where is the DS in those pics? man thats gotta be tight
Took us two days to figure out how exactly to mount the turbo lol

The DS is currently about an inch away from the compressor lol. We're going to re angle the support mount (connects to the cross-member) so it sits closer and I can get a bit more ground clearance. The oil feed is like directly below the DS.

It's tight. I like it tight

Lol Me and one other buddy did all the work on this car (minus the machining and shortblock assembly).
I can shamelessly say it's going to take a little while. Esp because we're waiting on a 3" 180* to come in and my buddy doesn't have time to fab until the weekends really.

I love kfc, but I'm aiming more for sucking up babies.

The dump out the side of the car is cool, but not gonna happen, lol this is supposed to be a DD!

Heading back over to the shop, hopefully will have some rear fenders installed today...

we get 23 inches of rain apparently. Across 52 days.

I feel like that's an over estimate.

Either way, with this kind of power and r888's and a convertible, I'm not to keen on driving in the rain anyway.

AAA guy comes up (hell yea I use my free tows), doesn't even come in the garage and says OH THIS IS A TRACK CAR IT'S STRIPPED DOWN AAA WONT TOUCH THIS. It'll be 200 BUCKS. (Mind you, the destination was pre-calculated with the towing company, just over a MILE away).
I told him, it's stock (he didn't even come into the garage, no rear bumper cover, no tail lights, cut up fenders and that's all you can see from the outside. EDIT: and the ****ing thing STILL has the STOCK rear muffler on it.
He's like, yeah it'll be 200 bucks
i told him he can gtfo someone else will tow it then.
he asks for license plate number so he can 'report it' and i told him he can't see anything, told him to leave and pointed him to the road.
we called AAA and asked what the fck was the deal, and they said he reported there was no engine in the car and no transmission, the car was stripped bare to the chassis and is a race car. (LOL yeah totally no engine, no transmission, just the way I like to fab up my turbo kits)

Next AAA guy came, said the other was a douche, helped us push the car into the street to hook it up, then helped us push the car up onto the lift.

apparently, no rear plastic bumper cover, r888's, stock suspension= race car now boys.

I HAS RACECAR.

Hah Ace it was country night for me. Some how my buddies always get me to mix liquors with brewskies and it always hurts the next day lol

Konrad- yes at the moment it does, but we will be working on mounting it higher for more clearance. Im thinking we'll cut the 3" pipe to angle the whole turbo up, so ill need a new oil feed line. Anyone know where i can get a -4 90* feed?


Quick Reply: I've got a build or something *PICS*
