looks pretty good, but why in the hell would you want to mount your VAFC in a position that blocks your tach and speedo?

Also, backing this with personal experience, you might want to wrap that big rubber charge pipe with hose clamps, zip ties, duct tape... anything that will limit expansion. I had a piece of charge piping exactly like that from some stock turbo car i found at the junkyard and under boost it would balloon up pretty good.

Re:finshed pics (kinda dark)

Re:finshed pics (kinda dark)
 
only 5 pounds i think i got a leak some :-\where
it runs ok but i think when i figure out little kinks it will work even betterturbo dies out 2 soon >:(, but it was a big personal acomplishment for me, oh and the blow off vale is high pitched not as loud as the dsm though
squeaks like a mouse :)

I'd probably paint the intercooler black since it looks a little funny up there, but other than that the setup looks great. And I think your wheels are growing on me ;)

Re:finshed pics (kinda dark)
 
i am going to change intercooler and turbo next year, not sure what turbo to run though, thinking about k26, and just making the o2 sensor hole bigger in the std manifold, and weld a pipe for external wastegate :) what do u guys suggest

Re:finshed pics (kinda dark)
 
Grab you a JRC intercooler, you can't get much better for the money, and with the way you have your turbo mounted, it will bo really easy to change the piping to fit too. (P.S. like the 50,000 spoke rollers)

How did you crush the probe BOV if they are plastic ???

Re:finshed pics (kinda dark)
 
i'd take out all the interior pieces and paint them black with paint made for interiors. the car looks real good and the install came out good too. good work there billy!

Re:finshed pics (kinda dark)
 
I did not crush the probe bov, i had a 1 gen bov that was crushed, that bitch gave me compressor surge. The rims are eagle 135, heavy as hell :-\

. I'm curious as to how what method you used to connected the turbo downpipe to the cat. I have the same setup (not installed yet)and the downpipe coming from the turbo is only 1.75".

Re:finshed pics (kinda dark)
