I didn't say anyone can, I am sure I could. With my TT kit it would be just like adding a Stillen SC I would put the air to water cooler in the grill because of the lack of room in my front bumper.

I have also seveal times drove my car into the shop on Friday night after supper swapped the engine, all accesories and turbos have it wrapped up and drive it out of the shop Sunday night

Blow a motor and rebuild like many of us here and then talk about sacrifice.

I love forced induction...but i love other things too.

so blowing an engine IS NOT A BIG DEAL

blowing a built engine sucks banana flavored elephant *****!

we ironically we build to drive another day in each case.

So ill be the one to say it. My car is wraped whit-ish. i know the color is not what you would want it to be... but actualy it was suposto look more white and pearl then white and pink lol. but who cares, its not your car right? your not driving it right?

I just look at it as a color no one has. some will like it some wont. I dont care. its my car right?

As for the wrap job... I know its coming off n stuff. Ive talked to the company who did the job and they have new wrap waiting for me to drop off the car to re do the wrap.

its somthing wrong with the wrap glue and the plastic on the z. Thew wrap sticks to the Metal just fine. its only the bumpers and ss that dont hold the wrap. Again it will be fixed in about a week.

As for the turbo install.... the shop was closing to soon i didnt get much time to work on the car. basicaly all i did was hang the exhaust section. nothing else. Saturdya da 14th should be more progress. i have a good 12 hours of hands on time.

the list of stuff that needs install is as follows:

o Test Pipes
o ECU
o injectors
o fuel pump 255
o ICP & BOV
o IC
o oil/water lines/ fittings
o Apexi AVCR
o oil pump
o wide band
o and mishimoto cooler thermostat

honestly i dont exspect to be finished tommorrow, but im going to do as much as i can.

o If you dont like the project then stop looking at this post.

o if you think or know a betterway to do somthing, or rout somthing. Mention a beter idea tactfuly. im open for advice. but dont be all rude about it. no need for that.

o if you think you can make a better set up then by all means start a new thread and do it. no naa saying for now on.

this is my car my project, so hop in or close the door. Thanks for your help.

Yes you are... but at least they're related topics but don't go around telling people in SOMEONE else's thread to:


"o If you dont like the project then stop looking at this post.

You speak of "tact" as if your using any yourself... I'm just pointing out Forum etiquette but I guess it doesn't apply to you. If the OP doesn't mind... cool post on but remember your a guest in someone else's thread.

Its all good man. I was going to start a new thread when mine is off the dyno. Nice progress. I have just had so much sheit going on with my weekends that its hard to get much done. Next weekend is a solid build weekend and hopefully I can dyno it that Sunday.

Did you do a return fuel line? I drilled out my fuel rails (cheap bastard i know), and modded the fuel assembly housing for it.

I dont know if you ever stated this but.. What are you power goals? How many psi are you running the SC and the turbo at?

I pulled my 8.5lb pulley off and put on the 6lb and will be tuning off the wastegate at around 5 psi.....for starters.

Are you running an IC for your stillen? I actually bought a new water to air since my old one was so beat to turds I was afraid it wouldnt be very effective at letting air pass through to get to my turbos IC.
