okay... so another update followed by the woes.

Started on the 16g install today

Everything is going great on it. Got everything off the car, including the stock side mount i/c and all the piping. Got the evo3 16g mounted on the evo3 exhaust manifold and the evo3 o2 housing. everything is going great. Put the turbo in the car. Now comes the bad part. I bought a 16g install kit from extremepsi.com and apparently they didn't give me the right fitting for the oil feed line. Now I have to wait til tomorrow, and hopefully find some in town, if i can't, the car will be out of commission for the week. Oh well.

Got the fmic installed, and all the piping on, although i have to redo the routing of the upper charge pipe.

Toward the end of the night, it started raining. My buddy, who's been so kind as to let me use his garage, had parked his trans am outside. He doesn't like for it to get rained on. Well, it started raining while I was under the car, and I didn't even pay it any mind, as I was way busy. I hear him start up the car about an hour later, and then he comes running in all kinds of pissed. Apparently the hood of the car was up, and rain on his engine is a no no. I didn't really understand that before tonight. To top things off, He shorted his lights, so they stayed on until he pulled the fuse. I'm sure I'm in trouble come tomorrow, we shall see.

Here are the pics:
