i didnt want to work with the hack saw. i was feelin mighty lazy, id rather spend more time and just sit there, then go at it with a hack saw. plus a hack saw would only cut it straight i needed it to hace a slight curve on it.

and yeah, that pic does kinda through you off, its not really somethin you see everyday when lookin into an engine bay so you have to think of what your lookin at, then you kinda realize what your lookin at.

Looking good so far, I remember the days of the dremel till I bought a chop saw. One of the best investments I've ever made.

Someone from so cal trade me a turbo for my 52/48, so i can get this car workin already. i extened all the sensors today to reach on the z6 mani, but oil was all over the outside of the center section of my turbo after i finally got my car to start.

but that could also be because right after i would start my car the rpms would climb untill i turn it off. it kinda struggles to start, then just climbs then i turn it off.

tomorrow i will check all the sensors and make sure i did them right

if i cant figure it out, i dunno what else to try to fix that damn idle
