Re: 93 Lightning Turbo Buildup - - Official Thread
UPDATE:
I welded up a recirculating blow-off tube and it helped straighten the tune out considerably. I have driven it about 70 miles, its pig rich, but it runs. Hope to get some tuning done in the next couple of weeks. This is just a temporary pipe, I plan on making a better one later.

Another UPDATE:
I decided I didnt like the 3.5" slash tip out the side of the truck before the rear wheel. So I cut off the 3.5" tailpipe and welded up an adapter to step up to 4.0" pipe and built a tailpipe that dumps past the rear axle housing It also made it a little bit quieter.

Ever thought about turning the intake around (5.0-style) ? I would do it.

I would, but you have to think about re-routing stuff like throttle cable,cruise control cable, legthen wiring harnesses for the IAC, then the "Lightning" plate would be upside down, etc. etc. But, in the far future when I decide to actually spend some time and make it all look as good as the 03L, then I will consider stuff like that. You have to remember, this is my daily beater, not a Show and Go Toy.
