Here are some final pics. Finished up the undertray, although I'll probably pull it later next week to get it powdercoated.

Now get that thing broke in and tuned so we can see some pretty graphs and numbers!

Also, wicked sounding as you drove off from Pavs last night. Definitely can hear the exhaust port work as it seems a lot louder.

Thanks for the props prrex4ever. Now I just need to get a turbo blanket on that sucka. It's putting out a lot of heat!

no shit, I am so happy I put on a turbo blanket.

FD looks fantastic man!

I have about the same intake temps. 20*C being the coolest ona 65 *F day. Proper heat reduction and dissipation makes a huge difference.

Thanks Murray. Got my turbo blanket Thursday and got her installed on the car. Seems to be making a huge difference in the amount of heat in the engine bay. Great sale and quick delivery from Alamo Motorsports. Here's a pic or two of the blanket installed. Still need to attach safety wire to the two metal buttons on each side of the blanket.

It was a little nerve-racking driving the car the first 30 minutes after install since smoke from the blanket breaking in was coming out my hood vents. Good thing I read about this beforehand or I would have REALLY been concerned.

Got the undercoat powdercoated gloss black and reinstalled today. Here's a few pics of the final product uninstalled AND installed. Also a few pics of the completed car. Now, just 1500 miles of break in, and we'll be heading for the Dyno. Just passed the 600 mile mark today.

Oops... forgot the best part...

Oh snap Tim! I just found your thread. Great stuff man, one super clean FD

[RCCAZ 1]

Thanks!

OK everyone,

Installed aluminum WG hardlines over the weekend. Thanks to Glenn and Tom from AZRR for coming over to perform much of the install. Much appreciated guys! They will be selling this kit on their website www.azrotaryrockets.com, so keep an eye out for the kit coming soon!!

Anyhow, after only 900 miles my "state of the art" high temp rubber hose kit had turned to "toast." Lesson one... keep the WG lines as far away from the heat source as possible. I had initially routed my lines NEXT TO the turbo. Bad idea. Lesson two.... now, my WG lines head towards the back of the motor, up the firewall, then around the ABS to my Greddy control unit. Much, much better. Check it out!

Everyone,

Finally completed my dyno tuning on Tuesday (7/7). Check out the results here:

That looks identical to the sock that I purchased from Jay Racing. I think it was ~$50

Those WG Hardlines are beautiful. Being an overly anal retentive detail guy myself, your build is incredible. Would love to see it someday

Congrats, enjoy!

Nice job on the wastegate lines too, they are definetely a vital piece of the system and you don't want a random hole showing up out of nowhere. Those are aluminum lines yeah?

Yes, driving home from the Tuner was fun. Even at the low boost setting (12.5 psi) it pulls like a freight train! Thanks Classic.... where are you located (geographically)? I agree that they (WG lines) are a vital piece and one where going overboard is not a bad thing. Very happy that my earlier WG line burnthrough incident didn't result in anything catastrophic. Yes, the new lines are aluminum and now that they're headed away from the heat source and up the back of the engine bay I can rest easier knowing they won't melt.

I think it IS the Jay Racing sock. I'm pretty sure that's who Glen ordered the pump through. Yes, I'd love to see your ride as well. I'm always at Sevenstock over in Irvine in September. Would love to get down to Deals Gap and ride the Dragon. Hopefully some day!!

Any plans for a 99spec front end Tim? = )
