• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Swiggles is going turbo!!!



Lol no sneak out and do work on it, I try spend the whole weekend with her because when i don't have to work I'm working on the car. I honestly just don't want to listen the nagging.
 
Small update. Order the big intercool that zzp sells from frozenboost for $150 and all new T-bolt clamps. Had to order a new oil fees line too since the one I got in the kit was messed up.

Got the flywheel bolts, starter, axles back in. I did end cracking my diff cover in one spot, I'm hoping it's not bad but if it leaks I have another one :/ . The rest of the work will have to wait until the rest of my parts arrive.

Nothing exciting today so no pics.

Since I got the bigger IC I would like to do something like this to my front bumper, might just cut out the license area for now though.

Accidents are why I now have fbody brakes lol. I also have gxp brakes in the basement but not sure if I want to put them on yet.

I have a spare bumper I'm going to to do it with.
 


Ya, they did a good job on the zzp on I showed and I've seen a couple people who have cut out the license plate area but you leave the tabs there so you can still use your plate. I don't want to just cut holes and make it look like rice.
 
lol dont worry she wont get upset over it anymore that she already is about me working on the car. I get the "you spend more time on your car than you do with me" fight every now and then but dont we all guys? But all in all she is one of the most easy going girls ive ever dated.
 


Lol yup. I like that the cargument.

Got the gp and cat back on this morning. 3" cat-less tog stainless dp to 3" stainless to the Y, then 2 1/4 Borla for the rest, this exhaust was on an mp112 build that ran 12s so I'm not worried. Then I button up a few other things. I still have to run the wires and stuff for the gauges, volts gauge should be here today.

After 2 hours of searching i finally found my chrome breather, put that on. Then i soldered the AIT extension and stock tps wiring on.

got my gauges installed and wired up, still have to run the vac line for the boost and run the wire through the firewall for the oil psi. got the drivers axle in, started to fill the trans fluid and yup the diff cover is leaking :mad:, i had a feeling it was going to and shouldve just replaced it while i was down there but i was lazy. Lucky for me i have another cover, now its just a ***** to get the axle out again.

Finished up may an vac lines, then decided to do some polishing since my BOV was very dirty and so was my wastegate.
