Finally boosted!
Well I've finally boosted! The only thing that sucks about my setup is the open DP so I don't even know what my BOV sounds like it's so loud :P And the CX tranny I have on my Y7 in the EH3. I got it for 20 bucks when my y8 tranny took a ---- about a month ago. 1st and 2nd are not so bad but after that it just blows boosted being so long and the stock clutch slips(duh 
). Now maybe I need to change my name to "Stillturbo'd".
Specs
-IHI RHB5 VF(Sube' Loyale) w/90k and no shaftplay(with T3 welded being that these turbos had some goofy triangular flange and when I get something bigger I can keep my manifold
)
-Custom Y7 exhaust manifold with T3 flange welded on and painted with high temp alum. colored paint and then wrapped with header wrap
-DSM 2G SMIC with modded end tanks mount in wheelwell
-2" charge piping from turbo to IC than 2.5 from IC to TB
-Monza BOV(got from Boostedstinky nuts)
-Greddy Bluebox
-Blitz dual turbo timer with built in boost guage(reads in bars though
)
-homemade downpipe from 2 2.5" 90 degree elbows
Total for everything was 390! Thats that's budget and still nice looking

Re:Finally boosted!
congrats and welcome to the world of boost! you're gonna love how people walking down the side walk break neck (turn around real fast) when they hear your turbo spooling and BOV going off while you speed up toward them.lol i stil crack up sometimes when i see that. oh and if you have a front mount intercooler under your bumper, alot of ricers, car people will slow down just so they can get a closer look. bad part is that before you know it you'll get use to the extra power and you'll want more power! good job though on your set up.

Re:Finally boosted!
becareful with that home depot elbow off ur turbo... its gonna melt in like 2 days. try to make an elbow outta metal then jus use a silacone? connector... if u wanna be ghetto go to the junk yard and gank some off turbo volvo's... the blu connectors are silacone. that elbo's gonna melt.
