Thats cool, post your proccess, I'll be starting my 5sgte in a month or so!!!

tstoney82 · 06-13-2009, 10:39 PM

will do. as soon as it comes in the mail i will be taking pics and making daily records of my progress. i may wait until the paint is done before i start it, but hell, im thinking i should do it before the paint. the car is primed right now, just thinking of color options.

killermillermr2 · 06-13-2009, 11:05 PM

will do, Should be starting my deuce sometime this week, and will post update on my 5sfte thread..

tstoney82 · 06-14-2009, 09:44 PM

since ive decided to go turbo ive been wondering about the exhaust. since the 5sfe sits more at an angle than the 3sgte, i was wondering if a turbo exhaust would bolt right up or if i would have to make a custom exhaust. have you guys had any experience with that yet?

328FTW · 06-15-2009, 01:33 AM

I have been doing a turbo setup since it seems forever now I just haven't made a thread because it would be a lonely thread that gets little attention. The holidays are coming up and I had the adapter organised to be pro welded rather than me-welded so things might start to happen. Not a 5s though a 3s on a $0 budget

killermillermr2 · 06-15-2009, 01:47 AM

I run the stock exhaust to the end of the cat(manni,turbo,DP/cat). then I bolted up a blitz nur spec. so aftermarket/stock turbo exhausts will work.

tstoney82 · 06-15-2009, 04:03 PM

good because i have an apexi n1 laying around from a 2 i had years ago that i just found

killermillermr2 · 06-15-2009, 11:02 PM

it should work. all the mounts are in the same place from NA to turbo. what are you using for manni and down pipe?
