im back in an FC!!

[88turboii]

so ive made some progress. i ended up using factory FD rods since turblowns dont fit and didnt feel like cutting them down. engine is in, and just running a 60-1 hybrid S5 turbo for now. The brakes, exhaust, engine harness, haltech, and fuel system are installed. I ditched the haltech harness relays and used the factory stuff for a clean install. I got it started and idling reasonably well on the ID2000's.. injector PW is about 1.1ms at idle

Also started on the v-mount. i cut out a bunch of crap and welded in a new crossbeam, to which the top of the radiator mounts. the bottom of the radiator is supported on the sides by two tabs welded onto the frame rails







i havent decided where to mount the oil cooler. it will either be sandwiched by the radiator and intercooler (c-mount? lol), or just mount it in front of radiator in the middle of the "V"
