so now we have haltech e8 instead of e6k, 3/8 fuel feed, fpr, legit piping, rew manifold, old school ssr gp01 wheels, ls1 coils set for direct fire, blah blah blah, things have changed, my friend emilio did all the work.
Wouldn't recommend compression fittings on brake lines, they'll most likely work but they are advised against.
That turbo is awesome, 500 bucks you definitely can't go wrong for a turbo that size.

Good, I know you mentioned your family has a hydraulic shop or somethin, so no doubt you know hydraulics. I've seen people use compression fitting before and had them leak, and at bad times might I add.
BTW those wheels make the vert look so much better.

Chris(HKP) sold me the car for a few years. I tore it all apart and redid everything, only thing that stayed the same was the Intercooler, Turbo, Manifold and Downpipe. The car has new intercooler piping, new UIM, new ECU and wiring. New fuel system from gas tank to rails, re did the brake line setup. The list goes on.
It is now Chris' again and I took over another one of his old projects. THE LAST PROJECT AT THAT! It's alot of work...
