Alright update time!!!
First, the bad/annoying. I received my boost gauge and it turns out the Garagistic gauge pod doesn't play nicely with said gauge. Here it is maxed out on depth. Not entirely sure what I'm going to do. Hoping I can cut the carpet underneath and get enough clearance out of that to get it to sit flush. We'll see.
Now the fun stuff!
Had a couple friends flowing in and out of my house yesterday and we made some major progress. Manifold, turbo, intercooler, and charge piping are all on. I'm impressed with this kit so far. It's pretty complete and Kameron's support has been awesome. We've been going back and forth on Facebook Messenger pretty constantly and it's been so helpful.
Anyways, pictures!
Peekaboo
Got some fun exhaust goodies too. Vibrant Ultra Quiet resonator and Streetpower muffler. Both in 3". Car is going to get a high flow cat as well. I'm in California so this whole thing needs to be rather covert. That should keep the exhaust pretty quiet. Still not sure how I'm going to hide the nice "PSSHHHHH" from a blowoff valve....
Still to do:
- Finish running oil lines (need the oil filter stud that threads into the block from an eta to install oil filter relocation kit)
- Replace turbo mockup bolts with copper
- Find longer or extend coil wiring so it can be relocated
- Run vacuum line to MS2 for boost monitoring
- Run vacuum line for wastegate solenoid
- Run oil catch can lines
- Turbo blanket
- Intake elbow & filter
- Exhaust
