So I started an apprenticeship/job at a high performance Ford specialist to learn some more on forced induction and work on some bad ass cars, if you have a mustang or any muscle car at that, these guys are great, learning how to dyno tune, rebuild rears, motor swaps, and all the bits between and picked a turbo'd eclipse for a good price anyway on to the pics

Electronic cutoff's on Boss 302

This guy was getting his trans rebuilt lol

Gold and whit verts are charged, the chameleon/purple ont is turbo, charged G8 and awesome lightning

Then Picked this up for cheap, yes its a 420a, it is camed, built internals, turbonetics turbo kit and waste gate, GReedy BOV & Hahn Port fuel injection blah blah blah, on to the pictures

don't worry about the Eclipse, it'll do..... plus the F&F Eclipse was really a 420A Talon.

What shop did you start working at?

mckpat03 · 07-27-2012, 08:46 AM

From the sign in the one picture, it looks like Swarr Automotive?

Quattro26 · 07-27-2012, 09:29 AM

Mishimoto · 07-27-2012, 10:09 AM

Congrats on both the car and job!

TR MS3 · 07-27-2012, 10:16 AM

When I lived in Schwenksville I used to pass this place every day. Seems like they always had a good assortment of toys there.

BlkWhtTSI · 07-27-2012, 10:29 AM

This is the place on rt 29 correct?

Congrats on the pick-up man. Don't mind any haters, you'll be able to pull on most of the cars you see on the road.

11secdsm · 07-27-2012, 11:08 AM

Pretty sure that turbo 2g n/t is originally from the Lehigh Valley area.

11secdsm · 07-27-2012, 11:12 AM

Yep, that's the one.....found one of his threads.

Yeah it's the one on 29, thanks it was really cheap and my brother needed a new dd so we picked it up, I was hoping one of you DSM gurus could help me out with it, pm me if you can. Thanks everyone, I'll try and keep up with pics but I get hassled for it lol

SHOdude · 07-27-2012, 11:21 AM

The gt40 is nasty, last time I was up there I think it made between 7-800 hp.

99corvette · 07-27-2012, 02:31 PM

I started reading this and thought it was going to be evolution performance, thank god its not. Swarr installed a new motor in my buddys 98 hellion turbo mustang, they did a real good job.

**Big_Jim** · 07-27-2012, 02:31 PM

I just cant get over how horrible that green 99-04 mustang looks with the vinyls, body kit, and lights.

edit: Just noticed it has m3 style mirrors on it too...... Lets hope it completes the look with yellow underglow and altezza tail lights.

Chudsoncoupe · 07-27-2012, 10:50 PM

You are lucky, must be so much fun working there.
