The MAF was soldered on instead of using the plug... the solder touched and fried the ecu. There is a long long line of other things but I'm just gonna leave it at that. He only paid $2k though for an SR s13 so I mean you get what you pay for.
amazing.

if anyone is gonna turbo/swap a car just to have massive boost leak, try plan B: give me your money instead and your car will get magically faster. no lie.

The LEAST you can do is brake clean the pipes and JB Weld a bead to hold the couplers on. I'm not going to trust it hold 2 things together on a hot vibrating motor, but for making beads, it's a perfectly reasonable application.

Yeah, that'll probably do it. I've never blown a coupler even when I hit 30+psi. Central Auto hooked me up with some nice beaded pipes.
