So this is what happens when I don't update this thread with actual info about my truck, huh?

Middle coolers all up in this joint

[Tacoclaw]

In honor of its new title change, here's a pic of my glorious, new(to me) middlecooler dwarfing the pathetic old cowbell:

[PToombs]

That's not a middlecooler! That's an aftercooler, and a big SOB too! Are you going to pull the inlet and biggie size it to your pipe size?

[Tacoclaw]

Already on it.

Squeezed me a piece of 3" pipe (easy, Hineman) in the vice, and it fit perfectly between the bolts. Unfortunately, I'm not sure what size of an outlet I'm going to be able to get out of an S300 housing, so I'm going to wait until I can find that out. I'll just keep it all the same size so I don't have to deal with reducers and whatnot.

Also, I gave the eyesore a bath today. I was told by my body-shop buddy that "ultra concentrated" Dawn was bad for car paint, but I had finally had it with the handprints and grease stains all around my hood and front fenders. I went out with an arsenal of cleaning supplies, from Comet to non-concentrate Dawn, to get them off there. I just happened to spot a Mr. Clean magic eraser the ex left under my sink, so I grabbed it too.

Just for kicks I put straight Dawn on the grease and rubbed it with the eraser while I was filling the bucket. It decimated the handprints. I don't mean it dulled them down, I mean they're not there anymore. These things had been on there for years. I don't know how bad those Magic Erasers are for a decent paintjob, but I know I'll be using them to wash my entire truck from now on. I went through 1 eraser per body panel, but holy crap can those things clean.

[PToombs]

Don't erase it too much or you won't be able to find the truck!

[dazedandconfused]

Well where is the pics?

[Tacoclaw]

My oil leaks act as a GPS and tracking device.


Pics of my truck? It's just clean, it's still ugly.

I'll grab one when it's daylight tomorrow.

[dazedandconfused]

Yeah so we can document you do clean it

[Tacoclaw]

Yeah so we can document you do clean it

[Tacoclaw]

It may be gigantic, but it's crazy how skinny it is.

[Tacoclaw]

Here's the inlet with a piece of 3" squeezed to fit. I have a feeling that an S300 outlet is 2.5, so I doubt this will actually be needed:



And here's a washed pic for Mr, Dazed's files:





It's not as clean now that it's dry, but one more pass should finish off the stragglers.
