the turbo was broken apart to clean and paint and I found the exhaust side was cracked inside.. (awaiting a new one)

still waiting for a clutch kit and flywheel

tonight I will paint the compressor housing (gunmetal)
tonight I will paint the lower fuel rail (red)

looks very nice, make sure you take a video of the start up!

SpooledupRacing 03-14-2008 10:56 AM

OH will do.

SpooledupRacing 03-23-2008 10:18 AM

nothing really new to update.. I did however buy my ACT lightweight flywheel yesterday...

SpooledupRacing 03-24-2008 01:54 PM

Well ACT's website is wrong.. the flywheel I bought will NOT work on my car so now I am out the time and money in order to get the flywheel and resell it then buy a new one to get the engine installed!!!

this is why I HATE ACT!!!!
