lets see the pic's lol, no test drive yet?

No some of the stupid lines didnt really go which we thought.. The oil line didnt snug quite up and we needed a new coolant line which we tryed to make do with another line but it didnt work.

Plus some of the Ic pipes didnt really fit up but i made it work.. So Josh if it blows off blame it on me.. ill come fix it haha.

Was a good day tho.. good meetin new faces.

first of all, a torque wrench isnt a BAD idea, its just not really needed on this job.

2, you don't need to break in a new turbo, just make sure nothing leaks and the oil and coolant are clean.  Maybe the 1st or second time you boost it take it easy but after that all bets are off  :D

There was heated argument as to whether a LHD V6 Twin turbo Galant VR4 existed. But I guess it wasn't so memorable because we all know who's right ma brotha. 8)

Awe yeah we got that motherfuckin slut ROARINNNN! Josh n I cutom Fabed a copper oil line line.. its actually pretty mint. It leads from the oil filter to the Banjo fitting on the turbo. After goin thru the first SSbraided line which crapped out on us yesterday we hit up our last option..........HOME DEPOT.. had to come up with an idea quick as it was gettin late and the gf's... well yeah they were gettin quite moody because we had promised them we would spend time with them. But instead we spent it with Josh's baby (his car)

Fuck ya custom line from home depot! BUT when I punched it hard went to like 18 psi and blew the lower intercooler pipe off. Had to crawl home. Going to be fixing her up. Its going to be great.  Noticed it takes a bit longer to get boost. but the turbo is so much more powerful! Pics and vids tonight.
