First question you all are going to ask is, why is the turbo way over there? The turbo is so big that it literally would not fit between the radiator support and the engine. So I built an up-pipe to go from the manifold to the turbo.
This is a 3/4" turbo drain, which is huge, but I wanted to make 100% sure that there wasn't a draining problem. The downpipe.... Inlet and outlet of the radiator modified... This monster is a 3000cfm fan (not a typo). This intercooler is the real thing... Garrett core, 3 1/2" thick....

QUOTE(lagos @ Apr 21, 2007 - 9:28 PM) [snapback]549217[/snapback] dont take this the wrong way, but with the amount of money people are spending here, i think they deserve a cleaner looking engine bay. cleaning or painting the valve cover would make a world of difference in that car. I think Dr.tweak is doing a great job. He is not wasting time on the unnessary stuff. This way he can cut cost and give the owner the most bang for the buck. If it was up to me, i would want to swap in the engine with no maintains done (seals/fluid changes). That way I can do it myself and feel like I actually did something to help my car. I mean, I'm sure if the owner wanted it, he would have paid/asked tweak to do it for him. back on topic. WOW at first, i was like. that is alot of IC pipes. then i remember this is a dual charged beast LOL. whats up with the hacked up radiator support? |
