He's all over the facebook for sale page. It ended up being $10 cheaper after duty and shipping than buying it locally.

It performed well before, and will definitely do well until I have money for name brand later on.

The bov is good too, but I may be getting a Turbo XS RFL

not even close..

The plan is that once my bottom end comes back from the shop I'll get it built, then hopefully swapped in shortly after. When I swap it in that's when I'll put the clutch in.

Right now I'm just trying to save up some money for everything, working like crazy this month. I'll post up as soon as something happens.

Unless the engine goes (hopefully not), I'm not swapping it in for a bit.

No, I bought it off of "Brian Casey" on the SRT4 Parts FS facebook page. Well I shipped him my stuff and he'll make it for me. He seems to do really nice work, and I knew I'd do a bad job if I attempted it myself :p

Yeah, it was more than that.. double din + gauge pods + traction/defrost/power outlet molded into the lower cubby +shipping. Probably shouldn't have spent the money on it, BUT I wanted it.

He has a whole bunch of pictures on the facebook srt4 pars for sale page. I'll obviously post a pic when mines done.

Started putting my car into "winter mode" again :/. Snow will hopefully be coming soon :D. Raised the rear an inch, and put the winter steelies on. I was playing around with the idea of plasti dipping them blaze blue or blaze pink, but decided not to. Also, got the ski/snowboard attachment ready to go on the car. I'll be raising/swapping the front tomorrow.
