    Cold Alaskan Escort

    It's not a Protege but it's photos and got a turbo.

    It's -12 F, car is covered in snow, and im outside in my shoes cleaning off my frozen car. Crazy? YES! This is the current state of my turbo project, lack of funds and this cold weather puts a damper on things. She runs and drives but loudly. In need of an exhaust system that im in the process of custom making. Recently aquired 460 CC RX-7 injectors for more top end fuel and will be slowly finishing off the engine compartment. I can't wait for this summer. :D

              Just a side note, this car is not registered, insured nor drivin yet. Been a project in the making so the different body colors are a build in process. ;p

                        Actually, Jordy is sponsored by Benetton, Alaskan Div.

                        Good work man!

                        BTW, a heat gun will get those tires unstuck

                          damn, talk about snow...

                          nice car. I can understand your idea of trying to get the motor tuned and running right before you worry about the body work...
                          I respect that and fully understand...
                          are you using the vj20?, what engine are you running?.
