updated pics, and i am too lazy to post them on the forum so check them out..... hopin to get the intake manifold on today, and maybe radiator....


i am thinking about getting rid of the heat (never use it anyway) can i just loop the two lines from the thermostat and lower radiator hose and connect them? anyone know? if not i will put the heat in it but i am not sure if i want to or not... i am thinking not, i would clean up the engine bay up if i got rid of the pipes running to the fire wall

well i ordered the turbo from d and w deisal yesterday but it takes about two to three weeks to build.... custom stuff is hard to to get made, i kept my downpipe and taht was the problem, an upgraded turbo as well, the build sheet will be with the turbo when i get it!! i will let u know exactly that they came up with it is a capable 500hp turbo, so it is going to be a biggin!!! hehe.... as long as the parts keep rollin in i am hoping to have the car started with the stock ecu in about a month.... prolly just having to bolt up the trubo when i get that and fire it up.... i get it running on the stock ecu at idal i will beable to know everything is running good with no leaks, then work on the ms....
