well, still need to get a few things, im shooting for a little over a month from now, trying to deal with the turbo setup, and getting her painted at the same time.

Gotta save up for tuning mostly ( need gauges, guage pod, wideband, tune ) and I have 310cc Injectors but wanna go a bit bigger, so as soon as I get that stuff together Ill be ready to install.

Good to hear. Yea that small 2" to 2.5" reducer is for making the compressor outlet, which if you search for a dsm turbo j-pipe the flange should be the same exact thing. Depending on how you want to mount it and route your charge piping, you may be able to just use some sort of dsm j-pipe if youd like. Ill be sure to let ya know when I get the sc as well

Did you find a reducer coupler for the compressor outlet? If not you could work around it.

Hey Jeff, bring that phantom gauge and the parts to it. I could use a functioning boost gauge and that'll suffice for now.

Yummy!

What size turbine housing is the Super 60? I went from a .48 to a .63 and enjoyed the difference. Just food for though.

It was Iceman Mikes old kit he was peiceing together, but i finished it fo him lol.

Its .48 AR on the turbine side IIRC.. Its a very first boost project, if it gets to be an addiction like everyone seems to get, im sure pieces will be swapped in once the kit is installed and all set up, Ill make changes as needed.. I also have another thread I made right as this one came back from the dead with the other parts that came in.
