I dont have a job anymore so all work has been postponed til i find another job.

However in saying that i have found a turbo place that will remove my old waste gate actuator and put on a 5psi one for me. I have also purchased a RRFPR and just need to fit that hopefully this weekend.

Ok project back on, I have 1 week till i start new job so want to get as much done as possible in that time frame.

Found a place that will put on a new actuator on the turbo so ill be taking that there tomorrow.

FPR will be installed as soon as adapter arrives.

Want to get intercooler mounted and all pipe work planned out, cant get turbo mounted till god damm fuel lines are out of the way.

UPDATE: intercooler mounted cost $17 and about 2hrs time. Stil need to do bottom bracket which ill do tomorrow morning

I knows its a sh*tty pic its was getting dark. Ill put up another one tomorrow when im finished

Oh and i gotta get some smaller bolts tomorrow to thats why there is gaps on the top mount

that is one BIG intercooler

what PSI are you going to run again as that thing will be good to and above 18-20 psi.
it may be even a little to big for what you want at this time, but then I dont know a lot about that sort of thing so I could be wrong.

but still its looking great

Post by **I8A4RE** » Sun Jun 08, 2008 8:28 pm

yeah i know, the problem is because of the bozz front bar it would look real sh*t with a tiny one in there also its the only size i could find with the ports on both sides. I have spoken to a turbo guy and he said it should be fine but ill just see how it goes, if it causes to much lag, then ill just get a smaller one. do dramas

Post by **aza013** » Sun Jun 08, 2008 8:32 pm

even if you keep that as is and get a little side mount one untill you up the turbo when you get the time and cash.
