    After timing chain...won't start

    Stereo/woofer box questions

    i think 1/8 in will flex to much to get good sound. you will only gain an inch h/w/l in extra space. you can build a sealed box out of 3/4in mdf for best sound. seald boxes don't need neer the space as a ported or bandpass. not as loud but i think it sounds way better. alot tighter sounding

    Death wobble blues

    DID YOU REPLACE THE WHEEL BEARINGS? IF YOU DIDN'T get the bearing race pressed down correctly into the hub it can cause a bad steering wheel wobble. i would start be jacking the front end up and watch the wheels for a wobble as you spin the tires.

    No Start

    turn the key to the run position and listen for the fuel pump turning on for a few seconds in the fuel tank. if it building up psi and turning off it is working properly. from there i would check to see if you got psi in the fuel rail. just loosen a fitting and see if fuel sprays out steadily...

    Turbo ideas

    i wouldn't go with the set up either. in my ten years of working on vehicles ive never seen the 22ret in a vehicle. besides, the work you would have to do to set it up you could drop an even more powerful fi engine in there that is easier to find.
