well come on.... i dont know why we arent getting tickets and burning rubber yet..lol
dude when you finish your car and clean /wax it for the first time make sure you clean that garage of yours...if you were my kid i would ban you from entering the garage

Lol that is very entertaining lol hahaha
mad coolling intake lol
well what i did today..did the piping, and wired the efan, the starter, bolted the exhaust,
almost done... just need to make some IC brackets, and find the 2.25-2.5" reducer coupler... lowes didnt have that.. all they had was 1.5-2" reducer couplers.. so gayy...

bro for the mean time till you get cash go to home depot get two strips of 1/8th " angle irons
and just bend two 90 degree bends it should help instead two long studs like that, and in the bottom you use the same material exept use the two 10mm screw points on the bottom of the chassis

i dont get it.. your engine bay shouldnt look cluttered anymore but it does!!
haha jk.. yah make sure you mount the ic very secure.. I had trusted a friend to mount my hks type s fmic on my s13 *he didnt read hte instructions, he decided he would use his imagination instead with the bag of parts in front of him* and just bolted the middle top bracket and relied on the couplings to hold the ic together.. eventually the top bracket broke off from teh IC *expensive hks core = ouch* but it didnt effect /touch the passage core, and tore a coupling.. THat FMIC is going to see alot of vibrations etc so you wanna make it solid.
the throttle body piping looks scary, but you cant do much til you get some more funds for the greddy piece and better piping. might have alot of lag or stress the crap out of that turbo. Where you live, there should be tons of shops to get couplings from, i think speedfactor on valley should have some.

thx guys. Ill look around for the couplers tmrw, and try on the NA elbow. Stop by homedpot for brackets
never though the NA elbow fits on a t2 TB, crazy.. how did u figure that out lol

oh yeah the mod is easy, did it when i was bored in like 15 min lol just tossed the whole tail light in my oven at 250 for like 5 min, and pryed it apart fast and took out the inner lense diffusers and sealed it imediately while itwas still hot.. one of tail lights, i left it in the oven too long, and it melted the rear housing ! DOOHHH, so i had to grind the bulb mounts...

okay reloacted the battery and mounted the IC...Just as Iwas putting the s5 t2 ecu into the pass side to plug in i realized something important.. Yes could it be...noo way itcant...
I have a s4 na body...and im putting in a s5 turbo ecu and harness. That is not guna work.. SO yeah ... I fail once again.
How did my s4 na car run a t2 before, ??? Jpr motoring did it with a na wiring harness and ecu, he never actualy converte dthe body to s5. wtf... what should I do now.. should I run the same setup as what jpr did?? or should I swap out the entire bodys wiring harness to s5????how the heck am I guna aford that... fluuck..............
Complications.i would go standalone ecu to solve all problems, but damn I hav no funds.. Im stuck with a s5 turbo 2 harness and ecu that I cant even use..The motor is entirely s5 as well including the sensors, omp, , and missing a s5 t2 afm...
Im thinking I have to go with a s4 t2 harness setup to accept my cars s4 bodywires...
sigh.... emo time/// anybody wanna trade the s5 t2 harness and ecu for a s4 one? DO i have to get s4 t2 injectors too??? damn................................

i guess ill just chill for awhile until i get funds.......For now, the project is to a stop....damn... unless should I do what JPR did.. Run the modded s4 na harness and ecu and risk my engine blowing????? it ran well for two years until it blew with that setup..There was no OMP plugs, so I dont even think the engine was premixing oil. wtf..stresed////
