Needless to say I'm going to repair the grounds by cutting into the harness and resoldering anything that's loose or corroded.
You get enough sleep last night?

I WAS THERE. :p

That turbo, my friends, is big enough to run the car BY ITSELF WITH NO ENGINE

It's a bit big for my purposes


. . . well, wait, theoretically, a higher compression ratio should make that spool faster . . . get some S5 N/A rotors in there . . .

Sorry, I forgot, you want what pipe?

Also, I have no good waterpumps. (well, that I would trust, anyway)

well jegs got them to me Friday night. Yes in one day. Thats sweet.

Anyways I am happy with these mufflers and their straight thru design. However I did not get the stainless steel 4 inch 4 feet straights I got the aluminumized ones and I might ship them back for the stainless ones. They just seem very thin. Now I am getting the mandrel bends from a online resource for my downpipe and I will drop some pics of those when I get them. A full 4 inch mandrel bent turbo back exhaust system should help spool at little. I am shooting for 15lbs at 3000 rpm

Mine's been sitting for four years. Nothing's gonna break.

The belts are rotten, but they were crap when I had the car anyhow...

And the tires that were new when I parked it have flat spots in em. Easily solved by a nice burnout. Too bad they won't fit the car when I'm done.

They shall go on my Civic.

Still, it'd be a good idea to start and warm it up once a week. Maybe drive it up and down the street once or twice.
