CLEAN install Corey, it looks great man!

 

great work corey! it looks awesome! i like to see people take their time on a build like that. I also like that charge pipe color!

 

Super nice install !
Care to share those coolant mod specs? Nice work man.

 

Thanks man, it is a 10 footer right now, i have a lot of clean up todo under the hood, mainly some wiring...

BTW, i am loving the converter you speced for me! it is great in boost it does not push past it at all, and it loads the turbo very well!

Thanks yeah, the color is pretty cool but it sucks because you don't see any of it... oh well i know it is painted

 

sure here you go

mixture of -4 and -6 pushloc, i got the steam vent adapters from ebay

Looking good man.

 

I like how you did the install. On mine though I mounted the intercooler directly under the crossbar. I had to get longer bolts from HD though.

And you're Able to control it at eight PSI with the 40 mm wastegate?

 

I believe i have a 50mm wastegate. Boost is very controllable. It never goes past 8psi and with various throttle positions i can run lower boost. .

 

Do you have the fuel feed going to the regulator first then to the rails?
