its right inline with the front of the car i figured the bumper would go back on .its right under where the bump stops are for the hood

 

do u still have the fiberglass bumper on or did u remove that?

 

ok it looks like u removed the fiberglass bumper and the mounts for it so u will just be putting the bumper cover over it

 

oh yeah its to big for the fiberglass bump and stuff

 

lol ok...

 

i think thats theres only 1 intercooler that actaully dosent require removing the fiberglass bumper

 

gottcha
as long as I can get it on I will be happy

 

I painted the uim all gunmetal...

I also mounted the intercooler today







Sorry for the big pic.

 

Well here is what I have got accomplished today



I have the holes cut so the pipes are going into the engine bay I just need to get things snugged up and clamped down and a couple pipes cut and it will be on...

first I need a higgi/greddy elbow another thing I forgot last minute

taken with cell phone sorry for the big pic

 

looks goo so far man. i may need ur help to do mine haha. what did u use to hold up the core?

 

it came with a couple brackets that I bent into place well rx7tuner bent into place, and we bolted it up today and put the pipes in..

 

ok here are some I got from late tonight... I got the holes cut, the pipes run into the engine bay now I just need a couple couplers, and the higgi/greddy elbow









Yes the car is on an angle..

OK what do u think?

 

looks good did u actually manage to get the couplers to fit over the intercooler? man i tried and tried

 

nope I bought 2 new ones. 3" to 2.5" couplers 5.00 each

 

heck with that monster on the front u shouldnt even run a front facia hahaha

 

and your question about the harness. its all plug and play unless u want to run emmisons and cruse controle. and u have to change 1 wire to get the actuator on the twin scroll to open if u are using the stock s4 turbo. but most people just leave it alone and dont worry about it because it only makes u spool alittle slower but nothing noticable really

 

no emissions, no twin scroll, no cruse

the one thing I did notice is the T2 tps looks like a 3 wire where the n/a tps I think was a 2 wire.. I cant find a 3 wire connector on my harness

 

did u move coolant resovoir?

s4 turbo/na tps shoukd be the same if i remember?

 

nope the coolant res has always been on the drivers fender.. I think its an 86' thing.. because everyone asks me that..

I have to find that 3 wire connector on my harness then because I cant find it lol

EDIT
Ok I looked at my old tps I sold and it was a 3 prong also... now I have to find that 3 prong connector on my harness hummm

 

lol its like a yellowish white conector haha. i think its on the same harness as air intake and coolant temp?

yea. u think the coolant bottle will be in the way of the fmic if it was located in other year position?

 

no because the res sites between the radiator supper and bumper support.. this sits outside of it all...

I will look for that connector today!

 

looks good spooled , that gunmetal looks awsome

 

Thx I appreciate it really..

 

Ok no pictures today (atleast not now)

I have done the following

turbo ECU installed
Walbro installed
TPS wires lengthened


I need 2 couplers
1 banjo bolt
and the higgi/greddy elbow and I can get the car ready to start

 

Hey i just spent a few hours reading through your build up and it looks good. I'm just south of Flint, MI. I'm not sure where Comstock is. But, I just about where you are. I'm working on getting mine started.

I like that FMIC tho.
