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

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:

 

that looks pretty sweet dude, u put alot of thought into making it as sleeper as possible!!!

it looks like some good quality work!
keep it up!

 

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.

 

hahaha hows that hose workin for ya I love all the little ghetto things you're doing lol

 

I'm actually quite impressed, I remember thinking back when you first started this thread that your project was never going to get off the ground. Props.

 

not pushing any boost yet, so its hard to tell. Im sure it will work fine tho. Its rated for 140psi, and thick as ----. You can't pinch it, and its got a steel core.

 

Awesome build man, keep us updated

 

Sweet build. I like the stealth. Turbo and intake are going to be tough. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

 

Good ---- , It's looking good , giving me some ideas, hmmmmmm. Keep us posted and give us some numbers.

 

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.
