lol ya bro .
Im mad that I spent hard earned money on real products made and tested for my car. What was I thinking, I should have read this thread years ago, saved countless dollars and still only ran a mid 15sec 1/4 mile will hoping and praying that my car doesnt blow up! Oh wait all the boost leaks hold back any real boost getting into the engine, never mind, I see what you did there.

as far as the overheating on the highway. 100 degrees will not cause an engine over heating problem. check your thermostat, water pump and coolant mixture. make sure your radiator isnt clogged with corrosion. rent or purchase a coolant pressure tester. this way you can see if the cooling system has a leak externally or inside the cylinder head from a failed head gasket.

leave that kid alone. he built a turbo car on a budget. hence the name home made turbo. you cant knock him for doing it himself. not everyone has the money to throw together premade parts. i respect him more for doing it himself instead of pussing out by purchasing all premade parts.

100 degress not cause over heating... HE HAS A FRONT MOUNT INTERCOOLER TAKING UP HIS RADIATOR AIR FLOW! 99% of all overheating problems after a front mount install is due to the FRONT MOUNT restricting radiator air flow. But please, carry on... What do I know.

you must know very little because most of your claims are invalid and illogical, you are making yourself sound even more stupider every time you post sleepy 7 bolt.
But since you know so much you are aware that at the time of this build there were 0 ways of getting a SOHC 6g72 boosted through any kind of kit.(current search yields one for 3000 dollars) There was too small a market for turbo kits for any company to want to produce a kit. therefore, I had to- design, fabricate and assemble 100% of my build just as if I were sitting at my job at Boost Logic, the difference is that I was in my garage, and not at Boost Logic.... for a prototype this is a ------- good build, and i'd like you to find someone who did the same thing I did but better?
and no, you know nothing, but I have spent and infinite amount more time boosting this car than you. I started this in HS and am a mechanical engineering major at Texas A&M,
you also fail to recognize any form of sarcasm -yes i was kidding you.
oh also, you make claim at my FMIC is blocking airflow but fail to know that i also have a secondary air scoop under the FMIC and the bumper in general to route air to the radiator,
also i have no AC condenser which i can make the claim blocks equal if not more airflow than a FMIC.
and a lot of my overheating problems were due to an exhaust leak blowing directly on the radiator, not the FMIC,
you sir, are a complete fool, and if you were so confident in your opinion, you wouldn't need to post here, which is a place for constructive comments, not a place for you to release your personal insecurities on a faceless forum.

I didnt knock him for doing it himself, just for doing a horrible job at every part he put on. "Pussing out" on premade parts? Are you kidding me? You car must be just as fast and reliable as his, bro.

Did you read the previous pages of this thread? Im stupid?

I realize there was no "kit" or "manifold" which neither was I referring to when I said props for doing it yourself but doing it horrbily.
and no, you know nothing, but I have spent and infinite amount more time boosting this car than you. I started this in HS and am a mechanical engineering major at Texas A&M,
Well good for you.
you also fail to recognize any form of sarcasm -yes i was kidding you.
Well then I did not realize that, I appologize.

Ive been building and playing with cars for a while just like you guys, but there is a correct and overall better way to do it, on a tight budget or not. Take your car to a shop that actually has won awards and know how to do it, see how much contructive commentary they will give. They wont make you feel all good like your the best for hack jobbing it in your garage.
lol! yeah, what do i know. i live in a climate with 100 degrees most of the summer as well. the last time i checked an engine runs at 180-220 degrees so 100 degree ambient temp is a lot cooler and will cool the engine enough to not over heat. and yes, i know what i am doing. and yes, i have a front mount intercooler. and no, my build does not over heat. if you ------- read you would clearly see that he stated the car over heated on the highway. at highway speeds the air is more than capable of entering the radiator. if there is an issue with radiator cooling it would be at idle. i am a trained technicion and have very many years knowledge of the auto field and turbo charging. ive built many turbo vehicles and many turbo motorcycles. your not arguing with a ------- 20 y/o. i have some years on me. just because he didnt purchase all his parts and assemble it as a kit, doesnt make it wrong. just because its not as pretty as you would like it to be, doesnt make it wrong. so if, you have no usefull knowledge on his build that can help then stop posting ignorant ----. go live the rest of your life spending 1000.00's more on your premade turbo kits, you ------- dipshit. this is how you learn. you think i learned by buying premade pieces. ---- no! i purchased a welder, some metal, a chop saw and i started cutting and welding exhaust manifolds, intake plenums, boost piping, down pipes. i messed almost all of them up on my first time and even my second and third but i eventually got it figured out. i practiced and now i am a damn good fabricator and mig and tig welder.
oh yeah! fyi: IM NOT YOUR ------- BRO, YOU FUCKTARD

I mean by Busa's logic my 2.0 pushing 20psi should by all means really turn into a 5.0L. Brilliant.
Home made turbo does not have to mean hack job from home turbo. I didnt realize this when I signed up, I may have been missinformed.

I joined this forum just so I could say a couple things.
1) Your build thread is currently the laughing stock of about 3 major world-wide forums, and many smaller local forums
2) You should not be building, or even THINKING about making ANY car a turbo car if you don't have the money to properly do it.
3) LOL @ more stupider!
4) I've got $1200 into my car using "premade turbo parts" including cost of the car itself, tag, title, insurance, fluids, etc, and I promise it's lightyears faster than yours, where you used "homemade turbo setups" and didn't "puss out by using premade turbo kits". Your car would be faster if you stopped what you were doing, and started to do things properly. I.E. buying quality parts and doing things right. Hell for that matter, the car probably would've been faster if you would've just spent the money for a nitrous setup.
5) If you work at Boost Logic, then I work for the President of the United States.
With that said, carry on. We need more lulz.

Oh wow. This is a great build! I think I want to do this to my brother's 3g Spyder! NOT. Have you ever herd of taking your time? Like seriously. Those welds...my dick could of done a better job at welding those manifolds together. Take pride into your work man, at least make it look somewhat decent. Come on now. Agreed with Cracked- stupider? You go to Texas A&M? Wow, and work for Boost Logic. Must be nice! All the people that work there and see that you did such quality work, you must be on your way to be a master fabricator! Hat's of to ya, bro!
