i work at a car audio/performance shop in chatham which is about an hour from london. im having it trailered to windsor to get tuned once i get the rest of the funds together for that. this was the first time working with metal, im used to wood from building speaker boxes and such. i do liek steel better now though. glad to see ppl liek the looks of this setup beacuse im going to be selling it in the fall to make a all stainless setup with equal length manifold. if i see 200WHP illbe happy. that number should be easily obtained though.

200 will be easily atained with that setup.
Good work dood B)

Done. - bigman - 04-23-2007
could be a possibilty man. 3 hours is quite a drive for food. mind you im a fat s*** so itll prolly be happenin. im hoping to get to the dyno day im may but i NEED to come up with the funds to get the car to the tuner.
Done. - ZX5focused - 04-23-2007
making the dyno day would be awesome...ill cruise up with you if ya want, well behind you anyways :lol:
Done. - ANTHONYD - 04-23-2007

ohhh yea that is what i like to see, diy turbo builds,
looks great man, you did a good job,
i love this kind of stuff, diy is the s***.
finally there are more and more people comming around and realizing that its real easy to do just take a little bit of fabrication skills.
once again nice work.

ya its been a plan of mine for years but i just now have the money to do it. BBQ is all up to the old lady guys. gotta please her first.if shes down to go ill come. 3 hours is just a bit much for me is all. saving to buy a house, turboing my car and paying taxes are pretty high on the to do list. thanks for all the good comments to guys. BTW DIY is a BITCH. i lost countless hours of sleep stressing over the slightest things. maybe its just me, i ono.

another question should i run my 2.25" or build a 3" with res and turn down before i tune it. any input would be great. also tryin to keep noise down a bit so if i need a cat to keep it down ill do it but im also trying to keep costs down as well. i have the piping just need the res. thanks.
Done. - Flofocus - 04-25-2007
min Id go with your setup is 2.5, 3" would be ideal B)
Done. - bigman - 04-25-2007
i have a 2.25 not 2.5. im thiknin of building a 3" turndown from the DP to a res then turn it down before the bend at the tank. question is will it be worth the added noise.
