Good job!
I have a lot of respect for those of you who do these quality turbo conversions. The amount of fabrication involved, the tuning, and possible problems all scare the crap outta me.

Such a beautiful build! I'm in awe. Someday....

I only get a couple chances a month to work on the car so there has not been much progress. ECU wiring is currently in progress.
Currently developing an instrumentation system.
Shot of the engine bay as of ~2 weeks ago. Fuel system is all plumbed now as well.
Money shot.

Nice work! The Tial's tucked away nicely... Just the manifold setup alone should yield gains on transient response and power. Amazing! Looks all too familiar, keep the artwork coming she's a beauty.

First start up happened today. Happy to finally hear it come to life!
Nice, nothing like the feeling of "it actually runs... I did it!" All the best!
BTW, I ended up going with the GTX3076R as well with the T3 5 bolt to mate with my current dump tube w/.82 a/r so I'm crossing my fingers. Still gotta port & coat my housings but I'm watching yours for your tuning now. Debating on sticking with my MS3 or trying the AEM EMS-4 setup that local tuners will tune.

Thanks Rich! Since you already had the MS3 up and running, I recommend you stick with it and give it a shot. Also, awesome news about the new turbo you got. I was in shock and disbelief when I read about what happened to your car. However, I knew that you would take the opportunity to improve things and you have done that. Can't wait to see your back on the road. Keep that thread updated!
