[shapinoweno]

well if you fab you dont really have to pay much. hehe.

yeah fabricatorx im in about the same boat i have been welding mig for about 6 years, and tig and arc for about 3. i have been wrenching on cars and harleys since i was about 10. i love to fab **** up man, i wish i could be apart of this sucks you guys are so far away from me. anyways like i said time is the big issue for me right now. if i would have had the time i would have already built a kit.

good luck with yours and i cant wait to see the progress

thank you. I am looking forward to sharing fabrication info with you, im all about being open about all my tricks, because as you find out, it's not about the knowledge per say, it's about the actual skill.

only question lies... when the aveo engine torques, which direction does it move? to or away from the firewall?

where do you have the innercooler

[fabricatorx]

I havent purchased one yet.

Ok, these things are a pain in my bum lol. the above prices are NOT for the shorty manifold, they are for the log manifold, I got confused about what I was doing, been so busy lol.

just put torque dampers on both sides lol

i saw the turbo'd 3dr aveo on cardomain that everyone has probably seen, and noticed that the black steel bar in front of the radiator is gone, in favor of room for the intercooler. is it possible to remove that bar in our cars for room for the intercooler as well?

[fabricatorx]

WE are building a replacement bar specifically for that purpose.

Scenario: consumer wants to turbo his aveo. low and behold, the bumper bar is in the way, so he needs to cut it, or remove it entirely to fit the intercooler. by removing the bumper bar, crash safety is now compromised. consumer also plans on fitting an aero bumper, but needs to chop his factory bumper bar to make it fit.
Grounding RaceFab offers a replacement bar with factory bumper mounting points and intercooler mounting points. This bar is a slim fit, so even aero bumpers fit withou modification.

Sounds interesting doesn't it

so will this bar be more sturdy than the stock piece?
