I'll post some pics so you guys get an Idea of what's it's gone though.

Old setup I never got fully running & boosted



What it looked like when I got it all together somewhat running on the old setup.



The built motor going in the car next.

















For the mean time, this went in the car:



Had to remove the intake, but I got it running like this where it made 202whp @ only 5psi



Made it to the big yearly Sonic meet in PA.



Fixed the good intake and installed it, moved some stuff around, etc.



Painted:



Made it to the track and ran a 13.4 @ 107. Not bad for first time and on street tires. All of this on the stock motor @11psi.



It's currently torn down and I'm doing a full wire tuck and shaving/painting the bay and then installing the new built motor.

Hope you guys enjoy. The car has been a real crazy, frustrating, expensive, and honestly super fun and awesome project so far and has taught me so much.

You put alot of work and dedication into this. Not many people really do anything with these. Looking forward to the work your going to do.

About as nice as a 94 saturn can be. I'm inspired by the fact that you took such a random car and put so much work into it. Props sir.

I really like those wheels in silver. I think its better as a sleeper. Just my pennies.

[NeedingAnAudi]

Definitely want to see shaved and tucked!

[Randomofodication]

curious as to where you are tucking the wires and what your doing with the resevoirs and such? could you post up some pics of the bay in progress?

[PunkboySL2]

Thanks guys! This is my dream saturn build. I'm stoked for this year since I should be making over 300whp no problem.

As for the wheels, they're getting changed out next year. They're just cheapy wheels so we've been painting them all kinds of goofy colors just for the hell of it. I'm going 17x8.25 with 235/40R17s. Should be a great new setup. I can't wait to feel how it handles with Toyo R1Rs vs the Hankook RS3s.

Random: check out my build thread on 6S. I have more pictures up there. Basically the headlight harness is run through the fender well, fuse box is under the dash and the rest of the wiring pulled through where the A/C would normally run on the firewall. I should be finishing the wiring and starting on sanding the bay next week (I hope!).

this you?

[PunkboySL2]

Been a bit since I visited. Yes that is my car in the dyno vid. I painted the wheels the bright orange right before the dyno day lol.

Not much of an update yet, but I finished the wiring, started some cleaning, polishing and sanding. Getting more done this week and hopefully some picture updates.

[AaronM]

Different to say the least, but i can dig it

[PunkboySL2]

Figure since I'm not getting too much done I could post some pics of the wire tuck.

Cut some of the heater box up. The A/C stuff is yanked out so that's where the hole in the back of the box came from. Just had to cut it open a little bigger.





Harness pulled through the firewall. Still need to update this.



When I have the money these are happening:

Along with some 235/40R17 Toyo R1Rs. Should grip and go nicely.

Now theres something you dont see every day. Props to you sir

[kaidotech]

Nice! I agree with the guy above. Its nice to see something new for a change. Do you have anymore pics of that wagon in your sig?

[Haggard_guy]

good build. there is a guy in my area that has a pretty sweet one.

[Randomofodication]

looks like its coming together well! what are the specs you're going with on those new wheels?

[PunkboySL2]

Thanks guys. I am actually probably going to do a proper shoot of the wagon in the near future. One of my buddies just got a real nice flash setup to do some better shoots.

Wheels I'm going with are 17x8.25, I want to say they are ET25 (same at that black saturn). Looking to run Toyo R1R in 235/40R17.

I don't have any big updates as I actually broke my pelvis riding bmx around 3 weeks ago. I have to stay off of my left leg for the next 2 months so until then I can't do any real work to the car, but I'm going to try and get some minor work done here real soon. I did finally purchase a REAL turbo. Went with a big boy Garrett t3/t4 60-1. Sucker will flow enough to make 550whp (which is about 100 more hp then my goal). It should be pretty retarded on 20psi.








I'm also thinking about picking up an aluminum coolant overflow tank since this is a show and go car and the stock one kinda looks like crap. Would probably do something like this:
