Sneak Peek~whats brewin' in Pirana's garage

[Bala]

For now it looks like it fits with no problems and plenty of space in between.

Thanks! I'll be having similar clearances soon enough

Where did you get those bolts that you have on the valve cover? They look awesome!

 

[Pirana]

I obviously dont have enough money (emphasis in enough)...if I did, it would be in someones shop, not doing it myself....and not enough time since I got to work on it bits of time at a time. But I'am not complaining. (thumb)

[Pirana]

hey pirana, did your old mani crack? if not... wanna sell it?

 

[daedalus]

sweeeeeeet. I cant wait for mine to arrive now. Where did you get the stainless hardware for your valve cover? It cleans it up nice.

Is the install hard? Any fitment problems with the Perrin piping i should know about?

Keep us updated vic!

 

[rocketr2]

pirana: how is the performance ? did you notice some HP gains ?

 

[Pirana]

Is not installed yet...the studs should be here tomorrow afternoon, and hopefully finish by Tuesday.

Pulling everything was not a problem...everything came out right out. Used PB Blaster to loosen up the bolts...already had one busted stud in the "J" pipe...dont know how that happened, I just looked and was missing one bolt.

It looks like one of the bolts on the bottom row, is going to be a pain in the ass, dont know how I'am going to do it but time will tell. I also removed the water neck for more space and at the same time install the Defi water temp sensor. I also placed the Defi egt sensor on runner number one. I have pics of the whole process and will post them as soon as finish.

I placed the Perrin pipe and it looked like it will clear with no issues, I think there will be too much polished pipes, hehehe.

If you are referring to the little chrome bolt caps, those are from Autozone...they fit over the regular 10mm bolts. Nice, eh!

muahahahah dyno's to come before and after tunes.

 

[Pirana]

well I think after all this is done, my car should be as fast as yours....hehehe.

 

[JDM Sam]

Should be faster as long you hold your boost.

 

[dallas alex]

so did you bust the old mani or not?

 

[Pirana]

No, no...this is just as everything else...an upgrade.

 

[Pirana]

well everything is done but still missing some new fans for the new PWR radiator. Hopefully it will be done by this weekend. It wasnt fun I tell you, some of the nuts are extremely tight to do, but they are all in there....will make a how-to after is all done.
