Nicely Done! Congrats!!!

 

Happy for you bro.. You've waited TOO long!

 

a work of art, but the window decals are a huge tell.

 

congrats bro what did you use to mount those gauges? i have these defi's and i dont know how i want to mount them.

 

Looks great! Where did you locate the oil temp sender? I am getting ready to install one and I haven't decided if I want to tap the oil pan or not.

 

Those gauges are Autometer CF series gauges. Pretty sure the 3-gauge pillar is Autometer as well.

 

Congrats bro. Good to see your car with that infamous kit. Can't wait to see the article.

 

Those are LE37T, the TE37's in gunmetal do not come with a polished lip.

BTW thats a sweet setup, love the single turbo look in the bay.

 

looks real nice man!! congrats on the kit

 

At last... congrats on your project!

P.S. Espero que te cures un monton

 

Wow, the piping and the turbo in plain sight look amazing under the hood!

..and I agree about the stickers - you are doing a great job concealing the intercooler, but why? stealth is out of the equation with the vinyl... go ahead and rip out the grille and show that bad-a$$ I/C off!

and do you have ANY dyno charts you can show us? (of your car) I'd really like to see how boost builds and what the torque curve looks like... thanks and congrats again!

 

Thank you EVERYONE for the kind words. Not to sound lame or ghey but I honestly could never have done this without the help of four people. Brad from Turbonetics, Greg Vogel from Mossy Performance, protocav who pulled an all nighter to help me get the gauges and suspension in place for the test, and JimRhit who was with me and protocav until the end and made a killer gauge mount. To answer some questions,

The gauges are Autometer CF series gauges. I got them from Mossy Performance from Greg Vogel at a killer cost..... (killer in a good way)

The gauge mount for the pillar is also Autometer and also from Greg V

The gauge mount in the center is a piece of carbon fibewr from a racecar that protocav had stashed away in his garage that JimRhit cut to fit for me. BTW if you need some custom dash or stereo work in Socal hes your guy.

The oil temp sensor is actually currently the only non-functional gauge...I have all the wiring run but I needed to get a t fitting. What I am going to do is install a t fitting on the turbo oil feed and run the sensor there. (Or I should so what protocav came up with). There just quite frankly wasn't enough time this weekend to get a fitting.

Wheels are Volk LE37T 19x8.5 in the front 19x10.5 with Toyo 245/35/19 front and 275/35/19 in the back.

 

aww .. I am blushing

The pictures do the wheels no justice ... they have a certain depth to them that must be seen in person ... plus the color match w/ the SS is excellent.

Rob ... you know I never go a ride in this beast ... it was already on the stands when I got there late on Friday

 

I don't have one right now... I will be hitting a Dynojet soon though... as for how boost builds well this Tuesday I'm going to do some hard runs with a digicam and I'll make sure I get some video of the boost gauge..

 

Tuesday buddy Tuesday////

 

Rob ... we won't be using your digicam ... I'll be sure to have mine ... maybe we can get some audio this time

Tuesday it is...

Dyno ... Hmmm I smell an SD Dyno Day brewing. I need to redyno once I get the plenum on and the exhaust leak welded up. let's see what we can get together.

 

ABSOLUTELY....my digi cam audio is HORRIBLE.....

 

One question I missed, what gauges I thought were a must have...Well frankly all the ones I have. Boost, EGT, Fuel Pressure, Oil Temp, and Water Temp.

 

looking really good Rob.
was nice to meet you.
Steve

 

Likewise....your car was amazing man. One of the cleanest Gs I'ever seen...
