RE: Well here goes nothing
Woohoo! Big update!! Spent about 6 hours in the metal shop at my old high school today and got both flanges cut for the down pipe, the adapter plate drilled, then found some gasket material the teacher had and assembled everything!
But, then there are oil line troubles. My drain line is perfect, i'm stoked on that, but for my feed line, i took the old adapter that hooked up to the old oil feed line (becasue it didnt fit my new lines), but now none of the new adapters i have fit the hole on the turbo. One looks to be the same size, but the threads are really tight and it doesnt screw into the turbo
you can see in that one picture the turbo feed hole. So what should i do? Another problem is that the line that looks into the sandwich adapter is also the one that has those fine threads, so i'm at a loss. I have 4 adapters, one from the old lines, one restrictor i ordered, then the oil line kit came with two, one of which fits the sandwich adatper. So, ideas??

RE: Well here goes nothing
oh and that last picture is for Gene who said he wanted more pics of my project, if i can get another digi camera i'll take pics of the resistor box and vac mani mounted, but in that picture you can see the turbo timer, intercooler, harnesses, vac lines, oil pan gasket, and then in those boxes are my oil line kit, injectors, and BOV

RE: Well here goes nothing
went to AutoValue today, bought:
- vacuum lines
- vacuum nipples
- various vacuum adapters
- spark plugs one step colder (and gapper)
- all clamps for vacuum lines
and looked into fixing my oil line problem, i just need an adapter for a few of those oil inlet/restrictors and then i think they'll fit up....just takes time
also ordered my little K&N filter, it should be in in like a week, will bolt right onto the turbo, should be siiiiick
