Quote from: "philster_d"I wish I had a time lapse camera, then I could make a wicked movie of the journey across europe.

Can you remote fire your camera? Timers are easy to build. s8)

(you actually have an adjustable timer in your car, the heated rear window is through one)

finally could upload some pics. Here are the manifold and my setup pics.

Lee!! Make sure when you get the kit to check the manifold inside. No slugs should be left in them. It is better to check again then shorten the life of turbo.

philster_d · March 24, 2006, 20:22

Not long gas. how are we looking ? s:D

spynish · March 25, 2006, 08:49

That manifold seems very strong... s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

Very nice Gas.

.......driiiiift.......

Does this mean we need longer studs on the cylinder head now, or are you using extended nuts?

markiii · March 25, 2006, 20:39

Gas,

quick question, since this is cast how difficult would it be to weld on 02 bungs? granted yoru kit doesn't need them but I'm toying with something

cheers

Mark.

I wwould rather drill the right size of holle and cut the right thred in it. It would hold fine. Since it has been heat treated any welding makes it sensible on cracking.

Guys I need a good used or new inexpensive suspension kit and wheels with drag radials or with drag tires. Please help me or my car will never run good times. I allready almost killed myself 3 times after 2 days of use on my MR2. It is extremly dangerous to have that much power on the stock susp andd tires.
Thanks in advance
