    Neighbors put it up for sale. Came with the supercharger, Trd headers, and trd exhaust. Getting the thing smogged was bitch since there was no carb sticker for the exhaust.

    I'm confused by the "time for a home wax job" part. Has it not be waxed before?... Was it always done commercially?...

    My OEM headlights looked like that until I took a $11.00 3M kit off of Amazon to them this weekend. Sent back the TYC aftermarket lights the light bleed was terrible. If you can salvage the OEM it’s the way to go.

    It’s easy, but you definitely want an AFR Gauge or a combo gauge with boost and AFR. That’s actually a bit harder to install because the welding the bun.

    Boost is 10.2 and AFR is 11.5
