Congrats on getting it started! The cruise looked like it was a hell of a time. When do you think your turboed motor will be in and runnin?

Motors already in the car I'm just waiting on a few little things and once I have it all I'm tearing into it. I want it done in 3 weeks or less.(good part about have a work van I can tear it apart and work on it) Once everything is installed I'm going to run it with the wastgate off (no boost) and make sure theres no issues with it then drive it 100+/- to get it tuned.

Some more goodies came in today. MMMMM

Going to install my stock headlights in a while. Still waiting on a few things to show up then its turbo time.

STOCK HEADLIGHTS

Before

After

Intercooler test fit...Going to have to remove the grill to make it work. I'm going to try to make it work with the grill.

Those stock lights should put out a lot more light than your old projectors.

90crxowner · 05-29-2008, 09:57 PM

Just went and aimed them and they do put out a lot more light. Plus they look 1000000 times better.

I've been in my garage since about 10min after I got home from work. 13 hour work day

O its on now b1tch

Yea I ordered a 1/2 size EG radiator

This is all trial and error right now but the intercooler is mounted. Trying to figure if I can keep my grill in tacked or if I have to cut it still.

**dre5491** · 06-02-2008, 10:00 AM

Its almost boosted =). It'd be tight if you could hide the intercooler some how so no1 would know it was boosted till you got into a lil bit higher rpms and they can hear the turbo spool..

Paint the intercooler black lol

^^^Flat black spraypaint...The upgrade that sits between zipties and duct tape in the tool box.
