Didn't get done last night, Garfinkle had an unexpected guest with a BMW K1200 that needed trans fluid changed (and the guy had no clue how to do it).



Parts are done. Have to pick them up tonight. Might get it started today. As long as my flange gaskets arrived.

Got done with as much as I could do at the house. The rest will be done at the shop.

I drove mine today! First time in a month. Nice little drive. Got into boost once or twice. Runs sweet!

Got the exhaust and new turbo on. Finally seeing 8-10psi (depending on how much I whale on it)



Definite improvement!! I was only getting 6psi MAX with the old system I had on her. Spools a hell of a lot faster, and isn't as loud as I thought it would be. Me happy.

i had off of work and pulled the exhaust and any thing Else to get the 91 TII i have running. that when really well considering it started right up after sitting for at least a year or two the idle and drive noise from the exhaust is a little rasspy but I'm sure once i start driving it it will straiten out other then that and a vac leak somewhere car drives fine. will tune it up tommorrow after work. also between running back and forth between both cars i have the 88 just about ready to pull out just have to drain the fluids and disconnect the oil cooler hose and radiator hose and shes ready to come out
