Gonna finish the gates up this saturday after i buy a new blade -_-. Also ordering the cold side on friday and work on it next week. It should be a pretty simple install. Then I'll start coating/wrapping the hotside, and ahve the cold side powerder coated. Ive thought about wrinkle coating the charge piping to match the valve covers. What do you guys think?

I think it would look good! I like the wrinkle paint when done right.

Should look clean with that coating IMO. As long as its done right should look neat.

hey thanks man. the more i think about it, the wrinkle will look good. the pulley is called a "wazees pulley" Google it and you'll find it. they're like $120 or so

little update. got the wastegates mounted and i got them all TIG'd up. the pics are from before i had them welded.. Only had on one dump pipe on but you get the idea. This was THE only place i could both of the gates to fit without having to either - A. redo the drivers side up-pipe, or B. mount the wastegate really stupid under the car. I gotta handit to some fabricators out there. its really hard to make **** fit. But i think itll work out ok.




My intercooler, piping, clamps and couplers will be here this week. Thanks to Jon @ Huron speed for hooking me up with the intercooler. (Wish you could tag people on the forum) My plans for right now are to get the intercooler mount, get o2 bungs welded into the hotside and get it coated and heat wrapped, then get the IC setup mounted and wrinkle painted. Then ill move onto finishing up some small things like hanging the fuse box harness and relocationg the battery, making a bracket for the radiator. Imma have to take a break from the car for a couple months because i want to pay some stuff off so i have more money to spend on her. Not to worry, she'll be done soon enough! Im not in any big hurry.

thanks. ill be running the griffin radiator everyone uses. with a 160* Tstat with some kind of cooling additive. 2 10" cheapo zirgo pusher fans. The car has no AC. i think it will be fine. i don't drive it when its 90* out anyway. ill also be makin my own custom radiator lines out of 1 3/4" aluminum tubing and silocone couplers.

Those gates are should make some noise. I know that's all I here once mine opens up.( behind pass side fog light pointed at ground) I kinda like it but at the same time I'd like to see how the car sounds with them recirculated.

No dyno numbers but I took it to the track a couple of times. On 10lbs I ran a 10.23 @ 134 mph. I bumped up the boost, but busted my trans on an 1/8th mile track due to spinning. It's back together and I should be going back to VMP 1/4 track next Friday.
