Looking Awesome Forty! Can't wait to see some vids and numbers

 

did you replace the fuel filter forty? Cant even see the front mount, lol digging it

 

Yeah, i dont know what the deal is with my valve cover, but the paint is not holding up to well with the new level of heat in the engine bay. I mean it had started to fade on the front side before the turbo install, but now if I touch it while its hot the paint comes right off..[:@]

Riceburner, no I didnt change it, but I will today. Thanks for the head's up, for whatever reason that didnt even cross my mind.

Thanks for all the nice comments guys. I promise to post the video as soon as I have it.. Keep your fingers crossed for me not running into anymore issues, and it'll be up REAL soon!!

 

Then get a powder coat

 

nice pics forty, i didnt realize pictures turned out that great on your camera

way to rock the APC filter there...haha

cant wait to see the beast tuned in person

 

can you describe the exhaust sound? does it sound good?

 

well **** now i feel like i need to get an EK coupe to fit in.

looks damn good man. cant wait for videos and numbers

 

Well, I've got a really small leak that I think can be solved with a little extra elbow grease, so it's a bit decieving right now. But, I can tell you that when cruising on the highway, she sounds stock. When I get on it all I can hear is spool, there is no exhaust noise. It's pretty crazy

Oooooh, look at Mr. La dee da with his powdercoated valve cover...[sm=smiley32.gif] ....jay kay remmy, jay ****ing kay!

It's getting painted black....as well as lots of other things. But, I've got mechanical issues to deal with first...in due time


Oh and Tyler, those pics are from Lori's camera, I love that thing.

 

Nice pics! It really looks like a good clean install. When you paint your valve cover take a wizz wheel or air tool buffer and grind off the letters on it so they stay silver. I think that looks cool, but just a suggestion.

 

There is nothing like the sound of a turbo spooling. GOD I MISS THAT SOUND SO MUCH. Twin turbos spooling to 15 psi shifting to second, going a little sideways from torque, burning the tires.........now i made myself feel bad[&o]
