o0n8's Super Slow "Build" Thread

o0n8

Still have noob questions
:
74 Schwinn Varsity, 75 Camaro (Project), 04 6 Wagon
For those of you who don't know me, I'm Nate and this forum caused me to have a modding addiction. This thread is for my super slow build which will be super slow due to my lack of time and general laziness outside of work. Plus it's getting cold outside and I have a 7 month old daughter that's more important.

The original plan was to upgrade factory components when necessary with some mods to help some of the factory short comings (plastic pipes, heat soaked SMIC, etc.) I went a little crazy buying mods, installed some while others are still in the garage and some I sold to other members. Then plan now is to see what kinda #s I can put up with stock(ish) boost and a plethora of bolt-ons while I save for forged goodies sometime down the road. I'm not looking for crazy #s, about 250-275 hp at the wheels is good enough for me. I don't think I'll hit that kinda number until I'm forged and up the boost so 175-200whp is I think possible at stock boost.

On to Audrey, she's MSP #1967 in sunlight silver. I bought in mid February 2006 with just over 18k miles. The odometer currently sits at just over 72k.

4 months after I bought her, and after getting rear ended hence the 03 rear lip
