Well Guys its been way to long since my last posting.

After over a 100 days in the shop the "Tibur 1" is back on the road and breathing much differently!

It is boosted to 8lbs for now and soon will go on a Dyno to reach at least 12lbs boost.....smile.gif

Congrats Bro, I just got turboed too about 5 days ago, we have a very similar setup! what kind and size injectors you have, pump, stand alone or piggy back?

Mine took about 2 weeks at the shop but I still have to take it back this week for some more parts.

I completely glanced over that. I didn't realize that was an AEM sticker til you mentioned it. I was too busy seeing the Red, Blue, Yellow all over the engine bay.

I'm interested in seeing the piping on the cold side coming out of the intercooler - how it's connected. The tubing usually goes under the battery

I'm using 440 cc Mustang green tops for the injectors, OEM fuel pump, and an AEM F/IC piggy back setup!!! ftw.gif

Stock fuel pump????? Then how are you boosting 8lbs? That's about 200whp which the stock pump is not capable of.
