I would be kinda dissapointed if all I got was 180 hp with 8psi. Are you running a FMIC?

well i just thought i would give everyone an update, the car is running really well. i've put about 800 miles on it since turboing and have had absolutely no problems.

lowering, rear 5lug, and starions will go on over spring break (march 3rd).

as far as paint, it will happen this summer. i am undecided on color but leaning towards dark blue, a different green, black, or gunmetal. any suggestions? i will be painting it myself in my driveway

looks good. starions will really help out. i think id lean towards black. black koukis are always hot. and when you say lowering do you mean coils? or just put like a smaller spring on thje agx's?

i really wouldnt put coilovers to use though, i dont really do any type of driving that coilovers would really be necessary to have. this is just my daily driver

agx shocks do the job just fine, if you've never ridden in a car with them i suggest you do; you will really be surprised how nice they feel for not being full coilovers.
