My Homemade Turbo Project...

Re: My Homemade Turbo Project...
anyway, here are some updated photos of my build...
resistor box installed: (used voltmeter to locate injector power wires, and depinned them from harness. Pinnned them into resistor harness, and powered red resistor wire from remaining power wires on engine harness
http://eastcoastchopstix.com/forum/v...light=resistor )
trimmed, and repainted grill flat black to match intercooler:
ghetto intake piping: $7 lowes special dryer hose
intercooler hose runs thru stock airbox: bov will be hidden in airbox, and stock intake hose will be slit underneath, to wrap over, and hide intercooler hose.
installed oil pressure gauge in center console:

thanks man, Im trying to make it as sleeper as possible. You cant even see the front mount. Im hoping the bov wont give it away. I might have to reroute it back into the system. The only problem now is trying to hide the air intake on the turbo.

I've never seen that kind of hose used before, but I don't see anything wrong with it. Maybe you'll start a new trend.
Selling that other T25 may have not been such a bad idea, it will probably be a lot easier to find an adapter flange for the VX manifold to this turbo than it would have been the other one.
Good luck, and run more than 5psi for christ's sake.
