Default almost there!!

look what i ordered today (don't flame the a/f gauge, it's better than nothing :P)

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ME:B:EOAB:MT:6

now all i really need is misc. stuff like oil pan filter, some couplers, clamps, etc.

the set up consists of:

stock b16

cca fmic

stealth mani for t3 flanged for external waste gate (will be blocked off running internal for now)

stealth oil lines

.48/.50 t3/t4

o.k., here comes the cheap stuff (just using this stuff to get by for now, will be upgraded as time and money permit)

bosch bov

jackson racing fmu (this is the first thing that will be upgraded, i'll be converting to obd1 and running uberdata)

crush bent piping (will look butter with some nice flat black paint and nice welds )

well, it shouldn't be too long, but my main priority right now is getting moved in the house i just bought, so after that, i'll be all over it

na, i know who you're talking about and i've heard good things about him, i actually bought this turbo off a buddy of mine, i tried to sell it for him here https://www.homemadeturbo.com/forum/...threadid=15925 but ended up just buying it my self, it just has a sheared bolt that i need to tap out and the usual cracks in the exhaust housing, i'm not sure what size wheel it has, all in know is the compressor and exhaust size, but either one of those that your buddy is looking at will be great on a b16.

my gauges came in today!! they are sweet as hell! too bad my bezel isn't going to be here until next week :P i could do my install this weekend, but i don't have any bends, i was just going to use crush bent, and then order some mandrels when i got some extra cash, but pipe would be a pita to run twice, so i'm just gonna order some bends and do the install next weekend. i am however going to mount my cca, fmu, and run the wires/hoses for my gauges so when my bezel gets here, i can just pop them in. i'll have pics of everthing, i hope i can make the official "turbo projects" page
