I'm gonna come up with something for it, I don't really like where it is. I may mount it on the underside of the sway bar bracket and hook it into the bottom of the steel return line.

 

Well it's been a while since I've updated this thread, but with getting hurt and getting laid off I haven't had the ability or the finances to do much. I'm hoping that after xmas I may be able to buy a couple of the last pieces I need to get her running since I do have a job again....thanks timmies
I'm going to pick up a couple of these wastegate actuators

a turbo rebuild kit for the old T3

and then all I need is a one way check valve to the MAP sensor, some PVC piping for the coldside, a couple of silicone couplers, some worm clamps, spark plugs, and that's about it....it feels almost done and it's been hurting me that so little progress has been made over the last couple months.

when does sparta open? i'm gonna make that my deadline for having her running and tuned in.

 

Glad to hear you're working man, any job is still a job. Sparta usually starts the first week of April, plenty of time.

 

Thanks Pony,

OK, looks like I've finally decided to go with a cartech box upper. It's a nice polished piece that will contrast the grimy motor/engine bay I have lol. Got a pretty good price on it too.

 

What base does it bolt to, stock, gt40,?

 

That one bolts to the stocker, which I have a Tmoss ported stocker on the car.

 

Those intakes are awesome, huge top end power, not much bottom end which helps the launch quite a bit as there's much less wheelspin, looks sweet man, will surely dress up the engine bay.

 

Well I've managed to get 99% of my coldside done. I know I'm gonna get flamed for it by some people, but like most of the project I'm doing this cause it was cheap, within my abilities, and because it will work. I'm using 2 inch PVC piping on the inlet side and 3 inch on the outlet. All I need is one more 90* coupler for the inlet and my upper to show up so I can finish fabbing my outlet.


sorry for the size, i had the camera on the wrong setting

 

Kind of like polishing a turd

 

^?Are you saying the intake is too good for his car?
