Finally a turbo in my life! My JDM GT Limited

[akito]

Nice progress, Idk why I didn't do this to my manifold last year when it was out. Should have done it so it doesn't look like it's all rusted lol

and painted the manifold to a much better colour

haha thanks dude, its definitely worth it! I cant stand that odd rusty look it usually comes with, should give it a shot some time

No way i'm going remove my turbo plus a bunch of shit to just paint my manifold now. I did manage to pain my manifold heatshield black so that's something LOL. Too bad i can't fit the front heat shield because the SP61 is way bigger than the stock ct26 thus I can't fit the heat shield anymore
