On my garage floor... :2thumbsup:

I took it last week before I put the pipes up for sale on Probe Talk with the WG, BOV and boost controller.

I am selling it as a kit only sorry man.

I never posted but I was vandalized and my garage broken into. My welder, tube bender, chop saw, all my tools and everything were stolen and I have lost the motivation to keep working on my car. Not to mention the $6000.00 worth of tools and other things stolen from my shop.

Thought about trying to trade the turbo piping and everything for a ZE and just drive it like that but I dont even want to do that anymore. Was really hoping that I could sell the car and EVERYTHING together and just be done with it.


P.S. That woman has some HUGE jugs.......... :2thumbsup:

I used to have a book mark where there was a girl in a white tanktop, and when you moved your mouse on the screen (her hands followed the mouse curser) she would lift up her shirt and a pair would just fall out, huge...... They were wonderful.... :crying:

I cant seem to find it anymore though. :shrug:

It would be nice to have kind of a guide on what size of turbo to go with and how to choose it. :2thumbsup:

That for me is the worst part of it all.

se7en, tell me something ...
will my K8 with some ebay turbo pipes, a regular turbo ( maybe even the ebay turbo ) pulling about 3 or 4 psi , no engine work and a nice FMIC and BOV have about 180 bhp ?
If it doesnt , what parts do i need to change to get there ? or even to 200 bhp ?

couple grand, and lots of time figuring out the fuel management issue....

Megasquirt for the win on that one.
