It is NOT my car fellas. This is a customer's car. I have no control on what wing nor lip he wants to use/install. I only did the piping fab.... he he he. I cant comment on the motor build. He may not want people to know about it. The twin BOV was his thing. Again, I only fabricated.... ;D

this just in:

the fmic, dual bovs, and sc61 (i think?!) kind of remove this car off the sleeper list haha, your customer cant be trying to be that low profile

lol.... he said it straight up. He is not going for the sleeper look.... ha ha That is a T4/T70.... ---- is ------- huge. I thought my Garrett GT35r-S is big, until I saw this one.....

i'd dump that exhaust away from the intake, and prolly not stick a huge ------- pipe out of my bumper..... but that's just me

This is really wierd. Another guy on a different forum said that about the exhaust......... there is no exhaust pipe anywhere in the picture except the dump tube. That is definitely away from the intake. The pipe next to the compressor inlet is the upper charged pipe.

im a mechanic and i was still at work. i wear the gloves to keep from getting extremely messy.

and i was just comparing my hand to the turbo inlet

also the 2 bov's were because i had an extra

and its silent if i didnt have a side dump and a huge fmic i could pass for a sleeper? ;)

it looks out of place there, idea was alright, execution wasnt.

i just got back from cancun

the car is still here

my ricey mugen wing is staying

the bumper is getting a sheet metal piece for heat issues

the dumptube will be refitted accordingly

heat wrap is in the mail

ic piping is getting coated soon

turbo wrap is coming

this once again is the raw product just enough work done to get it home for my trip to cancun id rather not leave it at my shop

and though it may be a downgrade to some. i figured id try the manifold. i have expectations of it cracking but i gave it the benifit of the doubt cause i've yet to see anyone run this setup

and also im sure arnel will vouch for the drag stage 3 setup being on its last few miles every pipe was rusted, turbo seals are going bad. it was time for somethnig new.

so i decided to be diferent.

and there is still alot of work to be done. the finished product will look 100x better

and for power. its a slightly built itr with pistons,rods,headgasket,arp hardware.skunk 2 intake mannifold, 750cc injectors, hondata s300, and quite a few other things once its time to get tuned again it will see alot more boost. its only on 5 psi right now and its got some umpth.

the previous setup was on 10 but the bost controller was retarted and would run 15psi but i didnt have anything but an fmu and 370cc injectors and a vafc hack. so i didnt trust it.

front bumper doesnt fit as good as it did with the drag kit either.

im sure itll make some power, but thats alot fo eight to be hanging off of chinese 20ga steel

The car isn't my style but the charge piping looks good.
