Yeah, still have the Tbird, it's hilarious to me that instead of buying a few suspension parts, you managed to purchase an entire car (well we all hope its complete). Yep, i still have the 944 aluminum arms. Let me know when you want them.

The Tbird has been a great car, i drove it for about a year with no problems but the water pump went out in the exact same spot as the audi's motor blew up...the next day!

Holy crap, that's some turbo you got there !
Where is it from ?

Better hold on when that one kicks in.. .... should have quite a bit of lag I imagine....

That looks like the turbo off of a Cummins B, or C series diesel. A gas engine prolly won't have enough heat or CFM to spool it up.
