Default stage 1.5 of boost install

Well today was another day of test fitting. Got everything installed, and everything looks to be fitting pretty damn well. I got the measurements i needed to get the exhaust cut out flanged, so hopefully i can get that done soon. The next tricky part will be getting the dumptube plummed back into the down pipe. Ive got a guy im most likly gonna be going to, but if you guys know any in VA that can hook me up, let me know.
here are some pictures of give guys an idea of where im at

here is a pic from the mock up phase of my 1st kit, and the little ol 14b


here is the picture of the surprisingly nice header i got from ebay for about 20 bucks shipped


And here is the money shot of the manifold and turbo, and wastegate. this turbo sits higher then the old HF, will make the oil drain MUCH easier to deal with

Damn you and your motivation. I mocked up some intercooler piping yesterday for about an hour then called it quits.

looks even better in person. tell patrick to get a new jack cause were not gonna do what we had to do today again when we put everything on, and put two more damn wheels on your creeper. oh yeah, and your theory of not taking long to get home from your place dude..... like 2 hours on both 95 and route 1....you suck.
