It's Gumby's fault.

Goto the hard ware store and get you some brass parts. You'll need a brass Tee and one cap to fit the Tee and some Barb fitting that are 1/4" that screw into the Tee then you'll need a spring and a ball that fits inside the Tee next drill a hole in the cap and tap it to fit a fine thread bolt. I used a allen head bolt.  These are the basics to a Manual boost controller. Do a search over at http://www.turboford.net/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=forum;f=2
That is where I found the basics and made my own. Only cost me $8 and a little time that work paid me for.

Something about this TC I really like. I feel like it actually has potential. Even though I still can't think of a name...

EDIT: Holy ! The paint job looks awesome... in the pics, lol. Not so awesome in person.

Looks to be in pretty good shape. I like it. I've always liked black Turbo Coupes. So I'm assuming it's in much better shape than the white one?

Actually it's blue. :) But it's really hard to tell. And it's in way better shape than TCR. They actually feel like two completely different cars. Can't wait to get all the parts I have left over from the part out swapped over.

Finally came up with a name too. :)
