Whatever, DSM's are VERY reliable cars. They have gotten a bad reputation only because every one and their mother likes to push 300+ WHP out of them and they get pissed when they accidently break something. STOCK DSM's are reliable as any other car (including the Evo).

 

There is no mandrel bend with that kind of radius so it's a must.

 

Looks like you could do it with a mandrel bent elbow.
Sup Al.

 

Sup Sup!

I think you're being hypercritical.

Congrats on the new car btw. I don't want to jack this thread but I wonder what your impressions are.

I am...cause spending almost what 150-200 on a wiggins clamp but not buying a mandrel bend?

It's no big deal.

I'll give you my impressions of the EVO in another thread.

 

Nice swap, but the intercooler should of had smoother bends =/.

 

Who gives a flying **** about one mandrel bend. That porsche is SICK!

 

If I remember correctly that car was build a few years back. I believe it had a write up in a magazine, but I can't remember which one. Beautiful car and top notch fabrication to say the least.

 

I believe it was sport compact car magazine...

 

How about a 914 with an EJ25 swap? That would be interesting.

 

This swap is about 6 years old. And, IIRC there was a guy on the SDS-EFI site that had done the swap even before Eric did it.

 

cool
