Default Finally boosted my 245 over the weekend... Yee HAAA

This has been a slow parts gathering process. It all started from getting a turbo exhaust manifold from George (v8volvo) over a year ago. Then after a marriage, second kid, job and some other life stuff I got the heart of a turbo transplant, the actual turbo from (anders) a few months ago. I also got one of his fancy D24 modified pans which fits like a glove btw. I then dropped the turbo off at my dads shop so that he could just clean it up for me and well lets just say he went a little further than cleaning it up.

Here are some details.

Turbo got a rebuild from Gopopshop
Turbo got balanced at a local shop
Intake got smoothed and powder coated red
Turbo got a 2.5 inch to 3.0 inch vband exhaust adapter
Full 3 inch exhaust NO muffler
The sensor connection digital EGT gauge
EBAY special $7 30psi boost gauge plugged and tapped to the back of the intake
