Is it running yet? I remember when you bought that from under me what... a year ago? sheesh :p
 
bought it from Pete. and yes its running finally. and damn. nice. Boost FTW. had a accident today with a POS hose and oil went everywhere. replacing it tomorrow with better hose...Oil hose to be exact and ill be posting vids and pix later. its not a very clean install or anything. i didnt care. im leaving for basic in 3 wks i wanted to feel boost lol. besides within the next 2 years ill be dropping in a 3L and a cleaner install of the S/C
 
I know who you bought it from. I tried to buy it when you took a while to send him a deposit.:crazy:
 
lol snooze ya loose lol. its running. just ran into that oil line problem and will be fixed tomorrow. i did experience the greatness of boostage today so im happy
 
Hope to have boost and the tour by next year. I drove Rays:drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: and ever since I have wanted a boosted tour of my own. I want to build up a svt from the ground up.
 
i will be boosted as well come mid spring/ early summer with my own custom kit and with a t3/t4 50 trim or 57 trim....not sure yet though on which to use

3.5" x 6" x 27" is the upgraded one that flows 350whp ++ 7 inch^3 flow area (which is his but you can't see depth)
2.5" x 6" x 26" is the base one that put down 280whp 5 inch^3 flow area

these are vein port area which is only the place air flows through the cooling surface is the same with about 10% more on the upgraded on temp charge and 26% more on flow capacity

and the one you are getting is 9 inch^3 flow area which needs some mods to fit Aaron
and the one on my car top to bottom flow is 12 inch^3 of flow area :) it will flow beyond 700whp if needed
now remember a 3" pipe has 7 inch^3 of air flow too
and a 2.5" has 5 inch^3 of air flow
and a 2" has 3.14 inch^3 of air flow

and one thing is to remember you have a 25% more resistance of airflow when you are adding more walls like a intercooler veins so that must estimated when figuring in pressure drop Joey
 
:drool: :drool: :drool:

can't wait to get the rest of my kit :laugh:

btw Joey do you have install instructions written up? if so could you email them to me so I can look at them ahead of time?
 
Thanks for the info Joey. SInce you're the owner I'll let you have the bigger intercooler and settle for the one I'm getting :crazy: .
