Frank!WHAT IS IT!








Frank(sscam68) Took my ill fitting, but excellently thought out alternator bracket and made me a new one out of stainless steel with the correct positioning to get the belt off of the thermostat housing. I got to say phamspeed came up with a great design for an alternator bracket that is simple and places the alternator in a great location, but mine was a lil off, no biggie as Frank had the ability to whip one up ASAP. I'm glad I didn't have to move my ADJ FPR, that saved me 50 bucks alone in fittings and lines so all is good.

Frank will be making me some additional bracing for the alternator bracket so it will be rock solid, which it is now but more is better when it comes to brackets.

Plug wire boots, IAT sensor install then its time to see what happens.

Thanks Charlie,
As for the elbow, thats from ATP turbo, no sponsor offers that here so, go to www.atpturbo.com and look under silicone connectors. It'll be the high temp rubber 4.0 to 3.5 elbow for like 20 bucks.

Yeah I used my STICKERS well, thats like 400hp.... I used em to cover scratches up that my ol ATI airbox carved into it.
I hope to have a nice lil run posted up real soon.

Filter...is a 5 inch inlet by 5.5 inches long...barely fits in there
KN PN is RP-5113 off the top of my head.
*DOH* edit...Thanks for the props on my engine bay, its pretty crappy looking after sitting for nearly 4 months...best shine job I could do with a greasy rag that was sitting near by.

almost there man!

Alternator looks cool up there, and sorry to burst your bubble but those stickers are only worth maybe 125hp....your missing the "Honda Racing" various EIBACH, NOS, NX (yes both NOS, and NX), GREDDY, and the super powerous VTECH.....that'll net you another 475 easy

Well I've got an NX sticker but i'll have to go buy an NOS sticker to complete my set up.

WickedHugger...wish I could, its just way too far for me to attend. I wish they'd place these events in the middle of the country so the events could be easier for us on the wrong side to attend.

Kyle, thanks buddy...Got the plug boots in today and the heatshield for the exhaust housing on for the turbo. Its from Turbonetics and is real nice...don't know what the other two guy were thinking...its like anyother piece of heatshielding out there...some people are picky I guess. Its nice and simple...hopefully it'll fit
She'll be started hopefully by sunday...I wish I could do it today.

Frank, I can't thank you enough man, you are a life saver for making the bracket for me, saved a ton of time for me, it would have sucked to send it back and forth. Thanks buddy, you'll get a ride or a track pass


Heath, no joke..I like the elbow but it looks out of place. I wish jim@hts would make us a 4.0 to 3.5 elbow that'd be pimp.

Just got out of work, now time to re-boot my plug wires

Jer

I have the brackets for the back.

We're converting Scotts car to an M6 and I need to download a file from Gabes car. To at least setup a base tune.

I'll drop them if on the way out if I can.
