Well the kind ups man dropped of some additional power today. Just part of the begi s1 kit. Still waiting on the intercooler to come along.

Body work is coming along. Spacers still need to go on. Started finishing off the lips of the flares so they are nice and clean and not sharp raw fiberglass.
Too hot to do anything else. So I spent a while tearing out the dash so I could upholster it inside in the ac.

The widebody doesn't seem like my cup of tea, but I applaud all the work you've done to it. I'm sure it will look great when finished.
Not diggin the style, and how have you tested to ensure the slit in the middle will be effective? Just curious.
I will be following this thread extremely closely. Lots of good info in here and it's extremely interesting. Excellent work man.
Post as much technical info as you can, I want moaaarrr

Not so sure about the swoop on the door. I think it would be cleaner looking without it.
Yeah. The design is a love/hate kind of thing. But unfortunately, if ya don't like it, well that's just tough titties. Lol. If you don't like it, design one yourself. Hell I'll even build it for you!!
Regarding the hole and hood scoop and temp business. I took a couple air temp gauges to it before and after. Noticed a pretty decent drop in air temps under the hood. And surprisingly lowered air temps around the intake source. When the air travels through the nose hole it travels up over the engine and out the hoodscoop, pumping cool air in and hot air out. Initially it was mostly for aesthetics but when I figured out that it somewhat functions, bonus I guess. Ill probably run more tests once the turbo goes in. The hood design isn't necessarily final yet.
And honestly the side looks pretty goofy without the door swoop. Once its all blended in, smoothed, and painted it will look better I feel.

Begi stage 2.5 intercooler showed up at the doorstep. One step closer to boost in the car.

This thread hasn't seen any action in a while. Its basically just been a slow process of getting body work sorted out. Ill have more recent pics soon. Until then here are some little shots I have.

100 pictures on the first page. This is great! I'm not a huge fan of the front bumper, but I think it flows well with the rest of your plans. Can't wait to see more progress!
