**** not having the ac, flip the turbo around and make the downpipe work!

Interior is nice, not to over the top, but bolt in cages piss me off, with their uselessness.

I like everything except the bolt in cage. I say weld it all in instead of bolting it. unless your just having it in there for the looks of it. me personally I just wouldn't trust the bolts to not break in a crash. my welds on the other hand I trust.
Yea, I mean I could always weld in the cage if I wanted, but with so much interior work, I dont want something permanent in there. If my headliner starts to sag, or I want to do some custom upholstery on my seats, I want to be able to remove it. Not to mention, I've never driven with a cage, so for all I know, this may be an item up for sale on here soon lol.

But no, my reason for getting it was this thing is gonna be ****ing fast, and I'm spending all this money on my car, I might as well spend a grand to potentially save my life god forbid some stupid **** happens. Oh, and it looks ****ing bad *** lol, you cant find street cars around here with cages in them lol.
