I finally caught up with the 90's and got a digital camera. I have created a folder for you to all laugh at my cobbled together car.

I'm not the most computer literate, I could not find the name feature for the folder.

hey dude... its not the 90s anymore Your car looks fine to me... better than mine!

I wouldn't laugh at your cobbled together car.. it bears a striking resemblance to my cobbled together car ..

 

Interesting place to mount your gauges.. Why didn't I think of that?.. Been looking all over the damn car trying to find a clean place to mount them..

I have them in the same place on my Galant vr4. I paid less than 30 for both.........The gauges in my galant were more $ than I have in this whole car, boy if I could start that project over again.

Lucky you.. I can't find any stores around here that even carry a boost gauge.. I am going to have to order one online.. I have the same temp gauge you do.. was hoping to be able to just walk in and buy a matching boost gauge

Yeah, I just happened to look through the "bargin" bin at my local auto parts store and found one for $14.99

I like the gauges, too.

hey, ease up.. sometimes i feel like i'm still catching up with the 90s too

Nice car, but how does air get to the intercooler????

 

Mark,

I was about to ask that!

Awesome I need to take notes on that intercooler I want to do a front mount in my XT turbo . Did you just use radiator hose and PVC for the tubing? Did you seal it in anyway?

 

Edit: on second look it seems like you used just PVC. Is that about the only option or just the cheapest one?

I have not chosen a scoop as of yet.... I like to call it my little heat sink, all joking aside It does at speed have enough air moving across it to feel the difference after a hard drive between pre and post pipes.

 

 

Pvc is by far the cheapest route it does not flow nearly as well as mandrels but what are you going to do for <$6?
