What did you do today to your 3/S?

My engine is out luckily

I swear someone that got the rear fit it up, and said the only issue was the stock oil return line. Hmmm, I am disappointed to say the least.

Mark did you post on the other site, or call him?

Drove it to Monroe WI... Softend the coils for GF and 2 year old.... Also go it washed for the first time since i moved.

Turbos in place!!

That's how they will be under the hood / in the engine bay?

I really dont want to start grinding down the rear motormount. The rear stock manifold flows equally as good as the gtech one I am pretty sure plus the stock one will seal better with the heat o ring. I tried! DoI get a trophy now for participating?

Pull the mount and install the manifold otherwise your going to be required to grind down the motor mount. It fits, direct bolt on with motor mount removed and reinstalled. You're lazy. Every aftermarket manifold kit on the market requires the rear motor mount to be ground down to install if you don't remove it... 3sx, IPS, DR, all of them.

They'll sit just like that, but with the front turbo's turbine housing clocked to the opposite direction.

JP, your car is so much more badass than mine and it isn't even whole LOL

Let's see...

The car has been running off the battery only since late Wednesday of this week (08/22/2012). Charged the battery nightly and ran no accessories during the day to get to and from work until Saturday. Let's see... GA in August + no A/C = That sucked!

Replaced alternator with NAPA lifetime warranty alternator and replaced with belt with a NAPA lifetime warranty belt. Voltage is now up where it should be instead of running solely off the battery.

To reward her for not stranding me on the side of the road I gave her a bath for the first time in recent memory. I'm probably going to snap some pics, because I forgot how good my car looks when it's clean. Swapping the alternator is not that big of a deal. It was actually kind of fun. I haven't had to dive that deep in to the car in a long, long time. Trying to figure out when to install my LCD Boost Controller and Euro flashable '99 ECU.

And I still can't get the god forsaken O² sensors out. It's been like 6 years of PB Blaster and failed attempts.
