I know it looks like crap But anyways, it will work till I can get someone to do it better

 

Another if you can still see the screen from laughing so hard. I know it looks like crap but oh well..

 

Mike, you bum!! Kill the sig to something less than a freakin' novella and post the pics as imbeddments so the lazier guys can just SEE what you're talking about...





WALA!! I think the work is very sano and factory-like myself...



A proper sig, sorta...well, OK, it's a bit wordy, too!!

 

Looks fine to me.

You could always re-do it later if you wanted, after it is running.

Got pics if the intake side?

 

Wala? wtf- oh, voilá.

Nice engine bay, actually.

 

Ya see here in America (the real one...), we eschew foreign phrases and seek to incorporate Ameri-Englishicized terms to replace non-sensical words from other languages that might also require bits 'n pieces of embellishment not normally found on a regular keyboard...FYI...

 

And I see a bunch of nitwits are still downloading Mike's attachments even though they're posted in the thread so you don't have to, now...

 

Actuall every time the page is access the count goes up

 

Read under the actual attachment link and you'll see how many times that particular attachment has been clicked. As of now, it's 60 times for the first one and 40 times for the second one. When I think about it, when you initially click on the thread, one would have no idea that I imbedded his pics in my post because his damn sig is so long. It takes up the whole screen! Just natural to click, my apologies to all the nitwits for calling you nitwits...all 59 of y'all...

 

Dude that is VERY sano looking. Most people don't bother to paint the ducting they make

 

Now that looks like something Mazda would make

 

yeah it does'nt look too bad.
Now those old school hose clamps on your upper radiator hose look funny next to the new school engine.

 

OK, so I guess I am an idiot. What exactly is that piping made out of?

Mike,
how are you planning on routing the intake, both to the turbo and from the intercooler to the tb?

 

it looks way better than my ic piping so dont worry about it

That's a pretty ******** statement if I ever heard one.

 

DAMN I expected to come back and you guys have a field day on this.. LOL

The attachment download thing will still go up if you post it in a reply Still downloads it I tried in the test forum once and it works like that...

 

Damn how to you guys do those multiple quotes in one post, I have to read them all and then comment.. Well the intake side will remain a secret for a little while anyways, I waited forever to get someone I know to weld it, so I went to a friends and welded it myself Looks pretty good for the first time I used a heliarc

I think the IC piping personally looks like ****, see how hard it pushes on the rubber reducer coupling at the turbo? I do not like that at all

@peejay I didnt paint it LOL Its powder coated My freind bob has a powder coater...


@FD Racer , the old cosmo intake was cut down about 10 inches.. I cut the old part at the front most part of the intake (where the IC piping went to the cosmo orginally) then I cut way back right after the 3 TB ports colect, I cut it at a 45 degree angle offseted about 30 degress (god you gotta love band saws). I then ground it down with a die grinder so the old cosmo part at the end fit it snugly, and then I welded it

@Madman Its made outta 2 1/2 Mandrel bent tubing suitable for exhaust. I know its heavy but doesnt really matter that bad. This car is still gonna have a radio so theres more weight...

BTW: The rubber hose you see if Bellowsflex Blue label, its for marine wet exhaust on boats... Its some tough *** stuff, you can bend it in a complete 180 and it wont kink and at 200 pounds I weigh I can stand on it and it wont crush , but man was it a PAIN IN THE *** to shove onto the intercooler, my wrist still hurts from that...

 

Oh yeah, your intercooler pipes look nifty. Especially if you did it yourself good job-yo!

 

Naw, mike,, it looks ok,,man... do with, what you got.
and get that sucker running,,,what else is left to do.??

 

Suuurrre it hurts from that..

Uh-Huh. I've heard that one before.

I know you've been alone for a while.

 

See Mike! I told you it was fine! Stop being so damn critical! lol

 

The injectors, the driveshaft and the exhaust And then load up a map and hope the ****** starts

 

Looks good to me, dude! (Didn't I see aluminum foil on a thread earlier?). Now, Mike, you may 'splain to me just what the heck its for and what you expect performance wise. A wise man once said "The only stupid question is the one that was not asked", so I'm askin'!
