Default lil taste of my 'solo' install *56k this may be worse than one of kains posts*

well, i did my install about two weeks ago (frank helped out for little while, then i was by myself) and just haven't found time to post the pics. as many of you may know, i blew the bitch up the same night (well, low compression in #2 and #3, but she still runs). i've started ordering parts for my b18 block and i'm dropping it off at the machine shop this week, so, it should be ready in about a month or two, in the mean time, i'm gonna rip the b16 apart tomorrow and throw in a couple stock pistons, new rings and a 'meatball' hone job as jeff would call it should be good as new and do nicely until the ls block is done. but, here's the pics of the install

well, incase you still haven't cought on, i tapped the back of the pan (notice a couple 12pks. in the background), i didn't even notice until i went to bolt it up with no welder or real materials on hand, i had to get all HMT on dat *** :P using a spare tuner toys return flange for my pan, what i had 'planned' to be one of the nicest return line set ups, quickly headed south after about 15 beers and no one else around to keep my *** in check

jrc 8" needless to say, i was in for a rude awakening as to how low it sat when i took the car off the jackstands, so, it's mounted a little differently now, but i don't think i have pics of it.

that pan looked raped but beside that it looked pretty good
Everyones kit around here has been looking less and less low budget homemadeturbo
and more just clean custon pieced turbo.
And of course the soundtrack to the movie was tight :P

I knew it was backwards from the 1st pic... If it's works, ---- it.

Looks good otherwise!

After the first 5 pics or so, the rest are red x. Looks good from what I did see though.
