your N/A right now arnt you? the turbo quiets it down alot cause the fins and housing bounce the sound waves making it quieter... and with the 3" exhaust im gonna be using it should be fine... cant wait to hear what it will sound like
ya im hoping that one muffler will be enough... if not i can put another one at the back
i put the intercooler in the bumper today to make sure the piping i got will fit.... fits like a fine italian hand stitched glove and with the blacked out headlights it looks so mean
still no new parts shouldnt be long the... or heads will roll :evil4:
long overdue update... i have been getting parts and pieces to finaly get the turbo on my car and it should happen soon the only things i need are a wastegate and maybe some little bits of IC piping but if i need that ill go out and buy it...
once i get my last pieces in the mail ill start putting it together and get the boost going
for engine management i was going to use a megasquirt kit but i went with somthing better, i found a good deal on a microtech LT10S the good thing is that i have a local tuner with TONS of knowlege with these systems http://www.microtechefi.com/microtec...p?product_id=6
but untill i get some more pieces and start doing "real" work to getting it boosted ill show you some stuff i have been working on...
i sometimes like leaving my radio going while im working at my friends house but they allways mess with my car and move it when im not looking... now they cant unless they push it, and they cant turn the wheel without it locking all i have to is flick a switch and my radio will come on and when i was done wiring it i found out that it also lets my little scrolling thing in the back window work so i can leave that scrolling when i go to the track or somthing lol.... pic of the super hidden switch the wire behind it is the data loger cable for my wideband...
changed the battery negative cables to somthing bigger cause the lights where dimming at night when the bass hit lol... looke better too
made up a switch panal for the 2step and high/low boost
also made this thing... i think it makes the motor look like a EVO motor lol....
here are some pics of the new parts i got
750cc fuel injectors
the exhaust
some of the other stuff got or are gonna use:
1G tallon blow off valve (given the special sasquatch porting job done to it... i dont know if it made it better or worse... only time will tell but i think i made it better lol...)
randome bits of IC piping and clamps
and the rest isnt even worth typing lol...
over the next week or so im gonna pull the dash off and start hacking apart the harness to take out unused wires and add in add in wires for gauges and stuff like that so they arnt all over the place in the engine bay... also while im in there ill clean up the alarm system and mount all the boxes on the wall so its not so messy.... its the only thing i half assed on my car and didnt fix it within a week lol...
anyways, when more work starts happening ill give another update....
My experience with the high temp flat black is that it starts looking like crap rather quickly. My manifold and a short section of pvc is painted with it on my car.
