Looking like its gonna be a pretty good build. What turbo?

[cl1ckclack]

looks good bro! get too assembling!

[laserspeeddemon]

What are the springs on the 02 housing for?

[Colt4G63 also]

Oww! Your new cams are laying on the concrete!

[WES_393]

Looks like a good start!

Two questions for you though: What's the part number for the K&N filter? I'm fairly certain the part number that comes up at my work is for the 420a . And what's the part number for the B&M oil cooler?

[93_tsi_fwd]

Looking good mike. What are your goals for the car?

That knn air filter is for 1g/vr4 and the 420a is a rectangle shape

Seeing all of those nice brand new parts has me drooling. Nice build

2nd picture.

Springs on what appears to be a external wastegate connecting to a exhaust piping that has a 2 bolt flange on the bottom (I thought the flange connected to the down pipe which lead me to believe it was an O2 housing of sorts).

[Lofty]

Did you put this in the hangout on purpose or....

[PieEyedPiper]

^^ ha!

Can't wait for this! I've been loving your car for ages.

[buhay6]

Ahh ok yeah man that pic was taken when my motor was in the showroom of the shop that built it for me. They had that setup on there for display purposes.

Sorry, I meant oil filter. Should have been more clear.

Still curious about the B&M cooler as well.

STM OIL COOLER KIT | 90-99 DSM




got another piece to add to the build.


FP 4inch intake non recirculated, with massive K&N filter and a miracle reducer coupler that allows that huge intake to fit onto my evo III big 16g =)

[GSX_TC1]

got a few new parts for the build

Coil On Plug setup, and some FIC 1050cc's

[Mishimoto]

Subscribed and excited to see more!

Still looking awesome! Though, if I were honest, I'm seriously hating on that reducer/intake setup.
