They're definitely doing it wrong...




Awesome work so far Trent, look forward to the updates

 

WOOT! i even see a girly!

 

Yes james...she said maybe if I get her drunk will she hold that turbo in a certain fashion. Workin on the head studs and wire up the injectors

 

the insides of that head look nasty

 

I know it made me a little sad too. There was only a quart and a half to 2 quarts of oil after the whole thing was drained, and I didn't top it off, and it had been almost 3k miles, so we'll see. Pics in a bit. Had some college issues that needed to be taken care of so I didn't get a ton done.

 

more work! I wanna see this bitch completed

 

nice pics, looking good dude.

 

didnt your boost job take about 2 years?

 

Hahaha, Jameson. Ok, well update, I know I need pics for two days. Anywho, here's what was completed today. Oil pan was tapped, and then JB welded for extra insurance , the oil lines were ran from the turbo to the back of the block (the thing the oil pressure sensor plugs into) and the oil pan was a new Y7 steel pan. I bolted the turbo/manifold, and downpipe on, ran the rest of the IC piping that is now ran under the window washer bottle (thanks Tony) and I'm sure a few other things. Lots of pics tomorrow, and tomorrow I'll do the gauges and turbo timer and ECU, other than that, should be ready for a start up I think.

 

anticipation!
