Turbo Project finally done thanks HMT
Well after about 2 years of research, and some personal problems I finally have finished my HMT setup, and I need to thank every single one of you that helped out, and the big guys that created this site.
well here are few pictures of the car. I do have one problem, probably boost leaking, It boosted 5 psi, I have to double check all the pipes, but I'm just really happy right now.
this was the original project car
but then I got this for $200, so I went with it
and this SOHC Vtec ZC for $200
and went to work
radiator hose
The guys helping me out
My sister's boyfriend
and my other sister's husband
I will have more pictures of the finished car with the bumper on later, It's been lots of fun and I just can't wait to get this car running great, I test drove it last nigth and it was just ------- awesome, worth the time and money, and freezing my *** off, it was like 40 degrees this weekend in FL most of the night. But again Thanks HMT, any comments, questions, whatever let me know. I'm going to post the problems I have in the FI forum
thanks again

It's an IHI RHB5 with FMU, stock injectors and fuel pump, check valves.
Yes I know I know, not the best, but it works, I will be upgrading to 450's and AFC soon, but most of the stuff I got was either free, or cheap.

Re:Turbo Project finally done thanks HMT
yea the set up looks great man, just to try and help you out... first check all your piping because it could just be a loose coupler... most likely not... try changing ur vaccum source for your wastegate.. ive had much better results with the brake booster vac source.... hit me up if you have any other questions, i used to run a similar set up
