just wait till you see the crazy fins and junk i bought on ebay... they say they improve the airflow up to 600% per one, and i bought the mega pack my car is gonna be hella fly, mad type jdm yo

[Damkid]

Ah, I'd have to see the final product before I can get an honest opinion

Looking great, Mike! That's going to do wonders for your radiator and intercooler flow... the pressure balance just improved dramatically!

[sasquatch]

got my new injectors (rc 550cc) and got some other cool parts... but those are for after the turbo is in the car, and its a suprise

i also got bored today lol... so i had some fun with a grinder and a jig saw







still not done yet... gonna weld in some little things on the side to help it stop flexing and stuff....

thanks shortiva for the idea

[sasquatch]

Looks great Mike! Now for the new injectors and laptop!

Nice progress so far Mike

[sasquatch]

i forgot to post pics of my engine bay after all the wiring got done...

here is an overall shot...


here is the main harness going in to the engine bay...


and this is the only spot where you can see alot of wires... cant see that many can you 8)



and i just got some new parts today my old fuel rail somehow rusted out from the inside so when fuel pressure was applied it sprayed everywhere but that will be fixed with this




looks So much better than the factory one


and the inside bore is way way WAY bigger than factor so all the injectors will get the same pressure and it will be able to flow ALOT of fuel now my fuel lines will be AN fittings and be super nice looking and be easy to disconect the light is shining thru the 3 injector port from the camera... its about a 1/2 inch bore i think...

Hmm, I need to devise some grand scheme to have this car ready for tomorrow........

[Aaronbrook37]

Awesome... this is really sick! Can't wait for videos/pics of it running/driving, Mike!

[sasquatch]

bling bling


to make sure i can still put the cams in the right spot to put it all synchronized i chopped the bottom off the backing plate so i can slip it on and bolt it on without having to take the gears off




then when im done i just lift it out

also made an adjusting tool...



i bet not many people have seen this... wires on a dist plug that are UN-cracked!!!! lol...


i also took off my timing belt covers and chopped them up.... i made it so only the bottom 3 inches of it is left so i can set the timing...


if everything goes as planned it should be running on monday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! im gonna miss the last race of the season so ill have to wait till next year for it to open again... (greg, no coments about your track thats open all year, it makes me sad lol...) but next year ill be back with a vengeance and ready to take on those big bad hondas

more to come...

stay tuned
