Mid Atlantic meet at Andy's

crazyasian · 05-25-2008

heres some pics i took in between working on Andy's car and taking a burger/brot break. pretty much just worked on Andy's car to get everything fixed, installed, and running. it took us pretty much 12hrs to get everything buttoned up and running smooth. anyways enough talk here some pics:

Edwin's(Skipbarber) car on left, my car i borrowed from sister, and Rob(robclark) car on the right.

Paul(bomerman19) at bottom, Paul's buddy Chris? on left, and Andy on the right.

look at that gigantic turbo

Old turbo vs new turbo

Rob workin on putting sway bar in

Everything all in and ready for a start

Car wasnt running but some how got a shot of the turbo that looks like its spinning

another shot of the bad boy engine

thats it....wasnt a huge turn out but still was a blast and tiring.

wow crazy lol.

12 hrs? We started at like 1230 when paul showed up and we were bleeding the coolant system around 9. Not bad timing for removing the head, replaciing the gasket, putting in a new tensioner and timing belt, running coolant lines for the turbo, iinstalling it with the new downpipe, replacing radiator hoses...anything else I forget?

It was a good time though, I appreciate everybody's help.

I was wondering what you were planning on doing with those pics, lol.

crazyasian · 05-25-2008

yea forgot a few......had to fix motor mount placement, puttin those damn fittings on the hose that took forever, some other hose placement, hacking your plate/bracket for the alternator tensioner.

nice, I wish I could get that done to my car! Maybe one day. I like that turbo manifold you got there andy. Bigger turbo looks good too. shiner!

chkolny · 05-26-2008

wow that turbo is almost unnecessarily large

bomerman19 · 05-26-2008

it was a decent tech meet kinda wish I had gotten a chance to put my stage 3 cam on but I'll probably mess with that later today. That turbo and down pipe are pretty sweet. Can't wait for the tune!

WgnrNick · 05-26-2008

Wow! You guys got a fair amount of work done. Also, holy turbo.
