Default Thanks to this forum! HMT setup done!

Hey guys, just finished my turbo setup a few weeks ago, been super busy, but heres a little pic page I made up:

http://www.mines.edu/students/p/pkruse/finalturbo/

most of the inspiration i got from this project was from here and turboD16. Jeff, I'm sure you hear this a lot but I owe you a lot of this, getting me inspired a year ago about how sweet this whole business is.

thanks everyone! i'm LOVING the boost and my car hauls at only 6 psi.

Let me know if you have any questions, hopefully most of the pics are self explanatory.

definitely ghetto looks good. just clean up that interior and get a better exhaust and you'll be in there.

its a 2.25 inch exhaust, no cat. It'll do me for now. It is aftermarket

yes, i gotta put my interior stuff back in. YOu may think its ghetto, but it seriously works like a well oiled machine. Well, IT IS a well oiled machine. I will be making a new full 3 inch DP soon, but for now I have no plans to change my charge pipes. They seriously seal like a ****, almost no pressure loss whatsoever.
