Thanks for the support guys. I guess I will have to order a lot of materials, because once this is out, it looks like it will fly off the shelf in a hurry. As far as exhaust systems go, it will...

There is a lot of work left guys. Miles have to be put on the kit (I am sure James will be more than happy to do that for us all), everything has to be just right. At that point I have to get on to...

Yeah, I am a bit different when it comes to that...it's not always perfect the first time, but it was very close to it.

UPDATE: James (customer/owner) came by last night and got the car out on the road. After a short drive everything seemd good, even the base map was very good. He parked the car for 30 minutes,...

These are post cat sensors from both banks. Since these are narrow band, and only there for emission, it does not matter that they are on the same bank.

The car is now ready to go, just need the base map for the 750cc injectors (should be in today). This is what things look like before the car is back on the ground; Turbo with filter before...

I think what you mean is an electronic dump after the wastegate to allow you to vent either to atmosphere or back to the exhaust. Like an electronic exhaust cut-out. If it was before it would just...

To add to the above statements....the open dump gates will be loud...very loud at WOT. If you stay out of boost there is no noise at all because the wastegates are closed. It get's loud as you...

Just get your kitty (eavater) to do it. Injectors are very easy to do, you just make sure to put some clean oil on your finger tip, and lube the rings before sliding them in to the rail, and back...

Well, for starters there is no such thing as a SS divided turbine housing...remember, this is a twin scroll turbo system. On top of that, I use Precision turbos and Precision does not offer this as...

Well, it's 1:15AM and I am done for yesterday I guess. Got a solid start on the wastegates. While at it I had to move the transmission harness further up..no big deal at all, takes about two...

There really is not need for instructions. These things are as simple as you could get. The inlet (npt x npt nipple in pic below) goes to a manifold vacuum source, and then just take the outlets...
