What brand of couplers are those? It's good to see my old motor inserts are going to good use.

TkrPerformance · 03-23-2006

thanks
they are xo's

sigh...i wish i had the time and money and space to do work like that...good luck!

eclipseGSX108 · 03-24-2006

one thing i would have done is gotten red couplers to match the red engine bay..

but then again nobody asked for my opinion lol... Nice setup though none the less.. Congrats

Where did you get that O2 housing? I like it. If I ever have to go to external wastegate, that would be the one I'd want. I could keep the stock ex. manifold then. Also how much $$$. Thanks.

Victory Performance Makes a similar o2 housing, the only draw back is you can't get the gasket to fit between the o2 housing and tial waste gate.

the cupplers only came in blue from them and the eninge bay is being painted flat black
I got the O2 and tial from slowbubble. (and you can on have power stearing with mine)
I can take a pic of my bros that I made for his 40mm tial

**Goat Blower** · 03-24-2006

I'm thinking of doing something similar for an 02 housing when I switch to my 3.5" system. Kinda the same as what I've got now except the wastegate would plumb in up high like yours. Thanks for the pics of the tranny fluid.

Onefast99gsx · 03-24-2006

Does slowbubble make the o2 housings or did he get it from a guy who got it from another guy type things... ?? I'm looking to know the manufacturer and price. If I can't hold any boost at the track this summer, the internal gate is the first thing to go. What you have is great. I would never give up power steering. As long as everything has the right angles and such for the downpipe so that don't have to be modified.

TkrPerformance · 03-24-2006

as far as I know qpr made it for him.
It comes straight out to the tial so it would hit the power stering pump so it had to go.
The one I made for my bro is angled to the raidator so his p.s. still works

Onefast99gsx · 03-24-2006

which = No Longer in Business anymore. I can prolly find one out there similar in design if I look hard enough.

Please take some close ups of your brothers. Thanks.
