Well FINALLY ordered my KINGS Performance V2 manifold and will be getting a custom downpipe made in a few weeks hopefully. Only thing I am wondering what to do is running the dump tube. There is like no room to route it.

I also ended up just ordering the whole Full Blown Fuel setup with Dual 340s and Full Blown Catch Can.

Also decided just to keep the ptuning pipes and mode them to fit my setup. Should be pretty easy.

I am curious why it was too big, I am running the pro street manifold with a precisions 6266 ball bearing turbo, and mine fit.. It was tight but it fit.. did not know if you just could not get it past the header studs or what? For me I had to tilt the motor in the car to get the turbo and header down in the whole past the studs..

Just wondering?

The borg warners are bigger from what I hear. It wouldn't fit in between the bolt and the frame of the car. I tilted the motor drop it in and everything. Also removed some of the studs. Nothing helped.

Borg Warner turbos have LARGE compressor covers, typically

Soooo worlds slowest turbo build ever here. I finished up running the OIL PSI guage behind the dash. I tried to replicate how The Chazz had his and had talked to him through PM a while back, I don't know know how that guy did it. Its almost impossible to get anything there, but I am happy how it came out so far. It also took me FOREVER to change the manifold studs, but they have been replaced with ARP studs that are a little longer.

Also I wanted to get my timing chain cover powder coated before I put it back in. Any ideas on what color? I was thinking wrinkle red to match the charge pipes and valve cover...or should I just go with black?

Don't feel bad liquid I'm just about to put my motor back in my car after it bein out of service for 5 months. Trust me I know how much it sucks, it should be worth it at the end. Racecar just drives you nuts sometimes but hey it's the price we pay

My vote is for red to match the pipes
