um ya its going boost, but LET ME GET THE CAR TO START FIRST! damn calm down people, boost is no good without a RUNNING motor.

I have the charge Pipes and i have the Turbo And i have the intercooler Mounted, i should have the manifold mounted tomorrow, but chill out i just got the motor in and im kinda bumed that it didnt start.

as for paint on the radiator, yes its regular paint, but its only a light coat on the front layer of the fins. i did look for that "special radiator paint" and did not find anything.
