Looks great otherwise. Good luck on the build up


I hate to bring a thread back, but I feel that it would be good to address this. For the record, in the many years that we have been selling these lines we have had hardly any problems with them over the hundreds of them we have sold.

The oil cooler lines he has, and that everyone will have from about a year ago on or so, are the new design. I'm sure everyone remembers when we were out of Oil Cooler lines for about 6 months straight. We used to have our lines manufactured by the same people that did the lines for Mazdatrix. You'll notice that they don't sell them anymore either. The quality of the lines was getting flaky and we decided to stop selling those. It took almost 8 months to find another manufacturer who would make the lines to our specifications. Mazdatrix sells new lines which have AN fittings on them, and we retained the banjo fittings on the lines so you don't have to retrofit anything onto your block or oil cooler to get these to work.

These new lines have been pressure tested up to 700psi with no leaks, so no worries about them falling apart

I would not have purchased your product if I did not have faith in your company. I am only going with the best for my build. Even if there were an issue with one of your products I am sure that you would stand behind it. Keep up the good work!

Things have been kind of slow lately with my project, but have no fear. It is getting close! I should have some new pics to post this week of the ports and of the assembly of my motor.

Very nice NMJ87T2 it looks like its going to be a bad *** motor once it's all done.
Quick question what kind of FMIC and IC piping are you using?
Also If you dont mind I would like to know how much did you pay for the Koyo radiator and the Black Magic Fan? Where do you recommend that I buy the radiator and Black Magic fan for my new S5 Turbo-II? Thank you

I bought the e-fan off of ebay!! It was from an individual so I paid next to nothing for it. The intercooler core was purchased from a forum member. The intercooler piping was purchased from ebay as well. from etdmotors. It is 2mm thick and is quality material as well. I have already welded some of it and had no issues.

Her are some pics of the exhaust manifold during construction. It is similar to the HKS manifold, but will flow much better and weigh much less!!

No, it is an S4 car. I am using the S4 front cover, rotors, and intermediate iron. The housings are S5 as well as the rear and front irons. I searched and finally found the S5 rear iron that has the same casting as the 13B-RE for added strength. It will be amazing to finally have this motor in the car!! Thanks for the props. I hope your project goes great like mine has been.

Absolutely, here shortly there are going to be quite a few nice (and quick) 7's in the area. There are too many to count as of right now.

those ultra light 2's look pretty clean. cant wait to see the difference between the leds and the regular light.

Manifold is coming along I see. Why not push the turbo a bit farther from the motor? Is there going to be something in the way?

I'll have to call you tomorrow to come see your ride this week... laters
