im redoing my intake tube as i was using a 45* elbow and a buddy (**** you kyle) pointed out that it would suck closed under higher boost so im redoing it with an aluminum elbow. my cage is also almost complete. all thats left is to fit the knee bar and door bars in and weld it all up. after that its the rear end and wiring and this bitch will fire up!!! trying to get her done before august 1st for hot august nights.
Very nice build. Will you be spraying water on that inner cooler? Using water/meth injection? What are you doing for a diff/rear axle?

Sweet! I finally drove my junk. It was blowing oil past the seals... Knightrider smoke screen style. I ended up replacing the Turbonetics with a Comp oil less. There are still a few adjustments to do to fit the new intercooler but it's close! Then the tuning starts

some pics of the cage progress. all that i need to do is fit the door bars and weld everything up and the cage is done. ive never done anything like this before and it was a ******* MONUMENTAL pain in the *** to square everything up and make it look halfway pretty but im really happy with the final product. i learned a **** ton about cutting angles and how to measure them. once the cage is done, the rear end is all going together and then its just running power and grounds and she'll fire.

Easy there Macho Man Just stating the harness looks like a piece of **** compared to the rest of the car. If you're going to do something, do it right or don't even bother. Don't like it? Don't post your car on an open forum expecting everyone to suck your dick over the 3459023rd turbo lsx fox body, especially with electrical tape harness

I was following the build until I saw that hacked up harness. Should have spent the money on some comeback lessons. I guess that's the bst you have since you know I was right but then again you probably think this POS, as you call it, is badass

Are you seriously still here? I gave you your daily dose of semen when I starched you last time. You must really enjoy the taste of my man chowder. Are you wanting me to finger your vagina this time around? I know your all hot and bothered for me since they overturned prop 8, but dude, I dont roll that way. Go find your hot meals somewhere else.
