I am using a Borla NA header and will be boosting my NA daily driver soon. Don't worry, I have a built 2.5 going in eventually.

Anyway, here are some mock up photos.









Some issues that have arisen are A- I built it while using a NON-ABS vehicle for measurement. But the wagon its going into is ABS, so I need to move it a few inches. And B- there might be some axle issues. But probably not.

So I would finish it tonight, but the damn cold saw blade has gotten so small, I can't cut anything! ol:

 

love it

 

Oh yeah, the motor/heads/intake were all in the recycle pile until I was smart enough to assemble it into a mockup motor!

 

I did an up pipe in my neighbors 2.5 RS and it was super close to the firewall. Your's may be different but that would never fit in his.

 

I'd suggest using a flexpipe somewhere before the turbo. Other than that (and the welds), it looks pretty cool. Not bad considering they were junk parts.

 

just have SOLID bracing to the engine or transmission block. you need that flex pipe or not

 

Project on hold. Its a PITA to do it without the engine in the wagon. And then its a PITA because I don't have lift.

Yet......


Getting one soon! $500!!!!!

This style. Picture not actual lift....

 

$500 for a lift, how you fine that?

 

Damnit my ------- server was hacked! Thereore no pics right now.


Anyway, I got it due to "connections". As in, I just got ------- lucky.
