        Lookin good. My paint is worse. I think our hot pipes are the same and there was just enough space to run the charge pipe out of the IC on the drivers side around the tow hook and up between the cold side of the turbo and the trans. Keeps the charge pipe from heat soaking as bad as if it were run over the top of the turbo.

          Yea my old car had the charge piping run right over the hotside of the turbo... all i did then was throw come extra couplers around the pipe above to turbo before.... but yea def a better idea to stay away from the hotside

            Where'd you pick up those tires? Are they going on the FDs? I'm looking for a good set for my FDs as well.

                  lookin good i should be back at the end of march and im gonna take my ranger there to play with it. I also wouldnt mind taking the probe there also. Im gonna have to change my oil to something a little thicker since those precision turbos dont like full synthetic oil to much. The probe is pulling a little harder now since i changed my plugs i had old ones in there when i had it tuned.
                  Here is the 96 gt turbo No more leaks and running great 270whp 259 torque 8psi

                              Every body getting there cars ready for the big meet. Should have some good races. keep picking at her man, steady as she go.

                              I just noticed in one of your pics where the turbo is mounted to the flange. Your going to need some grade8 bolts and lock nuts or them suckers r coming loose with vibration and heat cycle. Or at least some red lock tite. Just a suggestion.
