Uhh-ohhhhh!!

[turbo83coupe]

Come n get it!! ;) :jump:

[Martin0660]

Bolt in my Ass. There isnt a pipe in that "kit" we didn't cut, modify, or otherwise re-do. I think the end result was worth it.

It better go 12's or we are going to strip my car for parts :D

[Inkdcountryboy]

Nicee.. now time for the 5.0 transplant in the notch buddy

[Rodeheaver's]

lookin good.

[turbo83coupe]

Thanks all, and Thanks to Bob for the welding help tonight ;)

Just waiting on a few things (couplers, t bolts...) in the mail, and the final welds to be done, and probably have them powder coated :D

I am happy with how it is turning out as well!! It well be nice to have a NICE solid intercooler on the car than is not jb wleded, bolted, full of holes, and falling apart!! I know this will fix a shit ton of vacuum leaks and lost power!! lol

Hey now ... That intercooler repair was some of the finest backyard engineering done in a while :D

Frank blew up the little FMS intercooler (end tanks) so we JB welded the tanks on and built a tie rod system to hold it together. Worked okay for awhile ;)

[yeahloh95]

looks good hows it run?

[Martin0660]

hows it run?

it's still slow :rofl::rofl::rofl:

[turbo83coupe]

Bob- that intercooler has no shame!! Its been through allot!! lol

Troy- SLOW!! lol honestly, idk yet. Its still being "mocked up". Had to order some more t bolts, couplers, and I have to have the tubing completely welded together. The tubes are finally fitted to where they need to be, and believe you me- that was no easy task, and that stinger kit was in no way shape or form "bolt on"!!

[turbo83coupe]

it's still slow :rofl::rofl::rofl:


Fuuck you beat me to it :rofl::rofl::rotflol::rotflol::highfive:

[1Badbird]

I got some help form some friends today, and got the pipes bead rolled, got them back on tonight and I drove it for about an hour poundin the piss outta it and it ran perfect!! Looks as if test n tune is a go tomorrow. Maybe even might get it inspected in the morning ;)

WTF frank....whatd u break...and why didnt you just call me?

[turbo83coupe]

Well..... I guess I should give some explanantion after that lol I will start off by saying, in some warped sort of way, I consider this night a success!! I accomplished three good things. I FINALLY broke in the 100 MPH club, new personal bast, and joined Bob Myers School of Hard On Parts!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA its never a bad night when you can get out of the car laughing after ya broke it I guess...
Enough of that. Car went a new best of 13.4@100.4 with not that great of a 60. Dont got the slip in front of my face, but it was in the 1.86 range? I launched off the rev limiter (6250) on the Hoosiers at 12.5# of air. I ended up actually dead hooking and bye bye 8.8!! hahahahahahahaha O well, bild it better for next time, right....?
Thanks to all who helped me tonight in every way, I really appriciate it!!

[turbo83coupe]

And o.... Just for reference, that 8.8 was out of Bobs old TurboCoupe that had around 160 passes on it the last year he had it nto to mention all the hard street miles he put on it, and then its been in my car for about 4 or 5 years now doin the same shit!! It had ZERO shame!!

[Inkdcountryboy]

Congrats for the new best and sorry about the rear.....if your not busy tomorrow night Stop out at the shop ill show ya all my 8.8 goodies! lol im gonna be painting my trailer and changing my brakes...and chilling out you know how we roll! lol im gonna paint the 8.8 tomorrow i think too since ill already be painting.

[1Badbird]

You know he was worthless after the conversation took that turn. I though we was going to have ot replace him with an electric motor.

Frank got this fancy phone that he was bragging would work in the shower. I told him if he ever called me from there I wouldnt talk to him again. Add this to that list.
