It's finally happening!

[EM1_ProJect]

Well, the day has come....tomorrow. The setup finally goes on, and hopefully we arent forgetting anything that will set us back any more time than we've already been set back. I'll save everybody the trouble and post the setup below.

Ebay T3/T4 XSPOWER Turbo (Changed from garrett)
No name 6 inch FMIC (changed from the greddy)
Revhard Thermal Coated Log Manifold (changed from BMC Race)
Delta Wastegate (changed from HKS)
Turbo XS RFL Blowoff Valve
Tunertoys 450cc Injectors
Tunertoys 2.5in Charge Piping
Misc. Clamps, Hoses, Fittings, Lines....
(and im only going to do about 8lbs....stock bottom end) wish me luck

Yep, there goes a mess in my pants. Thanks. lol Good luck w/ the install and make a vid of it after is on. Oh and btw at the XS BOV. They are sexy sounding.

I want a sound clip of the BOV when your done. Also i think you should dump the wastgate to open air it sounds bad ass

 

[EM1_ProJect]

There will definitaly be a short video when it's all said and done. The kid helping me says it shouldn't take more than the day tomorrow. He's never boosted a b16, but he's done a few B18's, including his, twice, and it doesn't take that long he says. Let's hope everything goes perfect.

I'm the same way bro, i always spend it on something smaller instead of saving but my boy had an intercooler for sale and i was like, "ill buy it" then i was obligated to finish the setup lol. And everybody has been asking me about fuel management and what not, and to tell you the truth im thinking Hondata s200.....but i have nothing right now but my puny P28 ecu. Nate says it shouldn't be a problem for now

i agree. keep up informed on the progress the ride.

i agree. keep up informed on the progress the ride.

Well so far...

Turbo is bolted up and mounted
Manifold is bolted up and mounted
FMIC is mounted
Intake Manifold to intercooler is welded and connected
Oil pan is bolted up and tapped, feeding the turbo already
Intercooler to turbo unfinished
downpipe unfinished

so basically it's all bolted on right now i just can't use the boost, my ECU isnt even tuned to rev. past 5K yet, just for the safety of not hurting anything before it's ACTUALLY tuned right (by thursday whenever Nate is free).
it's taking so long because it took us a full day to shave the block down for the turbo to fit where it needed to be with the log manifold i'm using. It whistles nicely when i drivefor now though, and open turbo sounds sick lol. i might go open downpipe when thats on. i'll take pictures tomorrow because i took the FMIC off for school today so nobody would steal it while my bumper is off.
