sfearl1 · 04-21-2012, 04:56 PM

ha, what are you waiting for! are you going to make it over for the first drive??

wheee! · 04-21-2012, 06:11 PM

Believe me, I will be among the first to see it on the road. I will respect Sasha's privacy while the build is in progress, but when James takes delivery... game on!

The auto version comes with a manual transmission swap.....

Looking good Sasha! James sure is excited about it too. Nothing but praise for your work ethic and quality. Time to take this company public; I want in on the IPO....

Well, it is Sunday afternoon and I am done for the week….very tired. At this time I am just making duplicates of everything built so far. These items will stay behind for me to copy for future kits.

I was also toying with the idea of having a single waste gate, but that does not look like it will work out. Room under there car is at a premium. I spend some more time with making the charge pipe coming out of the turbo compressor. There will be a bit of a trick to it when a customer installs it, as it has to go in together with the oil relocation plate. Not a big deal, I will make sure the instructions are good with a lot of pictures.

On with some pictures:

Twins (well, almost):

The second set installed

Charge pipe coming from the front:

Going through, you can see that it changed a bit from previous pictures:

New down pipe:

Oil reservoir in place, it allows the oil from the turbo to drain while the car is off. This is a very important part of the oiling system. Because the oil is allowed to drain, it does not sit in the turbo, and leak past the seals. This means no smoking at start-up. With this reservoir, it is as if the turbo is mounted up high in the engine bay.

Weld up close:

Now it is time to eat, and get some rest.

When you get this installed, can you please get some ground clearance pics? Will it fit under the current bracing?

The lowest part will be the 3" flex pipe on the down pipe, and even it will not be a problem at all.

When this customer came in, the test pipes were lower than anything else on this kit.
