Hey man- I was wondering, do you have any other pics of your intercooler mounting?
I was wondering where you placed your brackets. I see the one on top in the center, but was wanting to know where else it's being supported.
Thanks much.
ps- Any pics of your manifold or turbo install yet?
Running in 1-2 months, completed and driving in about 9-12 months, would be my guess.
I make very conservative guestimates, nowadays.
I remember when I started on the car last April, thinking I'd be done by September, lol.
I will. What type of turbo are you going to run? It appears to me that this manifold is designed to specifically run an on-center turbine housing.
That's why I needed 1 full inch of T4 spacer added in. Just something to consider.
Today, I picked up a new coil pack harness, and cut it all up...
Would love to see your finished project.
Question, Morganson: Which brand of wires are you using? I bought blue NGK's, but would rather have red ones, purely for aesthetics.
Also, your Middle coil(sitting on plug 3) seems to sit straight, whereas mine tilts slightly to clear a bolt casting...
Actually, it is a Treadstone, or at least a copy of Treadstone.
Got it off a Russian on Craigslist for $120. The turbo flange is centered just behind #4 runner, so it does sit back a bit, about 1" more than I'd like.
And because it does sit a bit back, I just put firesleeve over my new speedo...
Yeah, there's a flange for the wastegate on the mani, and i'm just using a generic hks-style wastegate with a 10lb spring.
Only a few of the exhaust parts are Vibrant. But it is all stainless, and will be from turbo to tip, including the brackets.
Rerouted back into the dp. I want the quietest exhaust possible, even if it reduces power.
Hence, two full size mufflers and a cat(even though its now emission-exempt).
So, I finally received my extra long exhaust studs today, so I mocked up my manifold with spacer and turbine housing.
Now I can start planning the exhaust, so I just ordered:
3 5/8 Precision turbine outlet flange
3 5/8 Precision V band clamp
3 1/2 Stainless mandrel J tubing
3 1/2 stainless...
So ont the downside, I found out about 30 minutes after I bled my clutch slave, that it decided to continue to 'bleed' itself; completely dry, onto the garage floor.
So I ordered a rebuild kit for it, as the bore looks and feels perfect. I think the piston seals are just shrunken a bit.
Got my...
you can throw nearly any 16" wheel on from ford, nissan, toyota, mitsubishi, as long as it's 5 lug(of course).
Can you get your hands on some spare tires/ doughnuts?
