woo woo yellow car came alive last night. idled it for about 5 minutes before deciding to pull it apart to replace the unknown aged waterpump with the brand new one i forgot i had https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif so the car is basically back to the same point it has been for a year lol. but it DID run for 5 minutes, t78 open 4" downpipe huge streetport = way too loud for inside garage action https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif.



but yea now I'm gonna leave it apart again until i receive my order of SS so I can build a nice battery tray then I'll put it back together and it should be good to go. it was idling like a ******* champ. no revs cause i didnt attach the cable to the gas pedal yet https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif



video sometime this year https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif

isnt it nice to have some long term projects come to compleation. ya 4 inch dp open is not nice on the ears, my 3.5 was loud. im runnin 2 inline mufflers and its still not the quietest. borla xr-1 and magnaflow, sounds good but at 3k under load its extreamly loud incar. anyways congrats

thats why i reinsulated and dynomated my whole car while it was apart i think in the long run all those little paper cuts will pay off lol
