Finally got pics of the S5

i bought the s5 and havent had a camera, now i got one... sorta, the engine bay pics arent really how it looks i replaced the duct tape rubber with silicone and t-bolt clamps... but ill get some of those pics later


no rust besides back right quarter where there is a dent at the wheel well, and the front left fender where there is a dent by the bumper other than that its pretty much perfect

the interior is amazing, perfect leather seats, and not one tear, carpet is perfect not a stain or rip anywhere. the only thing is im missing the little radio area

s4 turbocharger on my NA streetport

rubbers have been replaced with silicone, u will notice a litte brown round thing behind the piping by the throttle body, its a very sleeper, but sweet sounding SAAB bov

i'd like to see those, b/c the lines you have coming out of the turbo are scaring me too. other than that... very nice clean car. hard to come by a black leather interior. i've got white on black and i love it!! nice.

its only got 5k on the rebuild and streetport, the turbo, im kinda unsure of how many miles on that thing, but it still hauls *** and im happy.

yea most the lines on this car scare the **** outa me, ive replaced the intercooler piping couplers and stuff, now i just gotta replace that worn out rubber on the turbo, that should be done by saturday, and ill post some more pics.

ill get a better shot of the interior for ya too, its in amazing shape... the only thing im really bugged about with this car is the moonroof only goes back like 2 inches, and thats if ur helping it along the way

I'm really sorry, as I'm sure it hauls *** and stuff, but, that looks to be one of the most ghetto rides I've ever seen. =O

Just a question. Why did you go the turbocharged way instead of converting it?

AMEN pimpdaddy,black on black(plus black is one of the best paints mazda had). after i finish college at UTI, im gunna swap in a TII i think, something that is easier to get advice on, since im still relatively new to rotarys, its kinda hard to diagnose a totally custom job if your having problems

you need to duct that radiator and intercooler, and you neet to put a shroud on that fan. just make sure you dont boost spike it with that shitty s4 turbo.
