LB7: s475 over stock build
- Thread starter danzick
- Start date
actually looks like a kit now. Made sure everything fit ok, took it back off to get powder coated. Hoping to see the parts back from powder coating friday night. I also welded in a bung for my total boost value. Now, with my parts headed to get coated I'm onto the oil lines. Put it off until last because IM really not looking forward to removing my starter and drilling a large hole in my oil pan.
I did weld in a bung for a second boost gauge for the atmosphere charger. Im not going to get super technical right away. More wondering if I should pull my PPE boost increase valve out right now. I dont want to run crazy boost and lift the head or bend a rod.
this is kinda the color I decided to go with. Its a two tone. Has a couple different colors in it to make this color. Hoping it looks pretty unique for a twins kit.
down pipe is done. should be heading to get my parts this evening. I would take it on a test run tonight but I shorted myself an oil line fitting 
Really hope to see that At the post office tomorrow morning to finish that up.

I didnt do any bends. it was all just random bends I welded together. I have to kit pretty much done, I will work on a write up on what pieces and parts I needed.
got my parts. Love the color. Looks red in the shade,and in the sun it has a sparkly burnt orange color.
Looks great. Make sure to post your final cost. Love the color. What did you do for the maf sensor? Did you make your own mount or did you find a weld in?
Awesome job man. Looks great. So when are you going into business again?

getting it all put together. I cant wait to get this thing started up. Yes, I ordered a weld in MAF sensor bung from PPE. worked great. Its on the 5 inch elbow.
Thanks! I enjoy fab work. I also built my own front bumper too. Yes the PPE block makes it easy. Kinda spendy tho for such a small chunk of AL.
Freakin awesome bro. Glad to see it coming along so well. I'm still waiting on my twins to show up. Now I'm tempted to take the tuning in for powdercoating.
Yes... I think I'm gonna try and find a good deal on a used factory one here in awhile and cut it down and build a full 3 inch one. Future plans tho. I'm mainly focused on getting it going.
thanks. Unfortunately, my oil fittings wont be here until monday, and I see my AFE filter didnt show up after the AFE guy assured me the latest I would see it would be friday. Looks like monday night is the soonest She will be running. Im going to get it all put together and ready to just slap the lines on.
