    DIY Divorced Down pipe 7mgte DDP. What metal alloys do I use?

    I debated doing this, but from what i read, the only real difference you get it just more sound. the HP numbers don't seem enough for me to put in that effort.

    DIY Divorced Down pipe 7mgte DDP. What metal alloys do I use?

    Buy an ebay recirculating divorced, have a shop weld a divider in it where the exhaust port and wastegate are... then just cut open the wastegate down tube and weld shut the exhaust side.

    head gasket question

    Understandable. Now, as for getting the block perfect, this means level(which I should be able to determine with feeler gauges and straight edge, my dads a machinest so I can get these) and then, just no residue left over from the prior gasket/corrosion(if the gasket had gone). I think I'll just...

    head gasket question

    I am looking for some direction to find where I can buy a specific one.. I don't plan to go Metal.. but I heard there is a newer OEM style that has rubber or something incorporated with it, that's suppose to be a fairly good gasket. I've searched and searched, but can't seem to find this one...

    Coolant leak...lost on where. Help!

    Surprisingly, pressure test revieled the hose coming from the back of the head being the culprit. Well so far. It appears it was spliced near the T. Someone had hose clamped a connector to it so the hose could be connected again. Ordered a new hose. I'm still going to take the intake off, I'll...

    Coolant leak...lost on where. Help!

    I ordered the gasket set. I'm also borrowing a pressure tester tonight. I just hope, if it's even possible, that it's not the head gasket. But if so, then oh well. It was bound to happen.

    Coolant leak...lost on where. Help!

    So I'm probably just best pulling the intake manifold off to say the least. Any specific gaskets needing replacing? Or are some reusable.

    Coolant leak...lost on where. Help!

    Noticed a puddle under my car today..this starting after replacing the radiator I'm assuming, because prior the top hose would never get pressure. Now it's firm. But anyways.. The leak is dripping off the cradle on the drivers side. It looks like it's coming from under the intake manifold...

    HELP!! part identification needed!!

    I need to know the part number for... I'll try to explain. The plastic boot/cap that holds the plug wire to the coil. It's a snap on cap. I broke one. It has been replaced by a zip tie for the time being. Any idea what the part number is, or where I can get a set of them? Or more specifically...

    Rear sun shade/visor

    I know there is a seller on ebay that sells oem replicas.. but they are asking around 200$ for them. There are a ton of others for a fraction of that, for other cars.. Any idea if there is a rear window that's similar in width that would work? I suppose the curvature? or curve of the rear window...
