OK OK I'll start it....soon

Had to finish the passenger IC routing today...had a rain delay for a few but got it all up...now its time to wait for the rest of my HTS clamps....ordered too few the first time around

SO other than the alternator bracket and a few clamps to the tranny lines...and moving my ADJ FPR...(rain held that off) boost controller and some vac lines to route...she'll be ready.

Here is the routing from the GT42 to the inlet of the FMIC, a pic with the plastic splash guard, and a pic of it off. I was able to keep both splash guards down there which is awesome. The IC routing goes right behind the air dam and sits about 2 inches from the bottom of the air dam....about the same as my ATI kit so no worries there.



Heres the rest including some pics of my HTS clamps and silicone....coolness







Thanks JIM@HTS you and your products have helped me complete my project with excellent looking results and I know they'll handle the boost very nicely.

Everything looks real good from what I can see. Wish I could have helped out, but have been real busy at work and at home. Just so you know the PNYKILR is no more. Urist Racing is buying the car and slapping a big old turbo on it. big thumper 101mm. I guess they wanted a 7 second LT1 TA. You know how those Mustang Outlaw guy's are.

I'll try and make it up there tomorrow.

Looking real good Jer!!! You reallly took your time and did everything right on this install so it should payoff for you big time.. After all the parts you ordered did you ever think that a alternater bracket would of held you up.. I need the same thing and it seems like tring to find a piece of gold or something Well I can't wait to you fire this thing up and get rolling!!!!!

Your setup is looking great. Are you working on this all alone, and is this your first time installing a turbo setup?

Thanks Pat, yeah its kinda ironic that the bracket is the hold up, but it really wasn't needed until now I'm glad I was able to take my time on it. I think it came out a lot better had I tried to do it right away.

Thanks, yep I'm working on the car on my own after I get out of work on the weekdays. I have the weekend off, but I have to watch my 2 year old son cuz momma works on the weekends....so its kinda drug out. Every now and then I do get some help from my Dad, brother or my buddy Frank...they've all helped as much as they can. Its my first turbo set up, and my first time setting actually messing with anything turbocharged....its been real fun. But this is my 3rd FI set up. I owned 2 supercharger set ups before the turbo.
