hope you guys enjoy, the car has came along way in the last year and a half and still has a very long ways to go!
 
Figure it out already damn it. Been waiting to see what you guys can pull out of it on the portfueler/MSD setup.
 
Damn it, LOL. So it was squiggly as what, your alignment was off or what? Guess I'm not quite understanding.

Ya tire rod's, ball joints, an control were all shot so those all were replaced an tried tuning again this weekend an ran into another problem, for some reason its cutting spark once it gets into boost, so trying to get that figured out then trying again,
 
that throttle body is sharp man where did you get it? i just bought a 20g for my 10.5 comp motor and will be going down the road your on. did you get the intercooler with inlets on both sides or one on each side? im building around my turbo so im trying to find the best intercooler/piping and route to go. can you put more pictures up of your engine bay with details (problems or easier ways) on the turbo set up. thanks

Intercooller is a hahn fmic, defintly nice have the inlets on the driver side works alot better with the 420a, an the throttle body came from modern perfomance its a 60mm an has great throttle response! Ill try to get some bay pics up sometime!
 
Details Watson! Then turbo took a poop, that doesn't just happen LOL. Do you know what happened?

Unsure exactly what happened but the seal's are shot, my intercooler piping is completely drenched in oil :barf:
but anyways first thing in the morning it will be getting sent of to jusmx41 on here to get rebuilt, an while i have the downtime decided im going to add some color the valve cover, an get a new radiator cap an clean up some things a little more, :thumb:
 
Nice, also good choice on sending your turbo to justin, heard nothing but good things. I take it you never got a chance to get her on the dyno before you messed up your turbo?

still havent been on the dyno, just been doing some street tuning with the help of syn customs, an ya everyone said to go to justin, im just hoping it doesnt take to awfuly long to get it back from being rebuilt :hmm:
 
Nice set up bro I really dig the gold on that. What else are you going to paint? And what was the biggest set back or unexpected issues you ran into? I'm running 10.5 comp and just bought a 20g to get going. Slo2gen has been my inspiration seeing everything he has done. Hope to see your numbers soon. Good luck

biggest set back for me is running the hahn portfueler, if you have the chance you should defintly go megasquirt,
