"here is a pic, not as shiney as yours but still works. i'm starting to appreciate LGM's custom downpipes more now that i realized how much room there is to work with."

8) Thank you. Yeah it was a bit of a pain to do at first but now that I've built 14 or so of them.......

practice makes anything better and easier. i need to see about the ATP 3" adapter and flange. i am certain i will have a hell of a time making a downpipe.

i'm kicking myself in the ass for not getting in on the downpipes before you bought parts :cry:

if you get a chance look up my thread on isuzone, it's called "project 1640cc"

btw, is anyone doing anything about intercoolers? im not sure how effecient the M100 one is.

There's a very simple solution for this problem here. :-D

hehehe, i don't know why but i just cut his name to "P. Wa" and i couldn't stop laughing. case of the giggles!!! :lol:

anyway, thanks for the call Marie...again, I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!

on the subject, i see now why you clocked/indexed the turbo the way you did. holy moly, it is tight in there.

you know, i'm gonna stop cluttering your thread and make a GT upgrade thread later tonight so that those installing this know what they are looking at. anyone is welcome to contribute.

take care everyone and thanks for all the support to the little isuzu guy :wink:

Well gents, a bit more progress. All of the turbos have been polished. Pics soon to come as soon as I get them all indexed properly. I'll also post pics of my turbo install showing hose routing.

These might be yours... She's done with all the polishing.
Can't help but to concur that they are even nicer than ours...
I'll take the downpipes to have them gas-sealed soon.

For those with turbo kits with turbos, you will recieve two shipments. the first will have all of the intake and coolant/oil plumbing with the turbo. The second will have the manifold and the downpipe which will be shipped upon reciept from jethot unless otherwise instructed. The reasoning behind this is A) Cheaper due to weight/size of the package and B) I'm quickly running out of room in mt storage

All of the kits without turbos will be shipped complete, sans intake for those that did not order one in the LGM BOV/Intake thread or with for those that did.

Things are moving........

Heard from her that all the headshields were all cut to size. Now we just wait for the downpipe works and some nuts and bolts :smt024
