I bite my nails in anticipation everytime i check this thread, which has been like once a day for the past month or so. I'm very eager to see some final pics I guess is what I want to say, but still patient. I have one of the unfinished pics as my wallpaper, hehe. I know that it's so close know that I can barely stand it and I know I dont have anything constructive to add, but a turbo legend brings a tear to my eye.

Deathread you now have pics in your e-mail box! Is anyone getting these? The size is 4.41mb for 8 pics.

Thanks, Kyle
I have hotmail so I can only get 1mb pics. I know you don't want to send them all individually so I'll wait till someone posts them. I am not doubting you at all. Thanks for trying dude! :)
 
thats too big, send 2 or 3 pics to different ppl, i hope to see some in my in-box, peace
 
Alrite everyone calm down, I got the pictures, but I have to wait to get off of work to convert/resize/host then post them because too many people are using the bandwidth right now.

I promise, no later then 12:00 A.M. Pacific Time will the pics be up.

Now lets see some dyno's and track vids

oh yea, 1 question... why didnt they move your battery to the trunk for extra space?
 
I'd never thought I would see this day. :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

Props to you and your Labrat crew. I hope a kit will be readily available in the near future.

I am a little torn on this, on one hand it's cool to see a Legend get turbo'd, but...that is one of the worst looking turbo installs I have ever seen. :vomit:

I don't understand how a shop could pull off getting it all together in what seems a mostly acceptable manner, but the easiest part of it all has been rigged up the worst. The FMIC install is pathetic. Don't take it personal, send that directly to your tuner shop. They should be ashamed of that FMIC install.
Get a proper fitting FMIC and run the charge tubes thru the old air intake and windshield washer resevoir openings in the frame rail. For god's sake, is your car even lowered??

Anyways, it just looks like the shop that did your car takes no pride in their work. I think you can make it look much better.

I agree with Takemorepills, it looks really sloppy, I'm glad it got done...but man does it look nasty...dirty...basically...like I said, sloppy.
:werd: they could ATLEAST cut the front bumper a lil cleaner.
like, takemorepill said, dont take these comments personal. were sayin this to your turner shop that did the work.

i do give you credits for acualy stepping foward and turboing our car.
 
Yeah, thats another thing I noticed...they must have cut the bumper with a butcher knife? lol

just as Smartjay said, dont take it personally, but really could have done a better job...by the way Labrat...why did they cut the bumper? the bumper wont fit there with the cooler in the way? is there any way to keep the bumper without having to cut it?
 
Yeah, that bumper is gross, but I didnt say anything cause i mean you just got it back and who's to say you already dont have something planned for it, and we were all anxious to see pics, so you were nice enough to put some up anyways maybe knowing that you werent completely finished with the front. But if you are finished, take a saw to it and smooth it out. Cut off those weird sharp angles. I would have just cut it straight down. Or, just get a newer 94-95 bumper and cut it right. I was thinking that it looks as if the IC might fit behind the 94-95 bumper with less "modification". I was wondering about the old air pathway myself. But i'm not familiar with the backside of the 91-93 style bumper. I want to see a pic from the front that is straight on, cause in both pics from the front, the IC looks a little crooked. Is it? Like I said, a direct pic from the dead-on front would be cool. Either way though, I would hack at that already hacked bumper to try to get it looking more "flowing", for lack of a better word. Of course assuming you didnt already have an idea for it.

the only way of havint the bumper w/o cutting is by using a smaller ic.
