Im not certain how much I like this either. The gauges "lean back" and its not a big deal, but im afraid they might reflect light or something oddly.. I might go back to the ac bezel if this doesnt work.
looking good dude! i need to re wrap my headers and downpipe i like the hi temp grill paint idea, and i need a turbo blanket.. way too much heat going on under the hood.
^Yeah, im doing everything I can to bring temps down.. I just realized that my turbo has water-cooling ports on it, so I'm debating going that route as well.
okok, that's probably where i'm gonna mount mine.
the TS battery box/catch can is so sick, but it's pricey.. then you have to get a battery as well?? not yet.. i just want the kit on right now!
It is pricey, and i also have a pretty demanding sound system, so im not sure if the smaller battery can handle it.. thats part of the research ill have to do when the time comes.. For now though.. im going with what I have.. I want my car on the road NOW!
haha tell me about it! mine has been in the garage undrivable for 9 months!
i'm actually gonna be in SOCAL in August, i'm thinking of taking my car when it's finished. you guys having any meets around then?
Got some more work done today.. made the list significantly smaller..
-Wideband is installed, cable has been run, but I still need to hook up to power for gauge.
-New Dipstick installed
-Exhaust is up and in
-Battery is back on.
-Waiting on fitting to finish the oil-line install
I need to research more about hooking up the boost controller. Im not quite sure how it all goes together yet, so ive been watching youtube videos left and right. I still need to install the wastegate.
Engine bay is done.. finally. Im going to go over it tomorrow for a final check.
All that is left is the boost controller unit. I need to wire it to some power, and find a decent place to mount it where it wont get in the way and is easy to access.
