i might.... i replaced all of the gaskets and the rear main seal.. the front main seal is dripping a lil, i may pull it off and put another on. im not sure if you can pull the front main seal without dropping the oilpan... in that case i will probably not run the car, i don't have time to do that.

I can honestly tell you right now, Military guys can fix engines in NO TIME LOL. My buddy in the Marines had to completely rewire and reconfigure 20 Humvees radio consoles. Took him 20 minutes each. That my friend, is a freak of nature. That same job woulda taken me almost 3 hours on one Humvee. Im glad our boys can pull off a clean job in short periods of time.

To all you guys in the Service, a great many of thanks from my friends and family. Come back safe bro, we'll be holdin a bottle of Patron for you guys! LOL

I feel you bro, I'm open minded to all... except for the ones that try to force it on you. I still believe God is up there watching over us.

Ok... getting a bit religous here...

But yeah man, good to see your KA-T is already done up. What turbo you have on there again? What do you have internally? I might go low budget and do a KA-T project LOL, I got so many ideas in my head, its not even funny HA!

that an holset H1c and as long as you got a healthy motor and a ok tune, you don't have to go inside of the engine. with a basic piggy back system ( safc ) upgraded injectors and fuel pump, you can safely go to about 10psi and that also depends on the turbo size becuase we all know 10psi on a T28 is different then a GT35r.

my holset is closely related to a gt30r but i only paid 125 dollars for it and it built on the same line as Garrett

when you are on the highway, every truck that you hear wizing by has for the most part a Holset Hx or Hy35 or bigger.

check out the KA-t section for more bro.

125 for the snail? where did you get it? That price seriously makes me want to get one... who makes a good turbo manifold?

I know, I should be over in the KA-T section right now, but I really want to know like... right now LOL

dealer online.. just type in Holset no one sells more than him.. hes located in Rockville MD

as far as the manifold they are all the same.. its either cast or tubular and after that its figment... i however made my own because it had to be custom to fit my holset.

So the Holset wont fit the normal KA-T manifolds correctly?

Im seriously curious because I need to boost. Stock is really bugging me so badly.

well it cant have an angle on the manifold sending it toward the Master cylinder on a s13... s14s have more space.

however with an holset, you want the flange to be as straight as possible in order to clear the master cylinder.

If you dont mind, could you post up some pictures? I keep thinking the master cylinder is way off to the side and all on my S14... Im a bit lost, not to mention my brain has decided to shut down early tonight...

I could just be able to do a bit of customization to any aftermarket manifold to fit the Holset then right?

What "mancooler" are you running in the front?

Where did you get the manifold?

I tried googleing holset, but I find the actual company... did you get the turbo through the official site or off ebay?

All I could find for a seller (online) is www.goldfarb-associates.com in the city you mentioned who sells new and rebuilt turbos. Is that him?

Wow... 450 for a brand new H1C, but dirt cheap for those used ones, but a lot of rebuild work... How did you get yours for so cheap?
