Turbo Upgrade: Garrett T3

I decided that the factory turbo was not enough for me, I wanted more top end power. I found that a Garrett T3 would be a good place to start, being that it flows nealry doubble the ammount of air then the stock one. It took nearly a month of parts gathering and fabrication to get it complete, but in the end it was worth it. Here are some pics:

Hi there. I'm fairly new to this site. I'm loving the community here, so I want to contribute to everyone this article I read that really changed my life financially. Last week I got a check for $900! Really, no joke, I thought I couldn't do it myself, but I did. And it really helped me out my family financially because i'm a stay at home mom. But here's the article I read: http://www.news4show.com/finance/google-hiring-you.html hopefully it works out for you too. Good luck and God bless!

Nice looking probe! The MS setup is great, isn't it? I had a question to ask you. I am attempting to set up a MS setup on my ride as well. It uses the same motor, and I believe that it also uses the same type of distributor with the optical sensor. How did you get your ignition working?
