then they tuned the whole thing ;)

i will post pics tonight!!
also im getting a downpipe back 3" exhaust made with 2 vibrant resonators, 1 vibrant cat, and 1 vibrant turbo muffler, this will also be made by protege garage, hopefully sometime next week or the week after.

Stay tuned for info on the car!!
 
UPDATE! okay so no car...thats right no car haha

ken called and we were rushing for time cause i need a car, but he told me the car is obviously running but its boosting about 10psi and the afc needs to be tuned better/bov needs some work as it has some hesitation at times and it stalled once or maybe twice. Well we agreed that its best for him to keep it and finish it, meanwhile ill have to mooch rides of friends and family ;) So basically there gonna fix the bov and dial in and tune it afc perfectly and i get my 3" exhaust! So again not mad, actually happy! ill keep this thread as updates....
 
dude congrats on the installs! i'm ken will get everything running properly and will be well worth it when he's done! cant wait to see pics....hopefully i will be able to accomplish this task one day! haha. this non turbo driving around stuff=no excitement!
 
Dang, nice to hear, you gotta be freakin' out your so close, you can taste the boost!!! Can't wait for an onslaught of pic's and video's...

omg i am!!! i told my friends that when i get my car, all im gonna be doing that day and probably the next couple of days is just driving my car. So if you want to hang out ill pick you up and we'll go driving haha
 
I'm jealous! I can't wait to see pics, and, i know you've gotta be sh!tting yourself waiting now. I'd be going bonkers!

And, what's your total cost on just the motor/turbo setup and tuned? Or do you want to divulge that info? lol

I am saving my pennies for boost.
 
umm parts about 2000-2500 and labor/tunning about 1750 most of the labor cost is for the custom fmic "pg" is making, thats a big project so big money for just labor on that part. For an example im also getting a custom exhaust at "pg" i supplied 2resonators, 1 cat, and 1 muffler so just the parts for the exhaust were about 475, then labor....but would i do it again? In a heartbeat, AND i dont even have the car yet!!!
 
cant wait to see pictures! im sure ken and protege garage do great work. congrats man.
 
i know im so excited! ill be sure to take pics, videos! ill post up any info about the car as soon as i here it....now i just need a wisconsin or illinois meet ;)
