I must be semi-mod lol

 

I guess so..lol..or they locked my thread somehow so the title couldnt be changed...idk why they would do that but meh its whatever.

 

did another test fit to see if i needed more pipes or couplers and so forth...went ahead and mounted the intercooler, little over kill but i couldnt beat the price.

 

what are the two couplers on the top? other then that looking good!

 

unfortunately the way the turbo sits you have to clock the outlet towards the top and run a charge pipe inline with top of the rad. and of course the wastegate is in the way so i had to rig an offset and cut more off the pipe connecting to the intercooler.

just trying to make it work for now...Id kill for a tig welder right about now...lmao

 

Hey honkracker can you toss me a 07 weld on MAF flange? I'm gonna get a guy to redo my IC pipe and weld on a blow through MAF.

 

sure

 

so far so good bro!

 

thanks for the kind words guys but imho it looks like hell...im not used to "making do" like this.

 

getting closer chris.. are you doing blow thru maf this time?

 

nah...maybe something to play with at a later date but for now im just trying to keep things as simple as possible since its already a tough deal.

btw you should get your package mon or tues

 

BEEFFY Intercooler <3

 

That's a BIG ___ INTERCOOLER

 

lol...too big...the worst part is the fact that the stock bumper covers nearly half of it. maybe a decent (clean) body kit would be in order. something that has a large opening that might allow air to all of the intercooler.

 

cut your bumper like ptuning's TA tc

 

Just remove the bumper all together....call it weight reduction

 

idk about cutting on the stocker, just seems cheesy to me. Well i mean for a street car that is. the only body kit i see that would fit the bill is the rado..little pricey though.

 

dont tempt me...lol...i may do that when i go to the track.

 

Hey Chris whats happening bud, your project is coming nicely btw !

I tried to find if your motor is built already but there are alot of pages, lol

I saw that you want to change the title of it, let me know what you want and i'll change it for you.

 

thanks yev, im still on stock block. Didnt have enough for a built engine, that will have to come later if at all. I was going to change the title to Hodge Podge: Houston style....lol
