Lucifer gets new Turbo setup!

[dliverance]

I think wedge engineering makes brackets for festivas too

Yes i bought their double locking sliders. They had the drivers side bracket. They could not find the jig for the passenger side tho. I bought the universal bracket tho. All ill have to do is fab up a couple small brackets and drill a couple holes. Ill weld my brackets to the universal bracket. I have the drivers side as a perfect left hand template tho.

I didnt want recliners! This car is meant to be raw and a race ready street car. When others get in it i want them to grab the harness belts out of fear! And i might not have the harness bar in by madness!

[errjam]

did you use their sliders? did you consider the recliners, for DD, ? keep us updated on harness bar!

I got my 1st Corbeau seat in and i love it.



I placed the order for the 2nd seat already. I should have it by the start of next week. Which means ill have to be busy if i want them in by madness. They are very comfy! Maybe not comfy after a 10 hour drive to madness but comfy to and from work and around town. I wont have my harness bar built by then so ill have my belts mounted to wrong way straight to the floor. Might leave the normal belts in until after madness!

I finally got to spend some time in the garage last night.

My exhaust is well under way. I will be remaking it after madness tho. This being my 1st attempt means it might work but it looks like junk. I will get a good working exhaust to get me through madness and a few little projects after Lucifer. Once i have a few projects out of the way i will remake the exhaust.

My future plan is to use a manual cutout. I want the manual cutout so i can still run my hater pipe out of the fender and still have a normal exhaust when i need some quite time. It should workout pretty good. Ill go with manual and have the knob mounted to the dash. Might do a funny sticker around the knob or something stupid. I cant wait for that but 1st i need a bit more practice with my welder.

Gonna buy a ton of scrap exhaust pipe and just weld weld weld.


Last night i have to cut the relief hole for the wastegate. I then welded my ugly elbow to the plate in the correct orientation. Tonight i have make some clearance to allow for the mounting bolts to clear. I also have to cut the elbow to allow the pipe for the wastegate to tie back into it. I dont think ill have time to get any more then that done tho. Looks like ill have to finish the exhaust up on friday.

[mikemounlio]

Been crazy sick with issue after issue. I have gotten nothing at all done on the car lately.

[mikemounlio]

No. I have been so many times now i kinda quite taking pictures. I think i got 2 short videos of a mini that was SC (500hp) thats it tho.

[dliverance]

Do you have any pics from the autox?

[mikemounlio]

Sadly no car stuff tonight. I had to pull up old carpet. Looks like tomorrow will be more carpet! I hope to be back on it Thursday.

I should be able to get the car running this week to weekend (so in about a month or 2).

LOL QFT

[mikemounlio]

Finally home again! My short vacation was great but im ready to get the car going now. I bought a new Rugger SR 1911 over the weekend so no passenger seat for me for a while. Ill have 1 good comfy seat to go to madness in? I should be able to get the car running this week to weekend (so in about a month or 2).

[mikemounlio]
