and here is the top view:
I know, the wiring is a mess, I will work on that tomorrow. I had to get the car running so I could get to work
side view:
and a glorious pic of the headers:
well, there you go, I think the fastest turbo install on a v6 start to finish(installed the oil drain two days agoish though, and that is a pain)

You are driving that on a Exedy clutch ? How is it holding up ?
Also , what kind of fuel management are you using ?

exedy is holding up fine, but in winter=no traction, so it will last for a while I guess
I am using a 12:1 fmu for now, but next month I will buy MSnS.(I already have the pigtail harness coming; isn't that right rebel2k4???)edit: yup, I got it, and it is awesome.
I am being nice to it for now until I get the Megasquirt. keeping a close eye on the wideband...

I bought the pipes from just-intercoolers. they took forever to get here, but that wasn't their fault, it was customs... grr.

btw: my turbo doesn't seem to smoke at all so far.(knock on wood)

ya, but I heard someone here ordered something from them, and they never got it, just ended up getting a refund.... other than that, I think they are good. they gave me a phone number, and I actually talked to a real person when I called it to complain about it taking so long. so that was nice....didn't get me the package faster, but at least they didn't ignore me like some do!
