you actually need 2 45's and one id say 15deg. bend

Its easier to make a 4 inch dp and then transition it under the car when its going straight. and you can do it much more gradual. Ilso i had my dp off yesterday and i was noticing that i had black soot on the inside of my v-band clamp which says to me that its not sealing up correctly. Im going to order up one of these with there appropriate clamp that they sell and going to try it. http://www.siliconeintakes.com/product_info.php?cPath=10&products_id=327&osCsid=cd7d572d02e5481c85309a06d1f9250d The dimension in the photo gets the outer lip dimension alot closer than the one i have and i think it will work alot better.

If i remember correctly from what i was told from Speeder(hey had that kit at one point) the nob is a potentiometer that adjusts the resistance to the coolant sensor. It adjusts how rich or lean you are going to run. thats why the exhaust temps would go up when you turned it because you where making it leaner. which means its running hotter. Guys put those in on there cars all the time to help with tuning. This just came with it in the kit.

HVLP or id just use a gravity feed.

I used every thing from 400 to 1500 at the end before my final coat. I would maybe do it again but i would spray the paint on. Like spray 2 good coats and sand and then do maybe 3 more good coats and then wet sand and buff.

Its just a pain. and when you wet sand you just keep sanding through the edges. At least i did. Your just never going to get that deep looking paint that i want. Idk Just want something better. Its ok for now but Its just so much work. its to much work for the end result in my opinion. Jeff

Id rather strip it all off and paint it right rather than put any more effort into this paint job

Thats what your supposed to do after your final wet sand. I gave up and just left it ruff. Its like 12 coats and wet sanding between every 2-3

Thats not gloss black. I mixed it myself. Its like 3 parts royal blue to one part black

Rustoleum professional from lowes. search. my car in my sig was done with a roller

lol I couldnt get the plug out of mine so i cut it off and put a bolt in it and welded it up lol

I just recieved this e-mail from joe at SSAC when i told him i had a manifold to send to him. Jeff Without a sample of the " ACTUAL " manifold - we cannot make something based on a picture - as we dont know the proper lengths of the pipes, or how far the turbo flange is from point a to point b , and so on ......... We use Jigs and templets - Does anyone have a cracked " AFTERMARKET " manifold So its looking like we need an aftermarket manifold to send to him. kinda making this a little more difficult. I would think that we should shoot for a greddy or one like the type i showed earlier.. Input would be great guys. Jeff

I get mine tomorrow and i think im going to buy some RIMS or i could be smart and pay off some bills lol.

hrmmm how about my my work van???? lol

LOL ive had a few. one was out of a 300zx. one was out of a 92 i believe and now this one is out of an 89maybe. idk i didnt pay that much attention to it. here is my crossmember. It was my first welding project and it is really ugly but its worked so far. And when i say my first welding project i mean i went and bought a welder and hadnt welded before and tried to make this. lol

the b box speedo cog carrier can be used with the c box. Take the carrier and cut a slot 180deg. from the original holding slot. and then put it in just using the new slot you just made. it works fine
