#23934, "Update pics of the custom turbo"


          

Well for all of you that doubted my flexible IC piping you were 1/2 right. It didn't bend at all but when I was doing the soapy water test the pipes were bubbling. The freaking air was leaking out of the pipes. That was idling so who knows how much was leaking at 9 psi??? Anyway I replaced all the flexpipe w/ mandral bends. Here is what it looks like now. Anything else look like it needs fixed or altered?

looks real nice, how did the intercooler hook up, because with the other pipes it looked a little awkward

The IC is wedged in and held in place by the pipes. I also have ties on it just incase. I had 3 90 degree bends and I only had to cut one piece of 3" straight pipe. The rest fit perfectly. I guess I got lucky w/ the in/outlets on the IC.

other things you youll probably still need, as so do i:

BOV
CONNECTORS/CLAMPS/T

FUEL PUMP Walbro 255lph HI-Pressure (on ebay sometimes).

i'm sure there were a few things i forgot.
just start doing searches on this board for all the different fraise's and words ive thrown up above and youll start gettin an idea of what it all amounts too. and hopefully not long after youll start to realize how it is all pretty simple/logical stuff, and then it will be the only thing you think about until its done. emoji

you make it sound simple but it is far from that if you don't know how it works.
