for the most part. they came with double sided tape.. need a few screws.. pretty good to go though. i'm gonna like them when i get them painted.

friday i'll be paying for an oil cooler/relocation kit from kylesprotege5

excited for that. i'm taking a few steps forward. more to come this summer once the weather gets better. EFFF this stuff.

plus i've had a lot of side jobs, transmission replacement in my dads s10, head gasket on my brothers civic, EZvs water leak problem

the best part of this, is that when you are finally done and have one bad ass protege, you can finally sell it for a ****** miata.....


dub....

 

[Ricktalife]

So will this twin charger setup be risking the motor at all?

 

[ajkulish]

any form of FI will risk it if you run such high boost. but it depends on how much he wants to run

 

[theEZV]

he's got forged goodies

 

[Ricktalife]

Ah nice! I wasn't sure if it was built. Beat the s*** out of it!

 

[ajkulish]

hahahaha

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Come on guys, u really think he'd waste his time with twin charge on a stock motor?? LOL LOL

 

[Wagonbacker9]

Is anyone else as confused by this pic as I am?

 

[Ricktalife]

the 2 filters, yes I was wondering the same lol.

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Whats to be confused? He installed the turbo but not the fmic, and you don't want s*** going through it even if its not connected..

simple:

why?

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Maybe he couldn't wait to install it? Maybe it didn't have time to install everything in the same day? Maybe he got the wrong kit? Maybe it got damaged? I can think of plenty of reasons.

correct, and thanks for lookin out.

simple:

why?

dino wouldn't let me install the intercooler at first. he wanted me to not run boost while i broke the motor in..

when i break mine in, it'll be semi different... but yea.

it's absolutely forged. or will be. k1 rods, arias pistons. hopefully a par gearset.

 

[Wagonbacker9]

you know theres a par 3rd in the FS section for cheap right now right?
