Orange SHO going TURBO!

^^^ i put that much intercooler and a reasonable amout of piping on a 3g eclipse / 4g64 setup. the car used a paltry 14b turbo @ 9psi, and boost still hit like a mother fawker

drove just like a 1g talon w/ a stock SMIC on 9psi .... just had extra TQ

Kool Thats what I read at first but then your pipe layout in the above picture threw me way off. BTW, Why are you going with an intercooler like that? That makes for way too much piping.

It not alot of piping it may seem like it but it really isnt. i actually still have to cut it to accommodate the small pipe for the blow off valve.

as soon as you cut into that plastic bumper it will become worthless in a collision. ****, its ALREADY mostly worthless in a collision

i broke somedude's bumper the day i stood on it to tie the hood up out of the way

if you realy want a bumper on the car, have one bent out of 1 1/2 steel tubing, and tuck it up against the cover

That's crazy, on my blue '92 we used the bumper as a step to climb into the engine compartment to do the body work. I'm around 230lbs and there wasn't the slightest noise.

you were there. either we were tieing the hood up, or maybe we were trying to settle the springs after the suspension was out ?

i donno, but i know i stood up on it, and we could hear it popping, and you told me to get off

Hotrodkid: still breaking shit after 29 years.

T-minus 38 days till 28 years (4th of july)

edit: speaking of which, its time to go break shit on the 240sx.... swappy swap time ! hopefully soon the car will be sitting on jackstands with no engine, tranny, front frame rails or front suspension left in the car
