Default RE: hey everyone!

thanks for the welcome! i understand that it will cost me a pretty penny to mod my car but considering i just got done with modding mercedes, i think i might be able to handle this! i have sourced a 96 850 glt parts car with a good motor with about 145k on it for $600 so i'm going to ****** that up and begin with the turbo build. i'm thinking about building the bottom end, freshen up the top end with some na cams and maybe go with a turbo upgrade. i'm not really concerned about the tranny though. auto's fine for now since i'm going to be toting my 2 children in it. once i get some time though, i'll post some pics! thanks guys.

Are you planning an engine swap or planning to turbo your N/A?
