I was able to get the transaxle put back together (mostly). I was also able replace one of the leaky freeze plugs (and applied sealant to it). Yes, I know the axle nuts need to be banged into the groove to prevent spin-off. ;)

The radiator pressure tester is from Harbor Freight. Updates: My transmission case came back from Ferdi. Cleaned all of the old sealant off. It's about ready to go back onto my transmission: Picked this up off of Amazon to do some repairs on some wiring under the hood: I had to...

UPDATE: Over a week ago, I pressure-tested my coolant system. I found that two freeze plugs (one in the front of the block and one in the rear) were leaking. I will have to take a bunch of s*** off to get a good angle on them.... I also was able to send my case off for machining for the...

Ouch. This hurts a little, but let's see if we can make it happen.

protege5,20inch, I was able to get the plug out, and install a new one with some sealant: New plug with sealant: ogsp5, I am running two different fans. The first fan on the driver's side is a 1360 CFM 12 inch Spal High Performance, curved blade (that sucker is 3.39 inches in depth)...

Thanks all. I've been itching to drive my MP3 again, but there have been numerous setbacks. Here are the latest updates: Got my new Synapse BOV flange in so I was able to install my SB001a to the pipe: It looks good in the engine bay: With the a Fan Mounting Kit I was able to mount my...

Weekend Update: More progress this week: I test-fitted cold pipe routing with the new ection I had made for the air temp sensor and the BOV. I'm just waiting on a new flange from Synapse. I also have to go buy new snap ring pliers as the ones I had broke. I had to cut the line away from...

What's up old friend. They are still here. Check your PM box.

Holy hell,that's a lot of work. Good build.

I need to go to the doctor because this is SICK!!! Thanks for sharing your build.

Tonight I got the remaining hot-side pipes bead-rolled, and connected them. I wish the previous owner had not cut them. I'm a little concerned about the coupler being by the manifold. May need a fire sleeve? I also had to deploy some anti-rub countermeasures to keep my pipes and lines...

Since the piping had been cut to incorporate the relocation of the MAF sensor there is a section of pipe missing. Since I don't need the MAF sensor with my Haltech setup, I had this custom pipe made instead so I don't have to modify the existing FMIC piping. I plan to just cap off the...

Turbo and water lines all installed:

Tonight, I worked to figure out how to arrange my FIAMM Airhorns with the TurboLife FMIC below. I can't go back to the stock horn. It looks like I'll have some cutting to do on the upper grille to get it all to fit.

Can't jusy sell one. Sorry.

It does. I'm going to get a HKS-style flange welded on though for my Synapse BOV.

Was able to cut both holes, and moved the A/C dryer lines down as well: I ended screwing it into the frame with a metal screw just blow the original location: Oh, and the FMIC is now mounted!!!

Where is number 10?

I've noticed that the dryer lines in my MP3 connect differently than in the MSP due to the dimensions of the MSP condenser. Here is what I'm referring to:

Tonight I started making preparations for the TurboLife FMIC. I moved the power steering cooling loop behind the vertical bracket. I also wrapped sections of the loop that I thought would rub with protection. Here I'm test-fitting the hot pipe to see where the best place is to cut with my...
