Yeah, shutup kid.
I'm in the process, almost finished. Just need to do the turbo oil feed/return lines and put on the new furl pump and pressure regulator. Then I get to finally drive it

When I win the lottery is when I build my turbo FB...... oops I don't play the lottery. I always thought of the lottery as tax on stupidity.

I'm going with a stock S4 TII with S5 turbo. Hoping by the end of the year to be installed and running.
This week getting the front cover drilled out for a 5/8 straight thread to -10 flare fitting for the turbo oil drain.
Got a WRX hood scoop yesterday, gonna look a lot better than the offset TII hood scoop.
Engine going in for a Kevin Landers rebuild soon.
Still collecting lots of parts and new stuff.
Still waiting for them dam gauge pods to be made up.
Can't wait for the extra power--yea.

yeah but the problem is the cost is never what you think its going to be and it allways takes way longer than you thought. I didnt even go turbo and it took me allmost 8 months to do my 13b swap.
The real problem is you start looking at things like, "well the engine is out anyway, I might as well get a centerforce clutch in there too", etc.

Yeah, shutup kid.
That $1000 is including a Dual Friction 6puck clutch with racing pressure plate I have nothing left to buy, just finishing up and waiting for a couple parts to come that have already been ordered.
I'm with you on the time thing, I havn't had my car together all summer. Luckily I've had another car to drive, but it sucks not having my 7 running.

I'm considering tinkering with a turbo set-up of some sort. I wouldn't take out my motor though. It's just too low of milage and running to good to toss for another one, so I would rather work with this one, having 15k miles on it and all....
