    Word! My sister jumped timing at above car(the Jetta) and I have to finished rebuilding the head before I can continue on this. I'm really just building up parts like a whore and doing all the work quick before the snow melts. Lol. I also have a 1976 jeep cj7 that I'm restoring with my dad right now. It's going to be my winter car lol.

        CJ7's rock. My cousin's have one they rock crawl with, with an LS1 in it. Thing fucking ROCKS. Wish I had photo's of it. Do it up. post pictures of that vag-mobile too.

        Also, I didn't notice that much rust issues when I came over. Some spots are bad! Still looking good though!

            Also, this is a WTB thread. I will be willing to negotiate for many items concerning this build. If you have anything that you think is useful, just chime in. All comments are appreciated. Unless you are being a douche that tells me to s5x swap it and stop Wasting my time with boost or something.

              Haha. For 500$, it has barely any rust issues at all. I'm very happy with it. My management setup costed more than the damn car. And it has very minimal rust. I'm happy.

                Yea dude. The pistons are like black at the top. Only 130k on it. Probably shit gas ran through it. Super gross dirty.

                  True with in reason. Still a decent vehicle. Glad you got sedan over coupe. :)

                  yeah, they look like they're covered in gunk. Hopefully you get that thing back on the road!

                        That is Ms3 correct?

                            I am familiar with microsquirt, I may be using it for a 4HP briggs!

                            How do you wire the relays? Did you just cut off the ecu connector and then wire the harness to that?

                            Sent from the future. Or my phone, who knows.

                              well because i bought the DIYPNP, it comes with everything necessary, and a box to put it in, so its a direct replacement of my regular ecu. I just soldered up the jumpers, and plugged that bad boy right in. No wire harness cutting necessary.

                                ^More pictures of this DIYPNP I remember me an you discussing it briefly. But I'm still curious on how this works. Who knows. Maybe you'll pull me from MSII into a microsquirt. Squirt. Lul.

                                    well is your ecu a 55pin? If so, then it would work, if not, then they dont have a DIYPNP for you. just use the megasquirt and build it into your ecu if need be. just rip the connector out of your ecu box.

                                      That turbo is way too big for your HP goals IMO. The HX35 has much better street manners and will make over 500 wheel all day long. Cool project, and good luck with the build. Is O-ringing the motor really needed for 350 wheel?

                                        That's what I told him. But he's hard headed. He's running the HX40. Lol

                                          How big is the motor in that car? It's going to be lag city.
