Talking New FI-X turbo arrived






Dropped it on the car to see how it fit...unfortunately, need to make a few adjustments since the turbo is a tad bigger than the GT47-88 we originally designed the piping for (move the turbo forward a tad) so I can clock it correctly)



Also mounted my AMS-1000 boost controller

where do you live so i can haul your car away and steal it all

j/k, i love your car and how it's turning out. not really a street car, but you've prob had plenty of street racing days and now it's time for 7 or 8's at the track

congrats and goodluck on the rest, i will be reading/viewing your future threads

You will love that AMS-1000. We used them on turbo hayabusas.
