Buildup: 91 Vert, A-spec 500R + lots more.
I think it would only be right for Juiceh to post pics of his car indeed if he has not totaled drunk driving after a night out with the girls doing lines of coke off each others *** whilst smashing.
We can dispel this horrid rumor right here and now..........

Seriously! We need pic of the car. Such an epic build but I feel jipped! Now hearing this that the car was totalled? What a ******* waste

Your sarcasm detector needs a recalibration, sir!
Don't have any recent pics. I do have one with the IC piping complete. Maaaaybe I'll post that later tonight. I think my couplerless setup will give some folks some mega-wood.

God damn already post some pics and/or an update.
Reading that you totaled it made me sick to my stomach until I read along further.
Maybe I'll show you a pic of my project in return

seriously though I feel like an *** now. I heard Juiceh was done with this car and was just holding out on giving us finished pics. I heard he was driving the car all over the place.
Seriously dragging us through years of a thread to see our wet dreams all come true and not show it finished would be fucked up. But since you still aren't done then I feel the *** for hassling you.

There is an excessive amount of male *** in the past few posts. Little disturbing.
I'd definitely like to see some pics. I don't love EVERYTHING done, but I like a lot of the innovative little ideas used, and it's definitely a quality build. Looking forward to seeing what else you've come up with.

Should flow nicely!
Couple things being redone at the moment. The coolant neck is being redone with one piece to match the IC piping curves and give a cleaner look. The turbo is also being changed. Sean says my current 500R turbo makes me "Happy", but the change will make me "Very Happy!"
You like it and you know it!
I guess with all the money into this build you can't afford a $90 digital camera, hey?
Hahah, kidding, IC setup looks mmmmmmmm.
If you don't miond me asking, how far does the vent on the Panspeed hood drop down? I need to make sure it will fiot my Vmount setup!

Was my iPhone camera. Didn't have my good camera with me at the time. The lighting was also sucky. That was a flashlight on the engine bay.
I don't recall how far it drops down. I'll take some measurements when I can. I think its like a 2-3 inch drop.

Nope. Hot side has the same clamp. They are Hargett Precision Quick Disconnect Clamps. Sean knows a guy that uses these on his tractor pull rig at ~150-200psi, no problems.
They will be eventually. I want to hard coat anodize the cold side & intercooler black(enhances heat dissipation) then ceramic coat the cold side black(reject heat from getting back in). Sean told me not to anodize the comp housing and the attached piping though since the comp housing is cast and cast AL tends to turn out like *** when anodized. So that bit will probably be ceramic coated to look nicer. Anodizers around here are kinda **** about what they will anodize. They all complain about not having enough work to do, yet when you take them something simple like say AL wheel center caps to anodize they will turn you away. Very bizarre... Haven't taken my IC to an anodizer yet though but that is what I've been told about multiple anodizers in the area.
Yup, piping is welded to the greddy comp tube.
