Heard about tec, well actually read about them...and also read exactly what you just said...hence when the time comes I will just go with the lc eng kit. I'll probably do head studs and better HG when the time comes for that and maybe a intercooler. My friend gave me his stock one from his Subaru legacy but I don't think I can use it because it only has an outlet one one side for a piping to hook too. The other end requires some bolt on flange type deal.

Ordered a HKS turbo timer and harness kit and got it installed. Install was easy and I didn't have to cut any wires, only had to tap into the one parking brake wire. It fit perfect in the one recess area of the dash.





I also got the new wide band sensor and hooked the gauge back up

While I was wrenching I also yanked the dash and change all the bulbs to red like my 4runner



My cone filter set up will be here Tuesday

I am extremely pleased with it. I got it from a seller off eBay that had the timer and the harness for i think 90$ free shipping. It has 2 adjustable time settings and it displays the trucks voltage which I guess is cool. The install factor was probably the best part, it was extremely simple and plug and play. It also fits so nicely in the dash recess that it seems like it was meant to be.

Speekig of eBay, look what I scored to today

A normally 600$+ turbonetics manifold with a 3" dp

Now I just gotta save for the t3/t4 and associated parts

I got the type 0 I couldn't justify the extra 50$ for those few extra features, here is where I got mine from, free shipping with harness included for a 100$ (little more then I originally posted)

For an east coast rig, that thing is in AMAZING shape. Defiantly a keeper.

I hate you... Awesome rig

What is that orange thing you so quickly hid under that cover? Based off the tail lights and lic plate, I'm guessing an 08 Challenger?

Sweet rides..
