first part in...pretty important one too

Roddimus Prime February-21st-2006 01:46 PM

not too bad...any more angles??

It looks like it has an EGT sensor right on the exhaust? or is that an o2?? seems awefully close to the turbine to be an o2.

Are you going to have it rebuilt? Might be worth it...you dont want a fin breaking off and being shot into your engine.

macdaddyslomo February-21st-2006 02:55 PM

I can get more angles....honestly I probably wont have it rebuilt....it was VERY low mileage(like 6000 miles), and there is ZERO shaft play on it.....yes that's an 02 sensor, I wont be using that part though, the hiboost downpipe will replace it....

the only thing that pissed me off is 2 of the studs on the exhaust housing are broken off so I'll have to "EZ OUT" them and get new ones....

Roddimus Prime February-21st-2006 02:56 PM

yikes...i hate broken studs on stuff like that...the heat practically wleds them in there.

mailman just knocked again...no damn alignment tool though !!!

Roddimus Prime February-21st-2006 04:50 PM

man, I hope that clutch holds....it looks kinda "budget". The PP kinda looks used also. I'm gonna hate it if you put everything together and get up on it one time and break it.

macdaddyslomo February-21st-2006 06:53 PM

clutch is an Exedy stage 2...supposed to hold up to 90% over stock, so that should be good for 200lb-ft of torque....pressure plate is def brand new

Roddimus Prime February-21st-2006 07:22 PM

oh ok..maybe it's just the picture.

First I've heard of it, I checked the info thread on the other forum. The event coincides with the first day of my summer vacation, so I'd say it's highly likely I will go.

macdaddyslomo February-21st-2006 08:44 PM

I'm will definitely have my install complete and running by then...

Looks good, seems like this project is coming together excellently! Good luck with everything!
