BoostedGt480's Build Thread

[BoostedGT480]

Well come to find out, I didn't have all the hoses. My buddy found the other hoses I needed and forget to give them to me. As soon as he saw the pictures I sent him, he found what I was missing. Didn't have anymore time today (yet) to mess with the car. Maybe I will do some more tonight or tomorrow am.

Thanks...I've been in talks with a local guy who does awesome work with custom turbo kits and has been featured in magazines. Going to get a metal intake built and get rid of this crappy design that KB came out with

Ur going to get him to make a lower manifold for the KB? I'd like to see that! How much is that going to cost? U Should probably put in a bigger intercooler so the iat's drop some.

Ok. Well that's good. I saw somebody else made one of those. I'm not sure if it was on this forum or not.

 

[BoostedGT480]

yea, a few have. But I dont want there to be a bunch of couplers making it work. I want one single pipe like the mammoth kit. I want it to look nice and simple. Going to have it painted once its done. Of course, this will be when I get some extra money. Things are so tight right so and Im skimping by.

Everything is hooked up. The only thing that lacks for startup is hooking my AEM oil gauge back in with the sending unit. Had to send both in due to defect and havent arrived back yet. Should get them tomorrow or tuesday. Also, I have to put a 'T' in the vacuum line and then route a line to the regulator. Other than that, just cleaning up the wiring.

Good news: never saw a drop of fuel on first prime. Makes me feel good after all those lines I actually got them all on right. They are a bitch to work with.

Finished pictures of the fuel system

Hoping to start it up tonight. Just need to redo the vacuum lines, hook up the oil gauge, and install new startup tune.
