everything? I didnt know u used 2k2 ecu.

Could u make a list of everything u used 2k2 from ecu to harness to sensors, etc.?

And does anyone know if 5 speed mount bolts on or not? i'm thinking it does too cause those that do conversion never say anything about having to cut off the mount, they probably just use the same mount.

i would mind having on of those. even maybe at somebody house.

but the car still needs work. the reason i took the climate contolr out was i used to have a manual one and everybody knows that it sits on top of the cd player. now my bro and i decided to use a 2k2 digital climate. so i took mine out and now there is a huge hole there which will soon be replaced my gauges. now the 2k2 climate sits below the cd player. it looks so much better.

well plus i got my frankencar intake today and i am so happy. my bro installed it for me. i still need conectors for my clear corners? does anybody have those? they are the connectors that hold the bulbs in. the small and big one. pics i will take later when everything is back to looking like the way it was.

yes i am russian but what is that about? and the reason i dont speak of the power yet is i havent driven the car after i installed the intake. i was going to drive it today and i started it and my bro found a exhaust leak bettween the cat and y-pipe. so i have to fix that tomorrow and hook up my headlights so i can drive at night. so tomorrow i will give details but i dont know how to host videos. anybody want to do that for me?

damnnnnnnnn,

that engine is crammed in there! Awesome that it fits without having to modify the hood! Ultimate sleeper status!

NICE JOB.

Now get that thing on a dyno and at the track!

Do you have vids of the sound it makes revving? It must be sweet!
