JC included a full quaalude box in that photo next to the bud can to prove he wasn't high when installing.

Here is the grease turned to wax and the discoloring Rusty is talking about.

Want a really nice turbo blanket? Blacksheep racing hooked me up with a great looking piece.

Picked up a few things to play around with. Gonna get the car running tomorrow and then come up with a game plan for all the other stuff. Emails to Mazworks need to be fired off in the near future.

I like how everyone is sharing notes!

I still need to have the manifold flex pipe cut out and a new one welded in. Don't want another piece breaking off and taking out this turbo.

Been having leak on my turbo too…I think radiator fluid got into it.

Leaking pusy texture green oil….

Call Auto Dynamix. Tell him Greg said you WILL weld the part and to give you a good price. Talk to Dave.

Turbo got bolted up today to check fitment and fittings and line length. Exa pump moved over to drivers side and bolted up to a mounting plate graciously made by Betty.

Oil pan was mounted, what a nice piece. I knew it would be since its from CJM but always nice to admire it in person.
