The turbo fits the manifold but the manifold doesnt fit the downpipe. good thing i got that extra flange. I did an approximate clock on the turbo and test fitted the turbo and wastegate to the manifold. Everything looks good although i need to find some longer downpipe bolts tomorrow at the hardware store, and I need to find a 5 bolt gasket that fits. I cant wait to get this shit on

[ActiveAero]

Awesome. Keep us non AU folks updated.

ok i understand the 3 hours for the oil pan cause those are a bitch! buuuut... why 3 hours on the exhaust???? do you suck cock or something??? hehe j/k but seriously why 3 hr.?

[Jess]

Good question. i have no idea why i said 3hr for that. shouldnt take more than an hour or so. The oil pan is going to involve removing some crap, undoing some motor mounts and jacking up the motor :(

[Jon|Hazan]

i will be there!

[Frosty_DUB]

i will try to swing by too.

[TheGuyWithTheMustang]

I'll come by sometime tomorrow. Me and Whitney have to go to montgomery to pick up the accord for my new daily commute to monkey town. We'll come by after that. Hope everything goes smooth.

[Matt Harris]

I'll definitely swing by and laugh at you guys for a while. :D

:lol: thats a given

I heard it today as I was walking back to C zone. I kinda looked around wondering where that turbo sound came from, and guessed it was coming from one of those big trucks I happened to see on the road (cause it sounded just like a big 18 wheeler). Then, I saw Jess, got his attention while he was stopped in traffic, and asked him to rev it up again. All I heard was turbo. Definately sounds good, but a big ole exhaust would just add to it. 8) :twisted:

[Jess]

240 is in the shop getting exhaust and IC piping

[maxpsi]

What diameter exhaust did you choose?

[Jess]

Im giving her all 3 inches of my good stuff.

Downpipe is 2.5
Flex-pipe (to save the mani from too much stress)
3" exhaust
3" muffler
3" mini bagel pizza

[maxpsi]

Just like me! Can we be friends now? :lol: 8)

[Jess]

car wont be done till tomorrow, though im gonna try to take it to the meet tonite if the IC piping is done

[TheGuyWithTheMustang]

Im giving her all 3 inches of my good stuff...
