Installed the hot side, fabbed up a coldside, wired the BAP, swapped fuel pumps, wired boost gauge and AFR gauge. ( I had a little help). Still need to connect some vacuum lines, relocate the expansion tank and power steering reservoir. Should be firing it up tomorrow afternoon.




Who's turbo kit is this? Looks good!

That looks really good...There is no way that I could run that. I would tear that piping up in a week with all of the stupid huge speed bumps around here. My front bumper cover is already trashed and my radiator is bent on the bottom. I need airlift!

Im going to have to drive very carefully lol. The roads aren't too bad around here.

I pretty much finished it up today and went for a short drive to get a log for lito. It's extremely lean so i'll be waiting for a revision before i drive it again. Im going to get a smaller aluminum expansion tank and figure out better mounting for the ps reservoir. The intercooler ended up a lot lower then i anticipated but im going to leave it as is for now.

Thought about it but i think its going to be loud enough with no cats and straight flow through mufflers haha. Plus i could always still dump the wastegate to see what it sounds like.

Thanks. The engine bay will be a little cleaner when i replace the expansion tank and find a better spot for the ps reservoir. There are a few other odds and ends i want to do as well.

I'm about to order a pair of 18x10 black saleen replicas for the front of my car. I need new front tires and i'm tired of not being able to rotate my wheels. I'm pretty sure 18x10's fit all the way around with 275/40/18's on them without any problems correct?? don't want to get stuck ordering two rims and four tires and have them rub up front.

don't think the 18x10's will be that much different. If anything, i'll test fit my rear tire in the front tomorrow when I get a chance before placing my order. I could save 90 bucks by going with 285/40/18 Eagle F1's also. Don't want to spend a ton on tires since i'm spending 300 on the front rims.

The old cheap F1s aren't that good. That's why they're so cheap online lol
