Hey Bob,
I have one currently, built for me by Dan Macdonald and John Wirt, but I am always contemplating various upgrades that could be done to the car. Dan and John set me up with:
'78 turbo shell
16V block 10:1 pistons with turbo (around 8lbs boost I think)
LH2.2 injection
APC
intercooler
900 front hubs
900 rear axle with swaybar
original 99 ignition system
original 4spd turbo trans
plus a lot of renewing of various bits and pieces
To date (I've had it not quite 2 years), the things I have added are a Saab 90 center console and a decent stereo, and I put in the ignition system from a 16V turbo.
My current work-in-progress is assembling an aftermarket (MegaSquirt) fuel injection/ignition control system. I have also been contemplating changing the intercooler setup to front mount, changing springs, changing headlights to H4's, custom fabricated grille, etc. but the only thing I've actually gotten started on is the injection system.
