I would be concerned about that passenger side MAF. Having it in the middle of a bend(and directly after that Y split) like that is going to leave you with some uneven and turbulent airflow. It's best to have a few inches of straight pipe before and after the MAF to ensure laminar flow across them. I hope it works out for you, but if you run into issues with the tunability of this setup, I would recommend finding a way to straighten those MAF tubes. ECU/MAF can be picky sometimes.
Aside from that the construction looks top notch. Last edited by ChipsWithDips; 05-09-2011 at 04:37 PM. |

Looks flat out amazing! I am just wondering how yall are going to manage the dump pipes in the front. Are yall going to fab up a custom under carriage for the dump to let out its gases? I think the tuning is going to be a fun time, but Im sure it will be for the best and we will see some power!

Impressive build. My only concern is the placement of the turbo that close to the radiator and what appears to be a plastic shroud and such. Either way, looking forward to seeing some tuning results.

You are hereby obligated to provide audio clips, video clips, 0-60's, etc to everyone, or we shall remove your big toes as punishment and we will spoon feed them to that bangin turbo you got there.

all of this is exciting! amazing fab work, but like everyone else id be concerned with the hot side of the turbo behind the radiator and up against the front of the engine. can both items take prolonged heat with no adverse effect?

I'm not worried about the heat. I'm going to pick up the stock parts that came off the car today and will be putting a turbo blanket on. I'm more worried about the tuning...we shall see. 4pm Thursday is my D-day.

If all goes well I should be starting my car for the first time about that time on Thursday.
Good luck.
