Finally got to starting up my beast tonight after getting everything hooked up......clang clang clang clang! WTF!?%#$#$$^#%^@$#%$ Pissed off I was going to just go back to stock and say to hell with it.....but I should just aswell go for broke and figure out wtf is going on here....so anyway I had modified my oil separator and the new one was a little longer than the old and was hitting......is that a good thing?..NO!...so anyway modify it, change out the oil and oil filter, fill the coolant again!

Now runs like a top, well at idle, until I get it tuned :D I'll post some pics in here on the install, not pics after the second install, they don't look so pretty and clean.... :rolleyes:


Quick Specs:
T25 Turbo .48/.49 Trim w/ Internal Wastegate
Piping: 3" Maf to Inlet, Rest of piping 2"
Intercooler (36x8x3)Approx.

nice thanks, this is what i was looking to see..my intercooler is not as wide so i might go through the loop behind the a/c rad hose (the metal one)

wanted to see if you had a wider bend to clear that rad hose coming from behind, the big rubber one

yeah, i agree, looks good
ZX3T gone..
