I hope you have a decent camcorder or video device, because about 1,000 people are going to hate your guts if you only post a few videos.

 

Looking good Telion!

 

:thumbsup: You getting closer to a completion!!! Nice work I want to see it in the car...

 

Looking great man.

 

Thanks guys I will get shots of it once I get some free time I gotta get the rest of it ready for welding anyway. When it is all don and running I will take pics with my camera phone.

Hey Tilion! Beautiful job. Can't wait to see your Baby monster Legend.
What kind of pipes did you use? Where did you get it?
I just picked up the Garrett T4 Turbocharger, So i have some ideas to do on my car.

 

Thanks, the piping is mostly off of Ebay, Jegs, and Summit Racing. the piping varies a bit I used Weld els for the headers, 16g mild steel for the downpipe, and 16g aluminized pipe for the exhaust. The collectors are hooker, and the Y is all me (and Joe who welded it up).

On a side note the fuse blocks came in today.

 

Ok here are some pics of it in place before I pull the engine, I need to increase my starter and alternator wires and route the VSS plumbing around the drivers side like I should have done the last time it was out. Luckily it is all ready to be yanked as I anticipated this. Well here's the pics.
(sorry to me they are all beginning to look the same)

 

Ok I have re-routed the VSS and Power steering hoses to the drivers side. I honestly should have just done that the first time I said that I was going to do it.

 

wow... cant wait:hitit:

 

just droppin by to remind you to wrap everything when your done... cause thats gonna be a hot one... and since you worked very hard on this project, we can't afford any mistakes now can we?.. i always find a checklist useful

 

Hey Telion! Haven't been on for a while; it doens't suprise me that you are to this point. Just a question out of curiousity; are you worried about the heat from the exhaust on the belt drive or anything? It looks like a really good setup man, congrats.

 

MIKE!~

 

Thanks, To be honest yes, yes I am and in the back of my head I am going through solutions in addition to the jet hot coating but I think it might be ok, guess we'll find out soon enough.

 

Telion,

Great work so far buddy! Glad you went this way instead of a SC. It looks nice and clean. As always you charted nice progress through your progress. Cantm wait to see it run.

Make us proud!
Kyle

 

Thanks Kyle, glad to see you back in the mix, should be more updates on it throughout this week. I am sure you know the required level of patience to not just fire this thing up half ass just to see what it does lol!

 

Ok I have a little update not much though I was able to get more of the exhaust side ready for welding. Once the engine is back in and this portion has been welded up I will be able to complete all of the exhaust work.

looks great! im loving all the mandrel bends :yumyum:

 

Thanks, that took much longer than I thought it would, the first go around was to try to duplicate it out of the car. Then I thought it I could get away with less bends and did it under the car and lol it came out damn near the same.

 

One more pic of the exhaust before it gets sent off to the welder

I'll build you a fine, fine computer if you build me a turbo setup. LOL what else are innovators used for? Bargaining and negotiating! J/K man.. good shit Telion. Took me nearly 2 hours to read every single post.

 

Wow, I don't know if I could go back through all of that lol. but it was (is and has been) a nice learning process

 

+10 cool points for laying out the exhaust inside on the carpet. New and clean or not, its not always easy to convince others that its a good idea:lol:

 

aayyyeeee where the resonator at? :lol: jk.

 

Yeah laying it out on the carpet was the only place where I had enough free space to see the whole thing between cuts and test fittings. wasn't too dirty though.

no resonators here but I still debate with myself about that damn muffler.

 

Nice to hear. I'll be visiting this thread a lot, to get some insight on forced induction, now that I have internet access again. My help is out of state and it'll be a while, maybe late spring or early summer, till I can afford to travel on an exceptional expense rate again.

im looking forward to the finished product after all the kinks are worked out of the system and the motor is fully tuned properly.

This will really change the way our cars as soon as other members install turbo kits on their legends. I mean the legend is a great car, and it holds its own against even new luxury cars in terms of acceleration and performance.

now imagine our cars running around with well tuned turbo setups making lots of power and killing high performance vehicles while reppin the Legend name! Talk about the perfect car! Telion, just take your time man and do it right, and above all things, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THIS CAR TUNED PROPERLY!!!

This im sure will be one of the biggest challenges yet. Good luck with this.

 

Well after this one it will but hang in there.

Thank you to both of you I too hope for this to be part of a game changing push for our cars in the realm of contenders to be respected at the track. And that others are inspired and follow suit in some fashion or another, hence why this build is taking place so openly (that and assistance).

I agree about the tuning and regardless of what it takes (hopefully less than more) she will be tuned and from the looks of it by one the best and most respected Honda Turners in the U.S.

Now for a few more pics that came together from another wonderful person who graciously did the welding for me, Joe Cool :bowdown:

After work I will find out how well (or poor) I lined everything up.
This was quite the challenge to do underneath the car at jack height
with just a couple jacks and a strap to hold it in place as I marked it off

 

I can't wait for the next few updates. Now it's going to get real exciting. :yes:
