Well I haven't officially started any work on my EGT yet, as I'm waiting for the first warm weekend in Spring. I'm hoping all work will be complete and she's ready to go by the time the roads are salt free. For now I guess I'll just post up some pics of the old girl and the turbo parts.

I'm from just south of Albany, NY.
Yup, I bought the car from Oktavian (Tazman2) a few months ago. I had been looking for a salt free EGT for quite some time. As soon as I saw her I knew she was the one. Believe it or not, the engine and body have around 171kmi, but I won't be boosting this engine. Instead, I will be pulling the BP from my 92EGT and boosting that. The engine and tranny are in great shape with less than 100kmi and I know their entire history, as it was my dads car who babys all of his vehicles.
I'm so anxious to start this project. The only time I've driven the car was the test drive back on Nov 1st. I wanted to put it on the road so bad, but there was no way that I could let such a beautiful car get destroyed by salt. Egt's are rare enough by themselves, let alone finding an imacculate salt free one like mine in the salt prone northeast. I can assure everyone that the car is in good hands. Although I'm 21 years old, I do not beat vehicles like most others that are my age. I'm very meticulous and pretty much have OCD when it comes to maintaining my toys (cars, streetbike, dirtbike, atv).
I believe that Oktavian bought the Gude header and custom SS tie bar from Identity_X. http://www.wihandyman.com/forum/showthread.php?t=19300
