Default **PICS** Turbo Set up done, come see

Ok, it's a 93 D16Z6 with a T25. I made my own Manifold, downpipe, and all my intercooler piping, and, the best part of it is I still have my A/C, yes i'm a wuss. And for all the newbies wanting to know how much it really costs,

230 –Intercooler (CCA)
free – t25 turbo
85 –log manifold (made it myself, help of BMC racing head flange)
free --450cc injectors
8- fix wg actuator
28 dual gauge pod (ebay)
10 fix bov and flange
100 oil lines (stealthmode and local performance shop)
19 extra oil lines
20 dp flange (BMC Racing)
172.50 S-AFC (ebay)
free- manifold gasket and turbo exhaust gasket(metal)
41- hallman manual boost controller
57.50- oil pressure gauge (electric) (ebay)
52.50- boost gauge (manual) (ebay)
20- resistor box (ebay)
92- intercooler/ dp piping
5-O2 bung
46.50 -5 silicone hoses (ebay)
10- 2.5” to 3” silicone hoses (autozone)
10- little air breather (autozone)
5- home depot hose 90
15 oil pan gaskt
15-head gasket
40-DP flex and flanges (performance automotive)
5- hoses and clamps coolant (" ")
total $1300

Thanks to CCA intercoolers



I made a fiberglass piece to hold my s-afc, turned out pretty cool.

I know it's ghetto, I just put it where my old bypass valve was for my CAI.

Sorry the pic is sideways. I didn't have to take anything out that was stock , all my stock radiator is in there, just had to dremel down my fan blades down a little bit and my shrowding.

I redid my intercooler piping a litlle around the dp after this pic was taken, it used to only have about 1/8" b/t them, now it's like 3/4" b/t the dp and interooler pipe.


My oil pressure gauge and lines...duh

this one turned out really good, can't barely tell I even welded it all up,...thanks to the grinder

you can see the stealthmode oil drain line, I had to cut like 4" off it so that it would fit better, but it fits fine now. Also, I had to buy some extrension lines so i could run a line up to the firewall for my electric oil press gauge, then to the turbo. I had it dynoed at 8 psi and it pulled in a 162whp and 151 torque. RIght now I'm running 9 psi, so its 170whp, its quick, but not freeakin' fast, but for around town...its fun It kinda spools out around 6000rpms. I'll take it to the track next month and post some times. I had no friends to help me on this one,(except for injectors and afc install) so it took about 2 weeks for install and making my piping and all. This winter, I'm thinking about going with the 14b or 16g, seeing how it will fit the same manifold and downpipe and switching to überdata.

yea man the setup looks real clean. great job on the charge pipes. you might wanna put some heat wrap on the downpipe, just because it comes close to the charge pipe

Man, what can I say. It looks beautiful... almost brings a tear to my eye . Wait it did.

Nah, you did a real damn nice job of keeping it clean which is what I plan on doing. Can't wait! Gonna be a while though. Almost done w/my (pretty much) engine rebuild. Just replacing about every gasket from Throttle body to timing cover, down to oil pan. Intake/exhaust and head as well w/ARP studs . A good $200 bucks that'll be worth it in the long run. Oh, new rings and bearing too, well main bearing, not rod bearings. Boosting for sure, and I mean at the very latest, xmas. Hopefully not that long, but got too much ---- I'm taking care of. w/e. I'm envious!!!

That was my main goal in this project, to keep it as clean as a hmt can be. It took me about 7 months of reading and buying parts to get this all done.
