My cheap upgrades !!

[suprastanger507mgte]

All I wanted to do was clean some oil/dust in some areas in the engine bay and I ended up doing all this > My cheap mods
1st...my glove kept me company

This is my old beat up, squashed, torn, and leaking downpipe I pulled out :

And the old is sitting next to my $20 7MGTE HKS downpipe modified to fit the 1jz > and it fits like a glove.

Here is one K26 Turbo compared to the stocker....the stock turbo housing is so puny compared to the K26.....and two of these will find a new home in the engine bay soon

Stock :

K26:

Then here is my Intercooler I bought from a local guy for $20 Not too bad of a deal

.

Thanks. I am actually making my own setup. These are from a porsche > Picked two of them up for pretty cheap and I think after I get my flanges, they will be fairly easy to make and bolt up.

These are not the Blitz ones.

Ah ok, but still very cool.

Are you planning on making them both Face Forward or are you going to try and Match the Stock Setup?

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

Nice deal Moe!

Yes both will face the same way to keep the piping a bit simple. I need to figur out at what angle and height I want these mounted...
