and dont worry about the guys that want to flame you for the Master Power turbo, they have a vandetta against SSAutoChrome but they cant seem to understand that SSAutoChrome is a reseller and that Master Power has nothing to do with SSAutoChrome other than the fact that Master Power allows SSAutoChrome to resell their brand of turbo's.

Don't recommend those bullshit turbos to anybody on this website.

btw, i follow your sites silly rules about SSAutoChrome and i didnt recomend them, this guy had already purchased it. the sad thing about all of this is that no matter how hard your site try's, its not going to make him go out of business and its not going to make him go away. and evidently not everything this guy sells is total crap because there have been a recent surge of people having really good results with his stuff and even with proof you guys hate. the HMT way!

I know even with all the proof in the world you would still stand by the -------, but that just goes to show you that birds of a feather flock together. I just hope my ignorance and stubborness doesn't block my abilty to make rational decisions as much as yours does.

Re: My Turbo 5.0 project!

Re: My Turbo 5.0 project!
Well, the car has been finished for one week. These are some pics I just took. Yes, the motor is 100% stock.
These are the gauges in place. EGR is not hooked up, as I will be buying a downpipe from Brent that he will be making to fit my car.

Re: My Turbo 5.0 project!
Looks good. :thumbsup:
I would take that rag off the turbo though. You might not think it would affect anything, but that will restrict airflow pretty bad. I would just use a screen. I bet you notice a big difference if you change it.
We need more pics.
