yup all good how about you? hope to see you around at some meets! It's nice having a SS thats for sure compared to the non turbo wagon. Can't wait till the snow starts to fall. Well hopefully it will fall RIGHT after my transmission is swapped :A (no awd 2nd gear-3rd gear slips auto blowssss)

sneek peak lol, its a ruff one but she is all there. the great canadian north winter and the lovely salt has eatten the body work, but at heart its still there.
inside is so clean its brand new! out side world war 3 hahah.
this is just one of 3 legacy's turbo's that will make one. plus the parts from my impreza will unit in to one mint legacy turbo. i forgot even svx parts will be in this as well.
lots of motor choices, lots of everything really in the build journal to come. but in the end, only one turbo legacy will survive.

I'd rather have an EG33 than a turbo EJ20/22. I saw a build that a guy did on a legacy with an EG33 once but I think he toasted the engine right away somehow and then abandoned the project.

Then you could buy this supercharger kit for the EG33 from this guy.

I'm not bad. I have a job and I'm doing an independent author exhibition in NYC next weekend. Here's hoping the book gets picked up by a bigger publisher and that they want the second one, too. I hope next summer to start building my own car from scratch.
My third book has a '93 wagon with a turbo EG33 and a fan to suck the car to the road like the Chaparral 2J. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

Absolutely. Midnight in a Perfect World, by Steve Kappotis. You can order it anywhere from any book store or website or me. Hope you like sex, violence, and depravity.

I'd like to get a copy of it. Is that your only book? I'm reading the lord of the rings books every night before I go to sleep right now and just finished the hobbit. But when I'm done with those I would like to read your book.
I'd probably rather buy it from you but either way is fine.

It's the only one out now. #2 is at the publisher and I'm banging along on #3, have about 150 pages of #4 and that's the end of the series, barring a possible spin-off. I need to go to Montreal to scout locations before I can really get #4 together.
Just send me a PM if you want to order them from me. Autographed, of course—not that it makes it worth more.
