OnTopic:Was: addictted to roccos- now Christmas gifts for the addict



VDO EGT gauges =3D teh crap.  From what I hear, even slower than my crap
autometer.  Were I to do it again, I would get Percy's or Computech.

Changing from 3.94 to 3.67 final drive with boost is something I WOULD
recommend.  I'm doing WAY too much rowing right now...1st gear is
useless.

One word:

	INTERCOOLER!!

Oh yes, and an upgraded exhaust, assuming I can afford it.  Anybody know

a good source for mandrel-bent stainless sections?  Local speed shop
seems=20
to have their thumb up their but when it comes to this stuff.  A VDO EGT

kit would be very nice as well, but that may have to wait until next=20
year.

I suppose I really should do up the body work that needs attention
before=20
I get charged with neglect.  There may be a respray in there somewhere,=20
just to avoid the multi-colour look.  I wonder if you can buy pre-faded=20
Mars red (orange?)

I have also been toying with dropping the 3.94 final in favour of a
3.67,
but I likely will wait and see how much extra grunt the intercooler
adds. =20
Knowing me, I'll be finishing up a tranny swap 12 hours before Cincy
'03.
