next friday or the friday after next muahahha

EDIT: sorry i had to say it

How much increased snatch should one expect with this kit?

That should always be a major consideration with any modification.

massive amounts. it's the biggest selling point of course.

i opted for wrapping the header and leaving the downpipe bare (it's pretty).

Many snatch with 35r, much jetnoise, such wow

I want to hear this Jet

Imagine a 747 taking off about 12 inches away from your face. Then double that.

Seriously though he was behind me driving and I could still hear it over my exhaust. It's badass.

Wow, going to look up 35 prices haha. I love that noise.

Are you allowed to shows some pictures of the completed overall layout etc...?

the pics i have are all of the old piping setup, which has since been revised. the last pipe is actually away getting powdercoated right now (i waited forever to send it back to them). once i get it back i'll snap some shots. i'm going to have the bumper off as well so i'll get some shots of the intercooler and all that while i'm at it.

the build pics are in the announcement thread, which was made a while back.

thanks @Sportsguy83, it really just comes down to how thick is the casting at that point. I just did a test on a spare cast elbow and I don't think its enough, so I will probably weld in a NPT bung.

Many racecar. One jetcar.

No pics no care ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

ill make a pass with the go pro tonight #jetcarengage

i need some logs anyway :)

I agree. I remember the pics from the RevWorks development thread, but lets get some nice detailed pics of your kit @jamesm.

I should have the last pipe back today (with the new layout). I'll take some pics and post them up when i get it back together, hopefully this evening.

Is it jus simply drilling it in or should i talk to Andres about doin mine?

You need to drill and tap it and then use some teflon tape/paste to make sure it is sealed. The question is whether or not the material is thick enough to get enough threads to get a good seal.

you have to pull the compressor housing off, drill and tap for the npt fitting (tapered thread). i'd talk to andres.

If you drill/tap the end of the housing I think you could take the coupler off and shove a paper towel in there and then use some grease on the bit/tap to minimize metal shavings.

that's possible... but no way in hell i'd try lol

The housings come right off, why not remove it.

I agree with this. 6 bolts, 2 couplers and no risk v/s Oops $2k turbo

i'm not ashamed to admit i was intimidated by those six bolts :)

I'm intimidated by a $2k turbo

dont forget the dollar sign thats important and ultimately what Im intimidated by

Depending on the pipe routing of your kit it might not be that easy. I know removing the intake off the GT2871R in my Full Blown kit was a pain in the ass without pulling the bumper. I was not intimidated by those 6 bolts, haha.

yeah I can see what you mean on that kit.

i was more intimidated by the idea of getting everything clocked and lined back up just right... and also that nice pretty billet wheel getting all mangled by my uncoordinated ass trying to jam it all back together.

james its just metal

jet sounds inc..


gopro batteries charge is so slow..

grab me a couple logs while you're at it... ;)

Hey the people demand video, your logs can wait!

j/k for real though

k youtube processing

Thats awesome, I guess I could sell my radio to make up some of that cost. Wouldn't have to listen to anything else.

the dyno video should be fun, no wind buffeting to drown out the sweet noise

Just put the camera in the engine bay

Tomorrow, I leave the suspense to build up while I sleep

I wasn't serious but if you want to I'll watch it, haha
