well the hole build was done by me in my driveway. it took about a week and a half, cause i could only work on the car very very early in the morning right after work. and it rained half the time. but other than that it was fun. i guess the hardest part was moching up the charge pipes and down pipe with duct tape :P not nowing if the angles would come out just right, but in the end it did thanks to Dave and Josh with the welding skillz.
i ran into several little problems everywhere, but thats expected when doing this. a few monster energy drinks takes care of everything :6

as of now i only started the car on the stock PR3 ECU to see if there where any leaks and what not.. but everything seems to be awesome. today i'm hoping to convert it over to obd1, witch should not take to long.
the car is open down pipe right now, cause i broke a hanger off the exhaust trying to get it on the car.. its very hard trying to do this yourself ;)

i would like to give a BIG thanks to Dave(CSaddict) for a bad-ass manifold, welding my charge pipes, and the k-teller exhaust and also Josh(hotrex) for welding up the v-band to the turbo and welding up my downpipe/dump tube.. with out these guys it would have never been done.

and also a big thanks to the all you guys, without HMT this would have never been possible :)

well i didnt take many pictures through out the build at all cause i didnt want to hastle with it, i just wanted to get it done right.. still need to paint alot of ---- black cause it looks gay. but hears a few pics.... and yes i am rice :8
