soxfan143 Full-Race build

Well guys, the time has come for me to become a big boy. I'm not doing a complete Full-Race kit just yet but I will be running the heart and soul of a Full-race kit....The manifold and downpipe. The FMIC will be coming in the spring. Here are some pics of a REAL manifold. I will update the thread as the build progresses. Thanks Aaron and Geoff. You guys are awesome!!!

Here's the motor naked.



Here's just the mani in there looking bad ass.


This bolt is a ***** to get on because of how tight it is to the runner. You will need to start the bolt with the mani pulled out a bit.

And here is the turbo on the mani. I only got this far today.

Well guys the stuff is all in except the ID 1000s. I didn't feel like possibly having drivability issues due to increased pressure and not knowing exactly what my pressure is at this time. I'm going to install a Hybrid Racing rail with a pressure gauge so I know what's going on.

For now here are the install pics and some pics of me and Scott recircing the dump. Came out awesome. I did all the prep work and install he did all the welding. We also made a custom 3" intake tube that I didn't get any pics of because I was beat and just wanted to get it in and running.


Here's the downpipe cut open to allow the dump to be welded on.



Here's the dump cut and shaped by me on the belt sander.



Here's the dump installed and mocked up for tack welding.



Here it is tacked and ready for welding.


And the finished product



Here's the bay and the intake as best as I can get it.
