i love it, wot isn't amazingly faster but low/mid throttle is waay better. The powerband is perfect now i think, you shift and have immediate power in the next gear. the thing just PULLS!

I dont know if i would do it again, huge pain in the ass but overall i love it and was worth it to me. Now i will be concentrating on minor cosmetic stuff.

I have no idea, never did a computerized alignment, just with a tape measure. I would say around 2.5 or so. I didn't want to have to roll my fenders.

well guys the tranny took a shit on me. Pretty sure the guy that assembled it for me did it wrong. I will be hunting for a new set of 3.94 internas. Soo i have to take greyhound home and pick up the 95 so i can get to And from school. The acr will have to wait till i can get a trailer up here to tow it back to my parents house.

Ahhhh tis is true i forgot he hasnt done any T350's except yours,that still blows ass tho. Im not sure if i'll beable to install the turbo on time i was gonna set it up so i could drop the car off to him on the 25th for the install but he said he would rather do it when i get a AFR gauge,& he cant weld aluminum so he cant tap the oil drain line in the oilpan.
aside from the port fueler hook up,im damn near ready to do it myself,i can pretty much get it all together,I'm jus afraid of the dam port fueler install.

On another note Isa(my buddy) gets paid tomorrow so he wants me to go over to his house & order the clutch. I went to Antioch Dodge & had um look up the part number for his clutch & cross referenced it with mine & they are the same. I'm not 100% sure when he'll have the $$ to install it but im almost certain he'll come up on quick cuz he wants his car back(tired of askin to borrow moms whip)

Well if you need a hand with ur car let me kno mang you kno im here :thumbup:

Hey man, I got your post in my thread. The tranny is a dealer replacement so it has less miles on it than I originally posted. I cant tell for sure at the moment when the thing was replaced but it was under the power train warranty and the guy had the car since it had 200 miles on it! I would venture to say it hasnt been long since the car now has 97,000 miles on it. Cant see these trannies going out much sooner than that!!!

I would love to help you out.....let me know your thoughts on this and shoot me an offer.
