Post the completed manifold picture later today after the server update!
Well the manifold has been completed. I go pick up the car Wednesday. Then I need to make some oil lines and swap out cams at some point. I can't wait. Should be running by next weekend.

So I just got back home with the car.
She needs a couple things before it will fire up but I can be patient.
Anyways here are some pics...

I am beyond thrilled with the outcome so far. Just a few things need to be cleaned up and addressed before she's street ready.
Thanks for looking.
Lmk what you think.

Took the trans back out of the car. Prior to tear down and purchase of the turbo components I had issues getting the car into 5/6 gears. Figured it was a synchro issue.
Turns out the hub was broken at all 3 channels where the synchro mates to the hub. It messed up both synchros pretty bad. You can see a good synchro vs the bad in the pictures below.
Onto the pics.
Enjoy....

Your messy..... LOL
Glad to see you're getting closer!!!
Looks slow noob
So anyways.... I rewrapped the manifold and dump tube and finished wrapping the downpipe with DEI titanium wrap. Love that stuff.
I had one helluva time bolting the manifold to the head...
The guy who built it ran 2 m10x1.5 bolts in it. They are supposed to be 10x1.25 bolts.
I went to pepboys and bought their manifold bolt kit since I needed to install studs. One I got the studs in I found out half the holes didn't line up to the flange 100% so I went out and bought some bits for my dremel. Got well aquatinted with them for a while and finally got it on about 1am.
Here's some pics.

That's where I left off last night. Tonight, I hope to get the gate on and positioned right, the boost controller lines and boost controller mounted, and lines ran. The turbo bolted tight, oil feed line ran, intercooler piping on, and water pump hooked back up..... That's a long list of stuff for only a couple hour window. We shall see what gets done.
Still need to relocate battery, and finish moving fuse box.

Got the oil line and filter in.

Had to tighten the back lower turbo bolt with a special Allen key. One that I made myself. 5/16 was the right size but was retarded tight. And working blind wasn't helping. So I had to shave it down some to fit better. Also the exhaust flange was in the way for a traditional length Allen key or socket. So I had to cut one down.

I ordered 2 sets of t bolt clamps so far and neither worked the best. I shouldn't have cheaper out but I'm not paying attention 19 dollars per clamp from kseriesparts. So I took some 3.5" clamps and cut this area down some to allow more threads to show initially to get it started.

Now they should fit well.
Got the turbo and center cartridge installed once the turbo to manifold bolts were tight.

So I got the gate in last night. Put a 4lb spring in it was told I can ramp that up a lot with the pmw booster and 4port solenoid by vitViper so I am anxious to see if it can hold near 4lbs. I have a feeling 6-8 is going to be the lowest it can hold.
Anyways... I also installed the turbo blanket, which btw is a lot of fun with the location of my turbo. Lol
Not a whole lot done last night, but it's progress.

Hope to get my oil pan back and get it on tonight along with the return line. Also going to put the water pump setup together and sealed up.

So I got the vacuum lines hooked up last night. And mounted the boost controller. Can't wait to fire it up soon.
Heat wrap covering all lines and wires of course.

That's all for last night. Trying to figure out how to route this long ass fucking throttle cable. Stupid ass Acura.
The guys taking for fucking ever on my oil pan so I can't throw the subframe back up there and situate the exhaust Ect.

Haha I swore more in person in the garage messing with the car.
And he's welding the return line fitting on. I got it back and installed. I need to redo the hot side intercooler pipe as it has a shitty angle for a coupler off the turbo. So that's getting fixed after World Cup Finals. That's when the shop will have time.

Hopefully your test went well!!
Petey Streets! Long time man. Test? What kinda test, a compression test? I hope that went well too!
If they ask where the Declaration of Independence was signed, just say at the bottom. Good luck brother!
Lmfaooo. I will make sure that is the answer. Lol
Wassup man. Long time indeed. Everything good for you?
Test is an Aptitude test for getting into a local union. I test on Thursday so wish me luck.
Test is on Thursday wish me luck! And thank you
[QUOTE=dkpr87;31646]Same here man! Updates! Updates! Updates!
I have put the car on a complete stop while I spent the last couple weeks studying for this test. After the test I will continue with the car and get it knocked out.
Unfortunately I just can't spend the time on the car right now.

Now that my testing is over with I've got time to get back to the car. Here's a pic of gold on the rad. That's all the wrap I'll be applying now. May remove the bit on the manifold. I'm undecided. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/11...1511b4e289.jpg
Waiting on the shop to get back to me about getting the car up there for modification of the intercooler piping, and make the battery relocation tray and then she should be good to tune and roll out.

:rotfl: @ the one spot of gold wrap on the manifold hahahaha. I feel like I know your thought process with that. "This won't do anything realistically, but it's more gold to put down, and that's doing something. ::lays gold wrap::
::takes pic::
:iorun:
So she's finally back on all 4's tonight.
Next week I'll have it in the shop for a few things to get her done then cruisin time. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/11...f16e5e679b.jpg

So a couple days ago now I started her up for the first time turbo'd. What an amazing time. I am in love with the sidewinder sound and to my surprise the car is sooooooo quiet. Even on a cold start she's much quieter than my car was at operating temperature with the blower.
Can't wait to finish the fmic piping and mount the battery. Then I finally get to take her on the road.
Anyways. Here's some video of it. More to follow soon.
