Reading you signature it says 2.5 exhaust, go the 3 inch, will suit the turbo much better. Anywho nice build will be a rocket with the hair drier on it.

I have a slight feeling with that gear you won't need to hope for good power, my guess 220+. what pound you looking at running?

A nice 5 speed conversion with the turbs and LSD will make it a wild ride!

The weekend is only 4 days away. id love for it to be finished by the weekend, but i need to find someone or a place who will bend / weld my intercooler pipes, then i need oil lines, a dump pipe welded up, and need it to be road tuned, which im attempting my self, so when i get all those parts shes goin in:)

before you do anything, make sure you replace the head gasket with a MLS gasket, will save you alot of work.

i found out the hard way, changed two of them before the MLS. grab your self a genuine ford AU gasket they are a MLS gasket, around the $100 mark.
