Well I just made up my turbo to block brace to take some weight of the mani. THen I started on the downpipe but I started with my MIG on too high and burned a hole threw the pipe and had to fill it in so it looks kinda shitty. It'll get smoothed out though but still pissed me off.

It's not very pretty but it's better then nothing


It's not the most blingin' ---- or very big but hell anything is better then a damn int wg

And the super high tech piece of machinery I do all my work with. All work done with no gas!!! I'm cheap like that :P

I watch McGyver everyday so it comes in handy. I made this entire kit from paper clips and chewing gum. The power of a Swiss army knife is amazing!

Update... I picked up a y8 shortblock and matching tranny for 100 bucks from a local dude since my z6 has a slight knock but since I'm not sure what spring is in the WG I'll test it out on this old engine! lol
Downpipe is complete done and just bolts up to the cat like stock. Ground down the welds and I'm gonna pick up some header wrap soon. only thing left is to fab up the charge pipes and install my probe 310 injectors. Oh and finish my return line since my bling style AN setup won't work since the ssautoshit mani sets the turbo too low and the connectors place it down too low and won't make it to the oilpan inlet before it kinks.
new y8 setup to go in once the z6 kicks the bucket. 100 bucks ain't bad at all and I got to see it run before it was taken out for a h22 it was replaced by.





and the small one car garage I do this all in. I've got shitloads in this thing so it's pretty cramped but I've got everything I need. Engine lift, chopsaw, welder, a healthysupply of sohc engines and parts to keep my cars always running.

Yeah it'll go back in once I get the IC mounted in and then see what I have to chop out of the support to make it fit. Damn Viggen fmic is a pain in the *** but for 80 shipped it was worth it. Same size as the JRC 6" fmic exactly but endtanks have the inlets come out the back instead of the sides like the JRC.
