Feels good to hit boost again

Well im horrible unhappy with the customer service from Precision im gettin about my turbo . Go-Autoworks was supposed to have my Precision turbo drop shipped from the Precision warehouse. I paid for 2-3 day shipping expecting to get my vacuum manifold and turbo etc all at the same time, nice and quick. After playing phone tag with with Go-Autoworks, whos playing phone tag with Precision.. we finally find out Precision had my turbine on back order and failed to inform anyone and that today they "should" be assembling and shipping the turbo out today... a WEEK after i ordered it.

More updates when i hear from them.

In my downtime im starting to do a wire tuck. I finished pulling out the harness for the drivers side and im gonna create two seperate harness's to run through the fender. Ive always enjoyed wiring shit.

 

[TurboRex90]

Driver side tuck complete. Took about 4+ hours figuring out where to run wires ad soldering 20+ connections. Just gotta clean up alittle and put some pieces back together.

nice work! i have been thinking about tidying up my bay as well. im just having trouble finding the motivation to do it

 

[TurboRex90]

Ya it takes alot of motivation. Thats jut the driver side, wondering if i should even attempt the passenger side.

 

[TurboRex90]

FINALLY. After a day of phone tag with FedEx, Precision, and Go-AutoWorks, overnight shipping and driving 2 hours to the FedEx facility.. Its here.

Leaking oil from the feed line, need a new gasket and maybe a new restricter plate. But she runs again.

Yes, i had to drive an hour home. I was too excited to not open the box. Hahah.

 

[awptickes]

So, where did you have to drive? The facility on Golden Ring Road? I was there at like 4pm today shipping some stuff from work, and picking up a package.

 

[TurboRex90]

Ill take better pics tomorrow, but all in all she runs and i have a nice cut and burn to show for it.

Oh and can an admin change this tread name, its turned from a "hey look what i did" to a build thread. Change it to "Turborex's EG build"

Thanks!

 

[TurboRex90]

Nah i had to drive to Hagerstown, rather then lithicum because whoever shipped my packaged screwed up one number of my zip code and it wouldnt have arrived til tomorrow afternoon.

Thanks man!

Forgot to update on the cleaner side of the engine bay from the tuck. Still wanna clean it all off but less clutter now

I need to get a thicker gauge wire and tuck the other side alittle... Nothing serious, just the headlight/corned light wires look way to jumbled.

 

[TurboRex90]

Just need my downpipe tweaked some more. Having fitment issues against the block.

Just need my dp tweaked some more. Having fitment issues.

:super:

I just had to point that out

 

[TurboRex90]

Hahaha, damnit, i have to rephrase that now.

 

[TurboRex90]

ARG, well i was in my brothers scion today and got rear ended at a stop light by an old guy doing 50mph. Scion is totaled, and im banged up. Im gettin a new iphone 4 because it got shattered in the accident, and i should be hearing from his insurance about a nice settlement for the horrible whiplash and injuries on top of replacing my brothers car.

Aside from that, i need a whole new downpipe made, turns out with the new manifold and turbo, the Downpipe smacks right into the block close to the flange and the welds are so tight you can cut and reweld the flange.

Ill update as i hear.

 

[double0Si]

Damn man that blows. Glad to see you're at least good enough to post. 50mph hit is crazy!
