Unless you drove by my house and peeked in my garage to see my dust covered car sitting on jackstands, that's the only way you would have seen it. I live about 3 hours east of pittsburgh.
haha... nevermind then. I saw a Green NB with hardtop, and intercooler, and remembered your car on here, and location.

When I first stumbled upon it I thought it was going to be a funny video to share on here, but yeah, turned out to be pretty good. Would have actually been useful to watch this before I dug into my own
I been reading and reading for months now in order to start my first turbo build. After watching this I finally bought my MS and will be getting a WB02 soon. This video finally pushed me to get the ball rollin. Being a noob and all Ive read the ms manual about 10 times and plan on getting high grade hardware for my build(FM,Begi). I really like how that was one of the things turbo yoda addresses in this vid about staying away from ebay parts for turbo builds. Which is funny cause their always seems to be someone asking about OBX this? and Megan that? for headers and downpipes and turbos. When they finish this turbo build we should make it a Sticky haha
I am not a fan of where they put the IAT sensor or the wideband. The IAT will heat soak and the wideband looked like it was right after the cat which is a horrible place to put it. Everything else they did was great though.
Yeah the IAT should have been right after the intercooler. I noticed that too. I also noticed they must have read instructions cause thats were the Megasquirt installation manual has it marked.
