        Depends on shipping cost I guess. The passenger seat is almost perfect, but I'm sure shipping on one seat still isn't cheap.

          I changed the external wastegate spring from a 1.0 bar to 0.5 bar. My car wasn't reving beyond 5000 rpm after i upgraded to the t3/t4 turbocharger with a 48 back housing & 60 front. Since the swap from the 1.0 bar to 0.5 bar I am not only hearing the external wastegate opening, I am also now able to rev beyound 5000 rpm that I was able to do when the 1.0 bar external wastegate spring installed.

              I LOVE it! I also really appreciate the fact that your cupholder says "cupholder". I mean... imagine if you couldn't figure it out in a time of need. Then, what woud you do? (chuckle)

              P.S. Do you reckon that you could fit a row of switches on the face plate and still clear the contents within (in opened/closed positions)?

                I wouldn't do that. the cup sits on that and if you get a spill it collects in there. also, it would look pretty bad when it was folded down. lol

                  True. Marine switches could make the water issue moot. I also don't really care about the "look" when the thing's open. However, if the cups would literally sit on top... then, that just won't cut the mustard. Well, I guess I'll have to rig it up and see.

                    switches would probably fit but a cup in the holder would sit right on top of them. only one way to find out if it works and that's trying it out.

                      Drove my GT today! 3.5 yrs in progress, and I finally hit boost today. It was sweet.

                            Any lower and you mess up the roll center.

                              had a tiny coolant line decide after 22 years of faithful service it was going to retire. it was the tiny one coming out by the thermostat so it lasted a while i guess.

                                Ah yes, the molded one. I would replace it with a straight hose and it would kink.

                                The other "gotcha" hose is the coolant supply from the coolant bypass pipe to the turbo. That one has two bends in it, IIRC.

                                I ended up getting spares from MSM.
