Here's the old and new pic from the transformation. Still have some work to do. New intercooler pipes are next, and just some other small things like change the red reducer off the turbo to the intake to a black one, and painting most of the engine coolant bottle black except for a line to see if its full or not. Any other suggestions?

Looks 10x's better IMO! Did you use the copper gasket spray on your mani? If so how did you prep it because it looks great!

Thanks! The intake manifold is powder coated gun metal by concept illusions. The exhaust manifold and turbo are ceramic coated 2000 degree heat rated by performance coatings. Both company's did a great job.

your compressor housing looks rusty...?
overall, looks good tho.

haha ricer :P

gawd, clean engine bays featuring turbochargers as the main attraction are sexy

There 2 small filters that are connected to one tube it came all one peice. The filters sit right where the cut out are for my hoods. And no it doesnt look "rice" so whenever you and "toucan sam" from fruit loops want to run it with your toucan wires let me know.

LOL You're right i am a ricer now come up to Portsmouth NH and get your flyby!

Your engine bay does look clean now with the red valve cover, and the cleaned up turbo.

hey guys!
WOW I have respect 4 people who put Turbo's on there 420A

My new setup will have 3 air filters. one red, one green, one blue. Beat that!

and when winter gets here I might put one on the tail pipe too, too keep the exhaust fresh.

It's all in good fun. If everyone was the same and everyone liked the same things, the world would be a very boring place.

You've just used the most fucking overused and annoying catch-all aphorism that exists. I won't hold it against you if you can explain how having two filters won't create turbulance before the compressor wheel. You have thirty seconds.
