Finally made time to finish the assembly. Dropping her in this evening. Ron assembled and blue printed the bottom end. Johnny torque the heads on and they made me do the rest. Learned a ton. Im back out of town tomorrow on work but next time Im in town the fabrication should be done and she'll be reday for break in. I still want to convert it to a full fuel return system and up the pump size but that will have to wait. I am sticking with the single low mount setup w/ a 7065 Comp turbo, single 3 exhaust no rsonator same muffler. Post more when I got it.

Made some more time. Getting excited! Motor is in. Im buttoning everything down on the motor. Johnny is welding VBands on the stock manifolds. That was the biggest issue we had before. Exhaust leak b4 the turbo. This should remedy that problem. Lots of room to run piping due to swaping motor mounts out. 1 more week hopefully. Then start up and break in. Its been a long road but this is why we do this. Atleast for me..... Working on them is part of the enjoyment. Ill start a.new thread when she's done and we have some hi boost numbers!

.Hell. .... Even Denofas BMW drift car is a low mount!

Switched out my mishimoto thermostat after hearing another horror story about their products. Sure enough the seal is already busted after 4k miles. Stock unit looks fine with 6k on it. Set up the fuel system and pressure gauge. Mable layed down some sweet fwd numbers!

Yeah, I wouldn't run a Mishimoto part if you gave it to me. Their quality control is godawful. If that thermostat had failed closed, it would have been an expensive problem.

O&G · 08-01-2013, 10:28 PM

That exact thing happened to my friends Subbie and boooooom. Mishimoto products are garbage.... All they're known for around here is their warranty replacement because they're products are always failing. I can't believe they're still around.

I came over here from the Subie world, so I'm well aware of their quality. I ran one of their radiators on my Sti, but I got a Wednesday one and it didn't leak. Didn't fit quite right, but it at least held water.

Last of the parts ordered today! Acestainless.com is an awesome site for fabricators. We have the game plan for the upgraded turbo manifold finalized, just waiting on materials. We will be running 1 wastegate and 1 bov pre-intercooler. All the after cooler piping is done!
