Laser's $100 Project Thread

any more updates on the super spendy project.. i mean the s2k could have been boosted 10 fold for the price of this

Scheides and I still need to do our scientific time testing post-MBC install, we'll try and do it after Applebee's tomorrow night! Other than that, I still have $12 in the fund so I should pick up some washers and bearings aka metal shifter bushings.

Why don't you buy a new cut-off wheel for your angle grinder (assuming you have one or have access to one) and lower your car. ;)

[Kracka]

That would minimize my snowbank domination abilities :)

[FattyBoomBatty]

That gives way to another great idea, buy a sheet of thin steel and make the bottom really smooth for the better drag coefficient.

[Kracka]

I sold the boost controller for $25 putting me at $88-25 = $63 total for my project. The car doesn't feel much slower w/o the MBC so I may just leave it and enjoy the extra cushion of safety in the name of reliability.

[scheides]

no way, you allotted $100, you gotta get some $37 exhaust!!!

[Halon]

Just drop the whole exhaust and jb weld a Cherry Bomb to the downpipe!

I went and spent the remainder of my fund today on a 3" cast aluminum intake pipe with a BOV recirculation tube and also a larger turbo outlet elbow. I will try and sell my other 3" intake so I can have a few more $$$ to play with before winter comes.
