I was just seeing what it will fit like, that's not even the manifold I'm using. I did manage to get the butterflies in the intake removed and started gasket matching, porting and polishing done this weekend.

Hi all! Yesterday I finished sealing the butterfly holes along with porting and polishing the manifolds! Here's where I sit:

HEY! Any real CA fan puts the mad CA slant on when they take the engine stand shot! Where's my slant at?

Innercooler placement is just about there!

We finished the wiring, got new driveline bolts, new output shaft seal, put the driveline in, added Redline MT90 to the transmission, and put Mobil1 synthetic into the engine.

We also found a turbo Volvo in Pick-N-Pull and yanked the innercooler piping, which ended up fitting nearly perfect.

So I picked up a different GT25 on Sunday, expected a journal bearing, got home and ran the # and it ended up being a GT2560R. Score for $250!!

That's a mega score!

Just have to finish the downpipe now! Did a new paint scheme.

It runs! 3" straight pipe sounds savage.

Well got it running great yesterday, so we loaded it up for a 2 1/2 hour drive to go slide it and ended up having a coil pack go bad. Regardless, when it was running it was insane.
