RE: Some pics of the turbo and stuff.
If you weren't lookin for it or didn't know it was there, you would prolly miss it. If your BOV is silent or makes no sound at then you got a real sleeper there. Are u gonna be doin any work to the motor so u can up the boost?

The bumper's not on yet (it's just resting on there in that pic), but yeah, I'll prolly have to trim it down a little. No biggie though, that's what God made the dremel for. This summer I'm hopefully getting the engine completely rebuilt (budget permitting). Ideally, I want to get it sleeved, bored, new pistons, rods, cam and valvetrain, AEM EMS, fuel pump, injectors, fluidyne, etc. etc. All that is quite expensive for someone as young as me though, so it'll probably take me into my college years to get it all done, but I am getting a job this summer (a fairly well paying one).

RE: Some pics of the turbo and stuff.
you might not want to rest that wastegate hose on the exhaust manifold it might get to hot and melt, try ziptieing it to something that doesnt get as hot....
that wouldnt be good if that melted and then you went to boost and got like 30psi because that hose melted
