Lucifer gets new Turbo setup!

[b337yla]

instead of using exhaust pipe on the intake side. how hard would it be to go pick up some J pipe from pepboys? no bashing on your build. it would prob help out the air flow and have less worry about pieces of that harbor freight weld fall into the intake side

I don't have a pep boys. Well it's an hour away anyway.

Will have to check it out next time I'm near

Open exhaust is the same thing. I ran open downpipe for a year till I got an exhaust ticket.

In Indiana the law says that u I have to have a muffler. Does not mention cats. So the. Cherry bomb would actually pass as legal.

They don't mention cats cause cats are federal law.

Lucifer is alive! It runs and runs good. I had a low oil light come on that i had to deal with. It ended up being the oil sending unit was bad. So to get a new unit on i had to remove the intake manifold bracket. The sending unit was to close to the bracket with the t in place. I trimmed the bracket so that a long extension could be put in line of the sending unit. I now have my oil light off and a new ol sending unit along with my gauge.

The turbo seems good. Only went a couple blocks. Spun the tires in 1st when i wasn't trying to

As i was pulling back to my drive the front driver side sway bar came lose at the control arm. I guess i took the nut off and didn't remember it. I dont think any damage was done. It seems fine. Ill get that fixed tomorrow. Im done for the night.

Im very happy with the car tho.

Just come to Michigan where the only rules are you have to have at least 3 and a half wheels and be able to go 70 mph.

That's Cool! It's always a relief when a project starts up and drives for the first time.

I have never gotten a ticket for exhaust. Plenty of people around here with cars with bad or rusted out exhaust that sound like total crap. Actually was getting pulled over once and a truck went by that was so loud the cop stopped talking and just looked at him. The cop was just like DUMB A**. He didnt give me a ticket and didnt even go after the truck.

I dont think exhaust is that important in southern indiana.

I have never had a cop mess with me about exhaust noise. My Sentra is obnoxiously loud and I feel bad about leaving my neighborhood in the early hours of the morning but I don't feel like spending the money to fix it.

Lucifer sounds good though! Good Job!

My old neighbor used to call the cops on me for driving my STOCK Audi TT down my driveway! That car is so quite you can hardly hear it idle. He would just see my headlights turn on and call the cops. Got to the point that cops told him if he calls one one time over that car in my driveway they would give him a ticket! Not long after that he came out drunk with a baseball bat and was bitching at me over the audi. I recorded him on my phone and called the cops. He got charged with a felony for intimidation with intent. He later sold his house and moved. Only if he was around for Lucifer!!! Now all my neighbors are cool and like my toys!

Where I used to live, I had some neighbors that complained a couple of times to my Land Lord while my exhaust was still stock but she told them to mind their own business lol.

I had to ask william a few question on the car last night. I found out my spark gap was way to much. Then once i found that out i started to get bad spark jump at the coil. Tonight im gonna go get new plugs and wires and try again.

I found TDC and marked the pulley with paint. I then set timing just at the top of the timing mark bracket (14). I had my harbor freight gun set to 14 as well. That was with the vacuum assist plugged in.

I have my headlights and turn signals back in. I dont think ill have time to install my seats untill after the trip.

Im new to car tuning so this is tricky for me. I have a good understanding im just new at it. I can do the mechanic work all day long tho.

[mikemounlio]

Tonight is new ngk spark plugs and wires. Ill try to get the fan mounted and connected the right way. Ill get the hood and the grill on tonight as well.

So i have a friend head to my house to start pulling my windshield tint off and that dumb A** pulled my door tint off the passengers side. So now i have to go back and have it re-tinted. I did get the tint off the front tho. MUCH better.
