Winter upgrades to the sweater-vest Stang!

98 Camaro

This year is just minor upgrades.

I want to keep a lot of the comforts for cruising like comfy seats and power steering.

Here is a list of upgraded:

1.) new 84mm FI Billet Turbo (replace the old 88mm cast unit)

2.) change nitrous set up from dry nozzle to
Wet plate. This should help me leave a bit harder.

3.) remove heat from under dash

4.) rewire dash, mount FAST XFI, Trans Computer, coil, MSD 6AL, fan relay, etc

5.) change feed line -10 fuel. Needs a fresh new line.

6.) delete 3 gauge A-pillar pod.

7.) move boost and fp gauges to center heat vent.

8.) relocate OD, Trans Lock Up, NOS, Purge switches to heat vent panel from

9.) new CD player, and replace all 6 speakers with new

I'm sure I'll eventually need to address the limited slip auburn in the rear end....but it will have to wait until next winter

You were running 2 power adders? You need to find a electric power steering rack ;)


I was using the nitrous for launch only. I have no Trans brake, so I spray it for the first 50 feet or so until it reaches a desired boost.

Here is the beginning of the interior/dash cleanup

I have to address the holes in the firewall now. I think I may just do the scottrod panel for now.....maybe next winter I can pull the motor and address the entire engine compartment.

Its been too cold to work in the garage.....but parts are starting to collect.

I decided to skip replacing the Auburn diff with another unit, instead I decided to go with a spool. Should be here by next week.

The new turbo cover came in.....
