the car is almost up and running again. no awd yet.... my mechanic told me hopefully in late april he would have some time to start doing the swap for me. in the mean time i put my turbo, manifold, wastegate, aem, 1600cc, and steel braided lines, arp exhaust manifold studs, and some new gaskets. i had ordered a bunch of 3" aluminum ic piping, just recieved them today. im just going to redo the coldside, and add a 50mm tial bov. weve had some nice weather these past few days, it would have been really nice if i had the car to drive. i hate driving my jeep all the time. well heres some pics for you guys to check out how its coming along. let me know what you guys think, hopefully more to come soon.

Your engine bay looks simple, organized, and nice! Somebody put stickers underneath your hood....but that's okay, too.

just for you tonus, lol. the car goes in the shop thursday to do the ic piping, then i just need a tune. as soon as its ready ill put something together.

Why dont plug your MAP sensor directly on the intake mani ? Best response ...

Nice work

ive heard putting directly is the best way also, but i also heard it kills the sensor life a whole lot faster. but this is just from what i heard, thanks for the comment.

car looks good.. where did you get that intake manifold>? i want it!

89gt- under the knife

i bought it from a friend that never installed it on his dsm a couple of years ago. there very common, jmf themself and most dsm vendors carry it.

i got my cold side of my ic piping redone last week. also got a bracket made to mount the aem, and some other odds and ends i needed done. when the car was finished i brought it to my tuner enzo of www.Enzo-Racing.com. i didnt get to tune it yet because the car wont start unless the starter is jumped. when i turn the key nothing happens. i think its the ignition switch but i havent had a chance to check it out yet. i hear the mpi relay clicking. hopefully my next day off i can work on it to find the problem. i took some pics of the ic piping. anybody have an idea of what the problem with the igniton could be?

Cant wait to see some numbers from this thing. Nice set up!

Nice car. I'm thinking of doing a similar project so I'd like to come up and see the car. I'm in Brooklyn.
