Got a couple of more deliveries today, steering rack was done and dropped off for coating, should be good to get the front subframe in the car in the next couple of weeks. Be good to actually start putting it back together.

Must be nice to have forward progression 

Just getting stuff done/ ready, forward progression will be when the front end is back in. Active we’re really good, got the rack turned over in 24 hours, wish all the shops were that efficient

Absolute bastard 😤

If that was under 2k I'm impressed. The old man is bugging me to change our white 32 back to stock but everyone wants a pound of flesh for them 😡

I paid $2700 for it, I remember when bonnets were under 1k, some are asking 4K+ for them. All you can do is put the feelers out and see what pops up, I did a WTB add on the FB GTR groups, got about 4-5 responses, so they are out there, but like you said, pound of flesh, some want 2 pound! Lol

Twin scroll manifold, with pulses split to the gate, looks the business!

Silly to go single scroll these days, not sure why go many big setups still do this when you have beautiful manifolds like that!

Only reason is because a lot of turbos aren’t available with twin scroll housings any more 

Blame Murica, they're too busy doing twin turbos on everything they can find.

And from an educated guess, they're the world's greatest consumers of turbos and soon RBs lol.

Well with a 7675 strapped to it, I’ll need all the help I can get to get it on boost.

That is all suitable, They can even do plastic parts, he showed me a fuse box cover from a VL he did, looked brand new. I’ve given him a few plastic parts, I’ll post them when I get them back. 

Thanks for the info.

Received my first batch of Cerakoted parts today and they look so nice and OEM.

This will become an addiction. Bye bye bank account balance.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
