Yea it will go down some i hope. I def need coilovers thought.:p

Anyways i ordered some random stuff i need for the intercooler pipeing..... couplers, aluminum elbow to weld to compressor housing, bov flange, Q45 throttle body. So that will take care of all the piping/etc.

Also my income return finally arived, so now i can pay Dogbox, And get my trans back soon. Also got a fidenza flywheel, and shopping around for an act 2900 and 6- puck. AND NO IM NOT GETTING A TWIN DISK! Im too poor for that shit! :p Dont ferget its a backyard budget build!:D
 
LOL budget goes out the window when your getting a dogbox. BUt i guess theres no other way to really get that power to the ground reliably. Cant wait for finished results bro.

Hes not getting a DOG engagement box hes getting a dogbox racing built trans. Which gives you the same upgrades as other companies, but dosent ream out your asshole, plus there local to us.
 
Where did you get the IC piping? Did you just buy aluminum 6061 from some surplus online store or did you buy if from a specific shop?

I'm trying to do all my piping for under 120$ including 3 sets of 3 inch v bands.

Ok so im just waiting on my trans to get done, Im going with 2nd, 3rd, 4th Double syncros and a welded center diff. Cant wait to get it back!

I got the little parts i have been needing in, bov flange, extra couplers, 90 cast elbow(waiting to get back from welding on my compressor housing) Then getting powder coated 1000 degree black. I also ordered some other colors of powder(semi-gloss black, metallic black, gloss black, and the 1000 degree black)

I order the fittings for my fuel rail, and a tap so i can tap the rail and run the steel -8an fittings.

And lastly i got the Q45 throttle body, cleaned it, painted it black, Then finished mock up of the intercooler pipes. Just need to get the bov flange which came in the mail today, welded on and thats all done! Waiting on the tb gasket as well.

So pretty much all i have left to get is clutch, fuel system, wastegate cams/springs&retainers, and DSMlink. And a bunch of random small thiings Not much more! Just a good 2k in parts and alot of time and hard work!

Anyway pics of the finished piping, and the new TB, a lil later tonight.

By the way thanks for the compliments guys!

I also re did the turbine housing with 1000 degree powder. I did the thermostat housings gloss black. And did the fuel rail gloss black. I tapped the fuel rail and threaded in the an-8 fittings too!
