Finally got around to completing the last piece of the puzzle. A full 3inch mandrel bent exhaust with a split 2inch pipe off the S5 turbo for the wastegate. After checking the settings on the Microtech it started up first go. Combined with the large extend port it sounds amazing.

 

very nice as usual from the aussi!!!

 

Sweet looking setup, but your steering wheel is on the wrong side. It's so nice when they fire up the first time after all the work that's gone into them.

 

noice! Can't wait until I can post pix of my car.

 

Looks great.

Is the plenum and linlet painted or powder coated? It came up a treat.

 

Someday I will have a turbo 1st gen...

They're powder coated.

 

Very nice and clean setup! nice fender flares too where does someone get some?

 

NO 18's!!!!like usual from Down Under, nice!!!

 

looks amazing! great job. hope someday i can get a 13b in my car.

 

Nice!

 

Revhed ~

what can i say? it's about damn time!!!

seriously though, it's beautiful, man. should i hold my breath for video (or at least sound)?

200 on the speedo? only wish it was MPH ... hehe!

enjoy it now, you've waited long enough. you deserve it.

Wow, looks fantastic!

 

Looking good, I hope my upcoming 13bt swap comes out as cleanly...

 

Props man! She looks beautiful!!

 

Nice, nice, nice... Any more info/pics on that exhaust? Are you using the stock wastegate but with a seperate pipe? How's that done?

 

who has the full write up on this swap into a gsl 1st gen?

 

Instead of having one downpipe it has a 3" pipe for the turbine and a 2" pipe for the wastegate with a splitter inside the housing to keep exhaust flow seperate. Flows a lot better than having the wasegate gasses slam into a plate like the standard setup.

 

Thanks man. I'll try to get some footage once the engine's run in and dynoed. A 200mph speedo would be nice.

Drove it around a bit yesterday. The water pump was leaking like crazy so I put a new one in and there's a small leak from the oil cooler. Other then that it didn't miss a beat.

My first impressions on the locked diff are positive. It chirps a bit while parking but otherwise it drives and feels like a normal diff.

 

wow sweet ride. wat kinda fender flares are those btw?

 

I wish I knew. They were on the car when I bought it.

 

Aussies have all the fun.

 

WOW!!! Thats is VERY NICE!! would be curious of some exhaust shots for the wastegate setup.

 

Looks beautiful!

- What have you done for the fuel setup?

 

Looking good
