    pics of my revised turbo setup, and a video!

    hey guys, so lat night i decided to change my setup a bit, because the car was running ****ty, and was pissing me off, so i changed where my MAF is, and changed the routing of some piping, i also swapped in my new FMU, which is wayyyyy better then the vortec i had, so i took some pics, im still running the 2.5 inch piping right now, this weekend ill be changing to 2 inch piping, and my new intercooler, so this was just for testing purposes only, and let me tell you its twice the car it was, no more stalling, no more stumbling, im real happy.

        I thought my engine bay was dirty, but it still looks good.

          How big is the file? I can host it if it's reasonably sized

          if it'll fit in an e-mail, send it to dreesemonkey at gmaildotcom

            looks good. Where was your MAF before?

              Nice work Ben. A very neat layout and it looks good. Glad you were able to eliminate those problems. Looking forward to seeing your new intercooler installation.

                            so the VAF can be put between the turbo and the intake mani? I have seen this done a few times, but I had always heard that it didnt work too well..... but it seems to have cleared up your idle/stalling issues..... something else to think about I guess.
