EEK!!!! My wife will freak when she sees those welds.

LMAO!!!! Are you kidding me? Whats up with the crescent wrench zip tied to the brake caliper? Is that for easy brake adjustments? Somebody should weld these guys hands together so that they NEVER touch a welder again.

Saddest thing of those pics is on most of them the owners had to have posted them and thought somehow that what they made was good

Thank God there are crushers that can take on whole cars at one time.

It would take a 36 in. grinding wheel to clean up some of those welds :lmao:

Very wierd coinsidence here. I was at AutoZone this evening picking up a turn signal flasher and the kid wanted to come out and look at the 'cuda.
I was showing him the ProCharger and he wanted me to check his home made turbo manifold on his Integra.
I swear, these could be his photos. He looked about as skinny as the kid in these photos and definately dabbled in controlled substances.

God Bless the internet.... Scary thing about it is people see nothing wrong with stuff like this and whats even worse they even get compliments on some of it. Esp when it comes to suspension or saftey stuff....It HAS TO BE PERFECT... theres no other way to do it...

Homemadeturbo.com were the originators of that haha. They started with honda TB's because they are honda guys. But they really like the size of the LS1 TB now hahah

yeah, no kidding, I think we all see that! j/k What bothers me is you just don't know how many people unknowingly have paid for crap like this.

I guess I better call Ironworks and let them know that they might as well close their doors.
Competition will be too fierce to keep them open.

Have mig, will travel

Welding is easy, just squeeze the trigger

I looked at the directions

I'm a welder

My buddy said it was easy

Yea, I can weld

Yep, did it myself

Home built

Back yard built

My buddy, who does that stuff for a living, did it for me

It-el hold

No body will ever see it

Just grind it down, a little

Just paint it

I think the "Turbo Muffler" idea as kinda cool. Interesting way to hide the turbos for "street" racing. Oh yea, its just got a cold air intake.
