Nice update today:

1. I fixed the short that caused my tails and gauges to go out +2!

2. We moved the intercooler up, more of the bumper support went. +1

3. Installed the smaller brake pedal. I'm gonna try to do the clutch pedal this weekend. (Doing the auto to 5-spd swap) +2

4. The handbrake works! +2

5. Ghetto rigged a cold air intake using the intercooler. We put mesh on the inlet lol.+5 ahaha

6. Removed the cruise control. (never used it.)


We decided on that style intercooler to simplify the piping.


We didnt get to mount the turbo but theres still time. Piping should be here soon as well as the BOV so its about to really begin! We've got everything except for the piggyback and a few small things that dont have to be ordered (Home Depot!)


No more cruise:

More stuff came in today =D

Its about time to start putting everything together...

Since I have a returnless fuel system I decided to change my fuel rails to the 3vzfe rails and add the returnline, FPR and new fuel pump.
