Also, he'* bringing the turbo tomorrow to fit it in place. Going to snap a few pictures with that all installed.

I will be anxiously awaiting fresh pics LOL.

Changed the wheel hubs today. That was a fight with rounded bolts and such, but I defeated them.


And now a few beauty shots.








Next week the steering rack goes in, finally. New ball joints, and that'* it. The rest is putting it all back in. Hope to have the engine back in the car next week.

Talk about a tight fit, this is the down pipe.


The turbo

Nicely done.

Is he going to reroute the filter so its not inside the engine bay?

It will be down by the PCM. There will be a AtA intercooler that needs to be installed yet.

What'* the guestimate on HP this beast going to put out?

And uh, how long do L36 bottoms last with a turbo?

I have no clue on either question.

LOL, I guess you will be having a returning customer then! LOL

I'm going to start taking bets on when the first ticket will be written.
