Turboing your 5sfe, with pics (56k beware) Options

[Batman722]

The 5sfte weekend is over (for me anyway). Here are some pics I took the last 2 days...Manny (presure2) should be around sometime to post a bunch more, I left my camera in the car for most 90% of the second day.

first off, I love this pic...


next, Manny underneath


turbo /manifold/downpipe/ect...in the trunk


battery relocated in the trunk


making room in the bay


add turbo


replace with a bigger fuel pump (under the back seats)


connect new things and reconnect everything else


double check


add cool looking gauges


add oil


what kind of oil you ask ? ask Manny


and the money shots...Manny and his wife Jen


and me


This is the abreviated version, like I said Manny should be around sometime hopefully to post some better more detailed pics.

Congratulations Manny, you have a damn nice 5sfte

yes, back in November Manny swapped his older beat up 5sfe for a much newer (like new around 50K miles) 5sfe.

Art, we took a lot of pics and a vid or 2 on the last day with Manny's camera. He has all of the pics of the piping.
