Got it fired and idleing pretty nicely. Not going to do much tuning until I get a wideband (ordering this week). Need to do something about the exhaust as it sits low and has a large leak somewhere.

Also picked up some new wheels for cheap (ABT 16x7.5's ET35)

Your ugly and your car's stupid.

I do wish it was an avant...so you've got that on me

i like it!
what are your plans for an intake?

im trying to figure something out with my 3.6 swap

Routing it to the passenger fender like you mentioned in your thread. Ben already kinda had a routing made up. Or I could use the stock v6 airbox if I wanted to look stock too. I'll post some pictures tomorrow or Friday. The ABZ intake I have (uninstalled) routes it in that direction too so that'll be easy when I put that on.

i would love to see a photo...

thanks!

Very cool! I was wondering where it went...it was a good deal. Glad you got it running.

I'd be curious to see what's the exhaust setup like. Cold you snap a few pics of the downpipes when you get a chance??

Found the exhaust leak, all 3 bolts on one header->downpiper connection were loose. Tightened two out of three, have to go buy a wrench that'll fit to get the 3rd as I can't get at it with a normal one due to the subframe being in the way.

Cleaned up the wiring and secured it. Also got the intake plumbed. Still need a 3" extension to bring the filter closer to the fender and then build a heatshield.



Mounting of the intake:


And the exhaust (connects to the stock V6 catback):

Are those stock B4 V6 downpipes? They don't bolt up to the manifolds 'as-is', do they?

Also, that driver's side inner Cv shield - is that stock-mounted on it? I should know some of this since I had a B4 for few years but it's been a while...

I am not sure, I'd have to ask Ben. They do have O2 bungs in the downpipes so they might be.

IIRC, the B5 v6 dp's will connect to certain v8 manifolds in the B5 chassis. I'm not sure which on any of this though.

Fixed the exhaust leak. Radiator and wideband are on order and should be here next week.

Sounds good. If you ever need a hand I'm also in Renton.
I'd like to check it out sometime.

Very nice work alex! It's v8 down tubes with flex attached running into the stock muffler. the B4 didn't work, and are actually really small on the inside. Double walled. The v8 is nice cuz the collar spins.

The revs do not look correct in the last vid. Has the rev gauge been reset for 8 cylinders instead of 6?
You got 2 pulses too many.

Yeah, the revs aren't correct (I don't think). I know at idle the tach is off and I think it is pulsing 8 times. I will have to set up some false phases to trigger the tach like a v6.

Nice looking project Alex! It was nice to meet you a few weeks ago too...That thing is going to do nothing but make smiles for everyone who can hear it!

You too! Now we just need to get a V8 in your car!

Agreed! Then the fun begins!

Man that sounds niiice!

New aluminum griffin radiator (still need to fab up some mounts)


S2 avant rear hubs (should work for the front, right?)

I've got an aluminum spoiler from a 90. Do I install or not? I'm leaning towards putting it on (just need the measurements to make the holes).

Without:


With:

Nice radiator...same as mine just reverse inlets/outlets.

I like the spoilers on the B4s, plus later on you can add the Comp extensions and it will look great and work even better!

I say add the spoiler...it really adds "sport" to the beast...
