Lipstick on a Pig

[Sentry]

I think you see where I'm going with this

[brucebanner]

All of your builds make me happy.

I'll be watching this one too.

[vengie]

Needs banana for scale.

[ThePenIsMightier]

Needs bacon for scale.

[JfuckinC]

More like a tongue ring, but eager to see where it goes as per usual haha

[B.Spilner]

Spit on it and jam it in there.

Okay results are in.
206rwhp 248ftlbs bone stock straight from the auction
220rwhp 276ftlbs muffler delete and quick tune




Longer graph on the tuned chart because I was able to lock the trans in 3rd with hptuners

Not quite turbo minivan quality burnout, but I'm sure its coming.

Double the horsepower ought to help it

Knew that spot looked familiar.

Should be a fun project!

My buddy has a set of widened and narrow Interceptor wheels we don’t need. Not sure if they’ll fit out back but they may work if you’re interested…the rears have ET Street Rs with a decent amount of tread too.

Following.

The title "lipstick on a pig" reminds me of when shak put a new muffler on his charger.

This is much cooler

Sounds awesome, I may take you up on those once I have it making some horsepower and I'm ready to buy tires.

Started exhaust fab today. Turbo location will be approximately here, ABS unit and PCM just shoved out of the way for now. Will build relocation brackets later. The turd of an air filter is just a dummy one I use to make sure I leave myself enough room when fabbing.


Got my Y pipe all done today, I squashed the parts of tube that run under the car for more ground clearance.

And underneath at ride height.

Awesome work, as always.

Busy weekend. Got up pipe done, bracketed, and heat wrapped.


Did oil lines, feed was easy, there was a spare port on the filter housing. Return I punched a hole in the pan and welded some tube on. On a customer car I use AN fittings and braided hose but on mine I just use rubber hose because I am a cheap ass and it works fine lol.



Finished downpipe today as well but ran out of heat wrap, so that'll come next weekend.


Turbo's on for good. Still need to build brackets for ABS unit but it's gonna sit approximately there, wrapped some heat protection on the lines.


Startup vid before I built the downpipe
