The box was ------- huge, literally 8 X 6 X 5. I personally woulda grabbed one from a junkyard, but hey its different

How exactly did you guys end up getting your oil feed down? I remember Josh cursing under your car trying to get you oem sensor out of the back of the block kicking people in the shins trying to inflict as much pain as possible hahah

Looks good, needs lowered and some different rims/tires, otherwise it looks great.

Re: my turboed EK with pics
 
I'll try to get pictures of downpipe, JK's piece of art. Really nice

Josh did an oil feedline with brake line tubings, it was the best thing we had.

when you have a monster tach and to a=pillar gauges your "sleeper looking IC" is out the window! not a bad set-up not a huge fan of the crossover looking resistor box electrical taped to the charge pipe. but it gets the job done.

I like the sleeper look. Why you did not ask me about a resistor box? It's late now but, I have two (2) in my basement gathering dust. Go wash the engine bay 8).

I saw that on front page, and thought it was a brick of bottle rockets. I thought it was a joke untill I clicked on the link and saw that it wasent a joke at all. That is true HMT style. Keep up the good work!!!!!

Re: my turboed EK with pics
 
Tight work man. I would like to see that DP also, looks like you used the OEM connection, I'm curious to see the weld job.

EK2000 05-17-2006 04:41 PM

Re: my turboed EK with pics
 
wow!!! i can't believe it's on the front page! thanks guys
tomorrow i should have pictures of downpipe
i don't remember who took the picture of the homemade muffler, that would be great to see it.

LOL!!! that's great
i'm really eager to install it, wondering how it sounds.

psycho_vince 05-17-2006 07:25 PM

Re: my turboed EK with pics
 
Is that a flux capacitor?!? ;D

Good job, thats an interesting muffler, I dont think its going to muffle anything though. Why did you make it, couldnt find something else to fit or what? Just curious.

EK2000 05-17-2006 07:35 PM

Re: my turboed EK with pics
 
i was unable to find a straight tru muffler in the 20$ range, so i build one and cost 20$ to make. There is a baffle in it, filled with fiberglass.

SiTurboD 05-17-2006 09:09 PM

Re: my turboed EK with pics
 
same setup as me .. throw 10lbs at it and ull love it. Im interested on how that muffler will sound too. If it wasnt as boxy lookin its similar to my magnaflow xl lol

WTF 05-19-2006 03:33 AM

Re: my turboed EK with pics
 
nice. large tach and gauge pods = not sleeper. that muffler is cool but i dont think its gona do ----, my cherry bomb turbo muff was $20
