yeh the el will be finnished soon anyway. yeh plans are to get another eb and swap as much stuff as i can over from my old one haha not sure how much can be saved though. reckon you would make up another light to match the garnish and left hand light if needed so i can swap em into the next eb/ed?

The EL now has the 3 inch exhaust on and cooler piping is 97% done!!!! i also painted the cooler black so it doesnt stand out and took the clear taillights out so its now as sleeper spec as its goin to be ;-)

.. just need to get a bend made up or sillcone joiner to go from just infront of the strut tower were my cooler piping comes out to my turbo outlet, what have other people done with theres for that little bit? im keen to have it boostin the w.e. :grin:

by **nath** » October 21st, 2009, 7:00 pm

Cooler when i first painted it

My 3inch exhaust, doesnt really stand out ;-)

by **nath** » October 21st, 2009, 10:03 pm

by **boostedbb** » November 1st, 2009, 5:31 pm

looking good know nath, did you buy the exhaust and pipe work off jayson did ya?

by **nath** » November 1st, 2009, 10:17 pm

haha yeh phat el im startin to think it needs em too, yeh i brought em of jayce hafta get a little bit changed casue his turbo was fair bit smaller than mine and my turbo has like a v-band clamp flange on the end ;/ was alot cheaper and quicker option than getting it made up for myself

by **boostedbb** » November 2nd, 2009, 11:13 am

i know hey i was going to buy his exhaust but you beat me to it im gettin the 42lb injectors and ems computer off him

by **nath** » November 2nd, 2009, 11:58 am

aw yep sweet, should be good yeh he was tryin to sell em to me but i dont have a need for them at this point haha, hows your ef coming along man?

by **boostedbb** » November 2nd, 2009, 2:51 pm

yeah slowly i just got another bem for the smart lock see if that fixes it tomorrow but it lives out at my parents so i don't get to work on it much will be moving into new house in month or two and will have big shed so then i might get somewhere with it

by **nath** » December 28th, 2009, 10:24 pm

alright at the moment all i need to to do is get fuel reg and fuel pump install them.. easy enough. And have a short peice of pipe made up up to go from the turbo outlet to the begining of my intercooler piping, now my turbo has a flanged outlet so i assumed i need a flange on the end of this peice of pipe and a suitable V-clamp so i can attach it.. problem was that i didnt have a flange for it, tried to find someone stocking them around town with no luck, so i brought one of ebay with a clamp and took it to an exhuast shop to have the pipe made up with the flange on the end, when i go to pick my car up they tell me the flange isnt the same size and wont be any good and to go get a flange that is the same size and then bring the car back...

So thats where i am at now, trying to find a flange to fit my turbo, so does anyone know where abouts i could get a flange to fit a garrett turbo i belive its a GT40, its 2.5 inch but the 2.5 inch flange i got isnt suitable 'aprently'. its just a stage 3 snort kit so i reckon there'd be a few people that have overcome this same dilema.. any help appreciated cheers

by **sexyr6** » January 18th, 2010, 7:29 pm

hows it coming along Nath?

by **EFFalcon** » January 18th, 2010, 7:53 pm
