man o man did i have a good day!!!!

i got the turbo in and solved the oil pressure problem.

all i can say is WOW. at 50% throttle it is faster than the car was when NA at 100% throttle

i had a ton of problems today. the piping kept blowing off at different places and then the gasket i made blew apart(used the wrong gasket material)

but its all working now and im boosting at 6psi with no hesitation and a whole lot of noise. im running only a down pipe that i made myself until i can get one made on tuesday.

so, yeah, after a year of parts gathering, hours of thought, and days and days of work, ITS DONE(well, the parts i can do that is)

BTW, the best part was hearing the BOV, which is really really really loud. i could clearly hear it despite running open exhaust.

Yeah i was going to put it between the throttle body and intercooler too, but its real tough on the 3s cuz of the TMIC.

Did you weld the BOV or get a kit?
