Cool Introducing.... not new, but improved!

Here is my recent rebuild job, as done by Tony at Translog in York, PA -(717) 846-1885. Pictures speak for themselves.

Here is the before:

Drum roll please!

And the After!


My wife calls this one, "Oh Papi!"


It's like a whole new car!

What is that holed piece sitting between the rear shock mounts? Is that welded in?

Speechless! Looks like a whole years salary to me! Nicely done.

I'm guessing the car is in AZ no longer?

EURO911SC: Yeah, the bracket is welded in. He fabricated the piece for the coils. He also had to created the bracket for the Compressor allowing it to be tucked a little lower and to the right.

Tony and his people are great. I left him the freedom he needed, all I asked was for him to get as close as he could to 300hp, he did not disappoint!

Josh D: No, the car is in NOVA with new plates.

My favorite part is the Carbon Fiber shroud and the Fabspeed exhaust, it sounds amazing! He did the build during my deployment in Iraq, I paid him through the year. Can you believe he even installed the stereo system!

Thanks for the comments!

Coils

One coil plate is for the top plugs and the other is for the bottom ones.

Absolutely fantastic. Can you describe the performance?

The great looks are obviously beautiful. You earned it.

Healthy Motor! Welcome back home. you do deserve it.

A few questions. Is this still a 3.0 or did you go to 3.2 with 98mm cylinders? What cams are you running?
