Sounds like you will be ready for the season

That's the plan. I pretty much just need to make a drain tube, weld a vband on my downpipe, weld some vbands on my o2 for my wastegate, make an intake, and get stuff powder and ceramic coated and then install it all! I will most likely have Jesse at Primo Performance TIG my v-bands on and he will also coat my stuff.

Got ECMLink V3 and my silver FIC fuel rail! Stuff is really starting to pile up, next up is ordering an STM oil cooler kit, and probably a Prosport electronic warning oil pressure gauge.

Small bolt on stamped metal pieces with two bolt holes that hold the turbine housing to the center section of a turbo.

I ordered a black 4" silicone coupler (for my intake), a 3" SS vband flanges and SS clamp, a new fan install kit (I have to remount my slim fan on my radiator!)

I need an intake filter next!

Re: My Talon
 
let me know what the cost is on that coupler, and what filter you are going with. I too need a new one since the turbo melted my old one.

I hate how expensive air filters are. They probably cost about 3 dollars to make.

I have a K&N filter for GM cars, like 9-12" long 3 1/2 opening i think.

I got my KN from MAP a few years ago at a good price. I was able to just go to KN's site and look at all the options, and MAP ordered up the exact one I wanted. Just an FYI.

Also, post up pics of the intake when you are done making it. I really want to see what it looks like!!

What MAS are you running?

GM 3" in blow through (maybe I'll go to an evo MAF after using Link lol). I have the GM Maf cable for my ECMlinkV3. The intake is one of the last things ill be doing as I need the turbo installed! But I will put pics up :)

I got a black silicone 4 ply coupler from www.siliconeintakes.com! I have ordered a few things from them before, and they always had extremely low prices and very fast shipping!

They are somehow affiliates of Jack's Transmissions, too.

I'm going to be running an EVO MAS as well. I'm excited to see how your setup does.

Me too. Hopefully my engine survives. I did a mostly stock rebuild like 15k ago and I have no faith lol as it was my 1st engine build; there were a lot of things I would do differently. But hey it's lasted this long!
