Blog Title: jjrock5 GSX 'under construction'

The beginning of my GSX can be found here: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/hang...struction.html
I started with a pretty much stock 1999 GSX and have been installing and stacking parts on this money pit. I am in the search for 400 whp out of the stock bottom end 7 bolt with ~150K miles. Now that I've somewhat filled you in I hope my entries will end with me fulfilling my goal. Enjoy and thanks for reading.

I made a couple of videos quckly depicting the HX35 in my car while I had it. The second one depicts some tips that you may use if you want to use the Punishment Racing FMIC and the bumper/bumper support.

I disassembled the turbo a little while ago and now that Im ready to put it back together I decided that since Im not going to polish it I'd still give it a shine.

Ok not much of an update but I still like pics. lol

I disassembled the Tial wastegate and bov to verify which springs they had.

The MVS wastegate:

I ordered it with the 1 bar spring (14.5 psi) and verified that it was. So happy they didnt make a mistake.

Alright well I took a few pics of the new additions to the parts pile. I believe you guys already know that I chose to run the HX35 so some of these are aimed towards the Holset.

I bought a set of wrenches so my cool new AN fittings won't get TOO beat up while tightening:
