Well, as a few people know, my ECU fried a month ago. Thanks to 1revvin not selling me his ECU, I turned a simple thing to a huge thing. I was planning on doing the huge stuff when it got warmer, but ohwell, i'm having fun now.



I have a new Garrett M43 turbo on the car (all the pics so far)

Almost finished my manifold for the turbo (not finished finishing it yet)

Using 2 tial 38mm wastgates (waiting for the flanges right now)

3 1/2" downpipe to a 3 1/2" to 2 1/2" y-pipe

Got a Microtech LTX8 coming now

Building an on-board PC so I don't need to carry around my laptop everywhere

Front mount coming

Got 2 Greddy Type-S BOV's (I just want the wow factor...lol)



Here is the turbo bolted up to the manifold

You can see that i'm finally cleaning up the engine bay now, I know some of you started complaining about that a while ago https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



I also don't have A/C anymore and have removed alot of the junk I don't need anymore (excess wiring, brackets, etc...)



Thats about it so far, just waiting now.

Well, its coming with both since I am thinking about becoming a dealer, microtech said that they would send me both. Including shipping, i'm getting everything (coils and all) for $950. Not a bad deal to me https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Thanks man. I'm polishing it up as we speak and am also filling in the inside with this cool metal stuff I found so I can smooth it all out into a cone kinda thing. Somebody knows what i'm talking about.
