Sorry, I wasn't being smart. I just made sure to list all on page 1. I have some small things to do now. I ordered replacement headlamps and fog lamps waiting so can replace them.

True, but at same time I'm no fool if I spend x amount and a muscle car spends x more than likely there going to be faster.

yeah true that but you would rarely ever find a muscle car that is a 4 banger though... they're usually v6 or v8 or so on.
Its harder for us to match their hp with a little bit of mods and upgrades like how they do but at the same time thats why we call it project cars. its interesting and fun for us and we can actually say that we did this and that to get where are at and get major props for our hard effort.
unlike muscle, for example the shelby gt cobras come s/c with like 300+ hp stock. we're at 163 (guesstimating). all they gotta do is change that pulley and their exhaust system and re-tune and dyno and they could call it done. lol
well thats what i think cause i work at a auto shop where they build race/drift cars (on the side ) while everyone else repairs and paint customer's cars. everyone there basically has muscle. some people give me crap for my 4 banger but i dont care, its my car not theres...

I decided to check / change my plugs today. I pulled them out and realized they were v-power plugs not iridium. I had sent the shop Iridiums to use and now know they did not. They will be getting a call from me tomorrow and I also have one stripped coil hold down bolt. I am pretty ____ed. Getting back to the original point after reading the plug the 7 heat range is too hot for my build. Glad I ordered two sets of 8EIX from Dezod! Thanks Paul, got them yesterday, perfect timing. I'll put these in tomorrow and I know the heat range will be correct, also I know it will have iridium in like it should have.
