Might be a stupid question... But is this your daily driver? Or do you have another car to drive around while working on the Alero?

It's my daily driver. I've been getting a ride to work and to the shop.
Manifold is done (including wastegate implementation), custom oil drain line is done.. all that's left is to put in the O2 bungs and install them, and shorten the charge pipe since the turbo is now more on the passenger side.
Will be done tomorrow morning for sure.. More pictures when I get back home (posting from shop). |

You guys should totally not laugh. Like, that G chip, like, totally adds about 200 HP* to any Honduh on the road (*requires use of stickers) It does suck that is only adds 50HP, to American cars

That is what I was thinking. I'll give him a trans mount soon to make one, and sway bar bushings are a good idea.
