Nice work Jim, I look forward to going for a ride come May!

Hopefully!

Here's some fresh pics. Installed new plug wires thanks to Javad, and fixed the huge hole in my turbo heat shield. The old car still cleans up pretty well. Can't wait to get a B4 hood, fenders and RS2 bumper up front. (Hint if any of you CO fools have a hood and fenders laying around..)

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I always loved that you went this far without going to the standard B4/RS2 setup which seems to be the norm for a modified B3. Looks especially good in Ginster and Tornado Red (not a fan of Tornado Pink tho

)

Jim - fantastic looking engine bay! This is very impressive. I like the cleanliness and orderly appearance.

Yea, I hear you and agree somewhat. My bumpers and homemade grill are in pretty bad shape and need to be replaced and I've always hated trying to get stuff behind the B3 bumpers, although I don't have that problem with the 20v. Well see what actually happens.

Looking fantastic Jim. Sent the dyno plots and those pictures to my dad at work just now. I'll agree, the finish of everything there is top notch. The cutout in the shroud is nice and smooth, with no rough-looking edges, clean looking fabrication on the turbo side of things, just...nice!

Ohh yea, I love it as a DD. People see plots like that and it's very misleading. For example, below is my car vs Todd's quantum syncro with the 20v JT motor. My car on no boost at all makes more power that that motor at WOT. Then it's only a matter if a few psi to really get the car moving. If you want the full montey you obviously have to wait a second, but it's already moving along plenty fast before it even hits full boost.

all hail Freeman Thomas!

I wanna turn a B4 into a B3 someday, but otherwise I couldn't agree with a guy more, Jim... super clean job and you win the winter of 05/06 "Git er done" award.

Nice Job! I was in Denver this past weekend, and I had a feeling I should have checked on here before I left to see what you were up to. :frustrated: :frustrated: Oh well....

Me too! Then you get the flares, the nicer interior/fold-down rear seats, and the pimpalicious styling of the B3

Hmm, now you guys are giving me ideas

billzcat1 · Post by **billzcat1** » Wed Apr 05, 2006 6:43 pm

No, they're still around but last I heard they stopped selling the B4 hood.
