    Just put a down payment for the shop to get a donor car to swap in an engine and convert to 5-speed manual, including changing the wiring harness and ECU. I also had a custom boomslang harness made for the manual ECU so that I can just plug my eManage Ultimate in without having to hack apart the new OEM harness. Hope to have my car up and running in a few weeks.

    Nah, it never sold and I just didn't have the heart. I am keeping the turbo on there at only 7 pounds though. Eventually, once I have a second car, I'll put it in shop again to put low compression pistons back in (without overboring it).
