i finally got all of the stock turbo system out of the car
this one motherf*#king down pipe nut that refused to let go...took me 2 hours of trying to be a proper mechanic till i said screw it and got the grinder out and went to town on it
made me feel a lot better to say the least
so Monday begins fab work!!
well the ISS Forged fabricator will be doing the fabbing
i'll be installing the complete fuel system into the car
here are the pics from today
first one is my battle victory against that goddamn down pipe nut

lol .... more than one way to skin a cat. Thats hilarious though.. because I have seen myself do the exact same thing in certain situations. It's almost like I look left and right to make sure no one is looking before I do such things.. but as long as it gets done.. who cares how haha
