..an no they are not those kind of pics, sorry
alright where should i start- last time most of you heard from me i was snowmobilin a lot and had purchased a turbo kit for my cav. that following week i had started an finished the install by friday and started it up for the first time... idled perfect, revv'ed up fine.. took her for a drive, boost was acting a bit screwy but i held off from looking at it until i had the exhuast made the following week.. got the 2.5" mandrel turbo-back exhuast installed an completely welded on an drove it home.. boost was still acting screwy, the wastegate was randomly stayin open or closed whenever it wanted to so i jus drove it slow till i got back to my shop.. to make a long story short, the wastegate was no good so i picked up a new tial 38mm wastegate(thanks carboncav04), threw it on.. and wa-la, holds boost fine around 7-8psi and gets up a lot quicker than my s/c did, or from wat it seems.. so anywho, enuff of me rambling an onto the pics.. weathers been screwy around here so dont mind it being dirty an oh yea- no more fog lites for obvious reasons
got a pair if anyone wants 'em..
mm so stock looking
an yes its sitting like a truck for a couple reasons, one being snow, two- i had to drive up an down a flatbed with it a few times.. hope you enjoyed

Glad you love the snail

Wow that looks absolutely amazing. Very clean kit.
I am lovin the lack of wiring visible, and the charge pipes look good too.
Going to do anything different with the idi cover?
Way to go Marc and welcome to the dark side.
You dirty dirty picture putter upper...
Nice looking set up, Marc.
Just had mine ride inspected - can you believe it failed for emissions? ha-ha might be because it has no cat... and a check engine light for a FPR vac issue..... doh.
Catch up with me this weekend - if its not snowing!!
Check out my Part Out List!! Great Prices !!

i like the looks of that manifold better
and i bet you really wouldnt notice a difference between that intake and the ho
kinda sucks you had to loose your driving lights , i hated that when i had a turbo on my 97 , lol
looks good though
mmmmm that is awesome...
ill send u a pm about those fogs
So is that manifold working out for you, I have heard it works well for turbo applications. Car looks awesome, must be nice to have a quick stock sounding car. What muffler is that, not stock of course. If anyone wants an Intake Mani like his I have one for cheap FYI.
Car kicks ass, even WO the blower.

I love your car man!
I just put full 2.5in exhaust on my GM S/C car and it makes me want to ditch the S/C ASAP and put a turbo in the mix.
Did you find that switching was very difficult? Were there any issues that arose from being previously S/C'd? or would you say it made the process easier?
Hows the power compared to the S/C? I've been flirting with the idea of going turbo for some time now, just need input from someone who had already done it. Thanks in advance.
