now things are starting to get interesting. started doing some shopping, picked up this holset hx35 with a 16 cm housing for an awesome price before i left for washington. this is exactly the one i wanted! hx35 with a 7 blade compressor wheel plus he threw in a spare compressor wheel too! time to take this thing apart, clean her up nice, polish the housing and ceramic coat the exhaust housing!! im not going to run the 16 cm housing however, i wont see the spool i want. so ive been trying really really hard to locate a 12 cm divided holset housing! i think i finally found one but we'll see. otherwise i will be purchasing a custom made .70 ar undived housing from bulls eye performance.

now parts are starting to flow in. did some shopping on driftmotion. with the combination of shopping there and buying some things off locals this is what i got so far:
-50 mm hks knockoff wastegate
-sc300 3 inch downpipe
-4 inch inlet pipe (will be running a velocity stack though)
-550 mk4 injectors (will be buying injector o-ring kit too, so please, dont tell me it would be a good idea to replace those o-rings. i already knw that.)
-1jz divided single turbo manifold. this one is t4, i will be making an adaptor plate for it to mount my t3 turbo. this manifold will also be braced and then brought to a machine shop to have the flange fly cutted flat again since the welding will warp it. good thing i work in a machine shop get this deed done fo free also will be ceramic coating this manifold to keep heat down
