My next set of mods came quickly without a lot of pictures being taken inbetween but here's what I have from this stage:

I got a new set of BC racing coilovers to replace the old worn out stock struts. Thanks to Chelsea Denofa who helped develop these for getting me a great deal on a brand new set. Once I got them set up right the BC's really made the car come alive. Finally I was able to use all the power I had availible.

Next I installed a new front air dam courtesy of Home Depot's garden section. Despite how ghetto this seems I really like it. It looks great (imho) and it is nearly indestructable. I've run it over many cones, scraped it in and out of driveways, and tagged tires with it and it doesn't even show a mark.

Finally I pulled the old and questionably accurate boost gauge in favor of a nice greddy that I had on hand from another old project. The new gauge looks great, matches the stock gauges extremely well, and did actually reveal that my boost setting were a bit different than were being shown with the old unit.
