Parting together a turbo kit, looks good so far. What all are you waiting on now? Turbo back exhaust?

Some panic motorsports business there, good luck with the rest. Keep us updated.

[wonton]

turbo Back exhaust, fuel pump, radiator, clutch, SS braided line for coolant, oil, and possibly fuel lines! i think thats what im lacking so far! O! and a intake pipe and filter for the compressor inlet!

[RotorNutFD3S]

Sean, you may get my turbo inlet pipe. That thing is too damn restrictive for my turbo, but I'll need it until I fab up something to match the inlet on the 2871.

[wonton]

when the time comes when i need it. it will be far far long after your car is up and running! how much do you want for it man?

[RotorNutFD3S]

We'll talk about it at work. ;)

[wonton]

ight! :)

[Spark!Plug]

[wonton]

sweet!

as it gets closer to intsall time ill post up in here, and ill be making a new thread as well! i pretty much have all my parts but what im lacking is a few tools! :(

[Spark!Plug]

what tools do you need?

[wonton]

im gonna need a small welder(one that can plug into a regular home wall socket) a sawzall, wire brush.

i do have some sockets and ratchets.....but i guarantee i dont have every single one i need!

[RotorNutFD3S]

Well, I can tell you at this point after putting my car back together, I have every tool you need. :)

[wonton]

[RotorNutFD3S]

Well yeah, but I didn't need that. :butt:

[wonton]

*******! :p

[sharkythesharkdogg]

My dad runs a shop up in South Carolina, I'll check and see what he has lying around you might need. He might have some good deals, I dunno. He's helping a buddy with his turbo/forged internals install as we speak.

[wonton]

sweet! let me know!

[FE3tMX5]

A Protege valve cover would look cool on your engine. ;)
