Default Some stuff I have been collecting...

Well here is most of the stuff I have been collecting for my turbo project. I just need a couple more things and I'll be ready. Well after I buy another car that is

Here is the turbo, it has quite a bit of shaft play but there is no oil in the compressor inlet or outlet so I don't think the seals are blown. I should be able to boost for a little bit anyways. Wastegate opening is cracked so bad I need an external wastegate.



Here are a couple pics of everything minus the mis. crap for the turbo like downpipe, etc...





Heres my new toy I bought today



I tried using a mig before and arced it right off the bat and got the wire stuck and didn't know what to do with it until my uncle got back. So basically this is my first weld with a mig, not too bad for not knowing what the hell I was doing. Dosn't seem to be much different than stick welding except you have more control with it.

all the picts work for me. your welding is far superior to mine, but I have no arc welding experience and my piece of crap mig pulses the wire feed instead of keeping it steady, what an ***. as soon as you get your car make sure you mount up the bov, that's the most important step.

and also make sure you blow a load right in the glove box, so everytime a girl gets in and check your glove box she'll get turned on by your special blend of herbes and spices
