lol ya i didn't feel like taking everythig out of the box the bushings are around somewhere.

and hands off the beer, i'm running kinda low too, funny how having some beer while working slowly truns into us sitting in lawn chairs and just drinking lol
 
What kind of turbo is that? Is that the same one that comes in the pony down turbo kit. I think the kit is around $3000. I was looking to put a single turbo kit on my car in a year or so, and was wondering if the pony down kits were good.
 
track heat cam... i'll grab the specs later, or you can look on trickflows website

total i have paid for the turbo minus the PMS and MSD is about $2200 canadain so like $100 USD :D :rlaugh:

All job completion estimates must be multiplied by the total number of beers consumed.
 
I think new shoes should be on your to buy list, not turbo parts:p

but seriously, it looks really nice. and looks like its going smoothly so far
im jealous. ive wanted a turbo for a while now
 
got a abit done last night on the down pipe but my sister stole the camera (actually its hers so i steal it) i'll post pics later after i have more done tonight.


oh and those are my work shoe :p they're supposed to be dirty :D
