Default SEMNOS GOT HIS TURBO INSTALLED!!!!!PICS and MORE PICS!!!!

Boost is sooo sweet
Today I gave it it's first run and ohhhh my does it pull ...It's currently set at 6 psi...Down pipe still needs to be welded to the exhaust(a lot of noise).
The toughes part is over now....only need to turn the turbo a tad more so the oil return shoots downwards.
This thing is ghetto..as of right now tie rap is helping me out and sum charge pipes are held together with DuckTape...Ducktape sticks well to PVC ...I'll take pic's and post them tonight.
My turbo sits upside down and I'm using the stock exhaust manifold

PVC, ducktape, and zip ties? This has to be seen. We have a regular McGuiver(sp) here.

That's great Yan!

Now you don't have to say "it's going to be boosted, soon" anymore, haha.

Can't wait to see the setup, get those pics posted!

And if you need a longer test drive.... you know where i live

Maybe i will come by, this weekend, to check out the work, but it's a big maybe, i'm kind of busy.
