Today the following got all finished up and awesome-fied.

Rear end welded up, spatter cleaned off the inside the housing, and new gear oil put in (duh)

New front discs, pads, pistons and sliders in calipers taken out- burred and regreased.

one of the retarded 1.5" ID restrictive "mufflers" taken out and replaced with -PIPE-

ABS works again now, seems that if you have two ounces of misc metal shavings on the magnetic pickup on the wheel, it won't quite work ;)

boost upped to ~13-14 ish.

Car is amazing to drive now, so predictable around corners, no horrendous noises from anywhere, stops on a dime - I LOVE IT!

...

Clutch didn't slip at all today, maybe it just needed some tough love?

If you are all well behaved, i'll do a little video tomorrow :)

uhm, really?

These are really good lights, would I like the Ecodes? Would I be able to get clear corners for them?

previous owner(s) have put some swaybar happy, some sort of unknown brand of lowering springs, and there are newish shocks on all corners, nothing is labeled anymore, just covered in volvo goodness - but she does handle surprisingly well, I plan on adding more swaybar goodness though, I need a very predictable rear end.
