Turbo Project continued?

Oh dang man cant wait it will be sweet btw your car looks nasty with that termi front bumper

alright all here is what i was up 2 today...

my buddy jaiden decided he wanted to help..


here is all of the days work (everything tacked, will finish welding everything tomorrow)

so is this thing up and running yet???

you asked for an update

motor is assembled again and ready to go (Except for the upper intake which i am welding the cruise control nipple to the throttle body arm **broke from brothers performance POS**)





Turbo Drain bolt holes i had to drill and tap because the old owner striped them and decided not to tell me about it




PLANNING ON STARTING HER LATE TOMORROW!! give me a call if you wanna stop by 509-8620

:_popcorn_:

PURE SEX!!!










I mean sexy

measured for my belt and oriely's didnt have a 48inch belt so no starty today.... ill be out of town all weekend so it looks like next week

looking good dave...when do expect it to be done...let me know if you need any help..

the more the merry'r I plan on starting it this week. Autozone had the right belt and it fits great i ordered my 02 sensor bungs yesterday so they will be here today or tomorrow. i have probly 1 hour left in welding and about 1 hour of cutting pipe. i need to install the transmission/ drive shaft/ and shifter and we can start this beauty again!!

Here are some more pics,





lil tight but ill have to fire her up and see how everything plays with each other in there

i tacked the cold side today and extended both bank 02 sensors.. i did recieve the 02 sensor bungs and will weld those in tomorrow!

I do need help with installing the transmission if anyone has some free time then please head on over lol! thanks guys

car started yesterday!! ill post the vid tonight, still need to weld the wastegate and BOV but IT STARTED

woohoo!!

5-7 psi (loud as hell but idc she is runnin)

well scrap the 7psi i took it to 10psi and my intake temp was steady at 80degrees which i am impressed about. A/r is about 10.3-10.5 which is rich but its not tuned yet! coolent temp was aroun 160f to 170 which is ok for now. i am heading back into the garage to check the maf voltage to see how it is at 10psi

I thought it blew up?

we are still wondering WTF happened.. i think the lower intake bolts lifted causing coolent to leak in the cylinder and poof, i replaced the lower intake gasket and verified the the fuel injector harness was ok then then slapped everything back together. crimped the cyl. 2 and 3 spark plug wire shut a lil to make sure there is a firm grip on the plug.. also checked the MAF voltage and it was 3.5v at 10psi 02 sensor 1 and 2 were at .95v

Looks like you were out back behind O'Riley.....

maybe! wildhorses doesnt allow dangerous driving on public roads... so apperently i blocked the road before any passes

:_lol_:

Well that's good to hear.

I'm glad to hear it's back together. I saw your other video. That was quite a flash it made on the dyno. This one was a lot more fun to watch.

i like vid #2 as well!! thanks

Actually what really happened was I stood out front with my Glock and scared everyone away.

lol thats great for new members to see what really goes on.. thanks for breaking that one

you know im tempted to go another direction here soon. im satisfied with the top end power mine makes. BUT low end is just worthless. in retrospect a B headed beast is good for say 4k-7k as i have mine now. i am going to pull the motor and convert it to 3v OR buy a late model V6(3.5literdohc) and figure how to convert it to rear wheel drive. that may not be practical. so changing to 3v for low end torque and keeping the rest of the turbo setup with manley/mahley seems like a good idea. i'll have to take the pistons to work and mill exhaust valve reliefs for 3v.
