Dont worry I have taken the next 6 weeks off of work so I will have plenty of time to get it done, Im hoping to make it to a December track event at Sears point.

Damn Californians and your December track days, we'd probably need spiked tires for a track day here in the PNW.

Gotpsi? 11-27-2009 10:34 PM

Just found out that its full up so I will have to wait till January. We have track events all year. I think, no Im sure Ive done more events during the winter than in the summer.

Gotpsi? 11-28-2009 11:10 AM

I guess I could work on that, I have not been back out in the garage since I ran out of strait tube.

Yeah but if it's like those motorcyles that do spiked tire ice racing that would be cool!

Would love to see the collector pen shots.

Gotpsi? 11-28-2009 09:18 PM

The collector is not totally done yet, the waste gate will be on the top of it, Ill get some more pics then.

Gotpsi? 12-01-2009 05:45 PM

Well I got some time to work in the garage today! heres what I got so far. [IMG]http://i391.photobucket.com/albums/o...Truax/man5.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i391.photobucket.com/albums/o...Truax/man6.jpg[/IMG] sorry for the crappy pics all I have is my phone right now. :facepalm:

18psi 12-01-2009 05:49 PM

Looks damn good man.

One issue I see (and you probably already know this) is its quite a bit far away from the engine. Won't it hit/interfere with the frame of the car? The rail is right there, making all bottom mounts have to be placed REAL close to the engine block to not hit the rail.

Gotpsi? 12-01-2009 05:51 PM

I think I will get the waste gate put on tonight and get some pics up with it on the head in the car w/turbo.

wayne_curr 12-01-2009 07:57 PM

i'm with 18psi, looks like its going to be VERY close to the frame rail if not hitting it.

Gotpsi? 12-01-2009 09:13 PM

Actually it has room on the frame, I hugged it right to the block Ill get some pics up soon, it takes up all the space available between the engine and the frame, getting the spacing right was a pain I have to re make my runners 3 times but it fits well now.

18psi 12-01-2009 09:15 PM

Is there enough room to allow for at least a little engine movement?
