Well, as you all know, the Tour is fixed. I want to go rather big with it, and have a nnice DD. Nothing out of control; but certainly an eye/ear catcher is what I'm shooting for. A certain emo suggested I just buy the HOC, but I can't afford that right now, and would rather build than buy. I'd also like to go in a different direction. My thinking is thatwhen the ATX goes, I find a parts car, and put in the tranny. I know many say to just buy an SVT, but that's just not an option. My engine has no Zetec tick or even bangshift to speak of, so the DT is in good running order as is.
My current plans are
-SVT kit
-Turbo
-MTX swap when the new power kills the tranny
-Eibachs
-SVT brakes if it's not that much more expensive than pads.lines
-Read discs
-No ICE except for HU (stocker is aging, and gets almost no reception)
DO NOT EVEN MENTION THE PURCHASE OF ANYTHING WITH 6 CYLINDERS OR A RUNNING CAR WITH MTX. I AM KEEPING THIS CAR. HECTOR AND DAN DID IT. IT'S POSSIBLE:laugh:
Also, if things are planned correctly, it will end up about the same price as a moderately modded 3L SVT; but it will go pssssh, and be lighter
BTW, I know the car will need an upgraded rotating assembly above ~8psi. Should I just go with pistons/rods? I know the crank is pretty strong
