Re: Project Lex

Cool thanks man, glad you like it. I do love how loud the turbo is, and the exhaust tone of this car. Just need to recirc my wastegate dump, not a fan of the loud annoying blahhhh. Drowns out the much better sounds like the turbo and sexay exhaust tone. I have some flex exhaust tubing on the way. And thanks for hooking me up with those small straight sections that I can use, it'll be perfect for what I'm planning I think.

Car is still running like a champ. So I'm not going to touch a thing until dyno day. So for the time being, started planning some misc stuff. Since I'll be making my own Intake Mani, I was thinking about what to do for vacuum ports on it. So made this crude drawing showing the simplest and cleanest way to run to run these lines. It involves using a couple Tee's which I'm not 100% a fan of, but seems like it would end up being the cleanest and simplest way of doing things, because some of them it means I only have to run one line and the 2 components are somewhat close to each other so then I just Tee it right near the components, rather than running 2 separate lines. Just a little simpler and cleaner. And where I use a Tee, I use a larger line feeding the Tee which is 2 smaller lines to hopefully reduce any issues with pressure loss or whatever could be caused from running a Tee.

But, interested to hear other peoples thoughts...
