so i guess this will be my entry for what's going down

donor body 98 4dr lx which has been taking a beating in our winters and being used as a dd

engine is jdm sir 2nd gen with a built bottom end
9:1 srp pistons
eagle rods
aebs im
12lbs fly
act clutch
lsd tranny

Turbo stuff:
fab favorite custom elephant topmount
t70 masterpower t4 flanged .68
Tial 38mm wastegate
Tial Bov
straight 3" exhaust front to back, mostly stainless steel
2.5" ic piping
TT 660cc inj
flowmaster super 40
egay intercooler

got this on a chipped and fix for vtak p06 runnin crome

all put together in house with mucho help from Ravage so big props to that child molester
also big help from the following nogs:
Stealthmode and the Wifey for a great guy and quality ----
MinorThreat for the chipping
jagojon for the couplers
Xeno for the chips
Weir for misc flanges
Tunertoys
and why not, to imburn also for some nice t-shirts

btw this car used to be auto, so the engine went in while i had to work out the conversion, after that i slapped on the turbo
the deal so far is i haven't found anyone i can trust to tune this ----, so im still driving around with the reg inj and trying not to boost on the highway
The only major problems i have to live with were the warped vband flanges that sealed up nicely with exhaust leak fix putty and a decent amount of oil burnage not from the turbo but from the way i put together the bottom end.
its begging for a good tune

what i started with








3" exhaust line straight pipe all stainless steel with the sexy sounding flowwwwwwmaster



Strealthmode's oil line kit for t4


elephant top mount, big money saver




the good ----


do it yourself charge piping




i went a little baller with the vbands, oh well




tapped pan



DP


firewall oil line kit



gotts love stainless


chipped p0o6 vtak'd by Minor Threat



finally took some pics after the bov installed and painted the piping, still need to heat wrap the mani and tune it, but i never get a break off work

 

Nice elephant mount

you going to do the tune?

 

if i knew someone local that would let me use his ---- probably
but i dont, so most likely ill have to go to one of these frenchmen tuner shops

 

You owe me 3 cup of blood and 5 gallons pf sweat

 

Not bad car looks great!!!

 

Dude, finally.

Does it run yet? I'll come down and tune it.

 

havent seen you online much so i didnt know whats up, if you can that would be great man, ive been driving like this for a couple weeks now and it kills me to not be able to use the power im ready for

 

Gino Paladrino, a true Italian with the Stealthmode authority to ---- a frenchy up on the spot.

 

haha u got it steve

 

looks good but loses points for lack of snow in any pics, regains some points for the dp/exhaust.
