sup fellas.... after all this time of savin up (not reallY) and piecing together a kit that most of you say to hell with... i finally have everything together... i started my install monday... im not done with it yet, considering i work 24 hours, and go to school another 30. so far, i only installed injectors, did the oil pan, manifold, turbo, and oil line kit... but i had to go thru hell for the oil line kit... fittings werent fitting, etc....

anyways, i started the car today, open d/p... sounds beasty... i need to get my ecu chipped, so that i can drive it...

need: buy and connect i/c piping, ecu, and put everythign back together....

what do u guys reccomend for exhaust?

iiight... i'll get pics up soon... any info, or advice welcome...

*** got some pics today... i didnt get none drivin cuz i was late for school...

got the ecu chipped (xenocron) but somehow, its not passin 5000rpms. it cuts off, and sounds like, i dont kno, i'll put it up so u can hear it, but i told him to set it at 6000, idc tho, cuz its probly better for me, till i tune. did a compression test, and it was 185, 190 190 180, and leakeage was good... umm... i need now to get some real i/c piping... yeah i know its ghetto, but i had to throw sumthin on there... (creative huh?) it feels real good to have boost... so all u bitches sayin u goin turbo and not doin it, better do it, sell drugs, get a job, sell your ***, whatever.. just do it... heres what i spend so far...

car 500
timing belt and ---- - 100
turbo - 50 (dsm)
lines - 80 (tunertoys)
manifold - 30 (dsm)
injectors - 30 (450 dsm)
cheap intercooler (50)
boost gauge a/f gauge + pod - 70 (autometer gauges).
colder plugs and and wires - 50 (ngk)
ecu 8psi basemap - 50 (xenocron)

and now i need: to TUNE and real piping, and ummm... pistons rods head job bigger turbo more boost~

 

sounds good, just get the rest of the ---- and throw it on and in the mean time liets see some pics of the install

 

yup, lets see some pics.. oh and.. you dont need an exhaust.

 

pics or more info would be nice

 

show me them *******, er, i mean pics

 

nice man, commin together. you cant go wrong with a nice 3in exhaust. now get some pics up

 

damn... something is wrong...

i went thru two turbos in the same day....

this is what happens... i slapped the turbos on, with oil lines, and o2 housing, and put on the i/c piping.... then after a while driving it, (no exhaust) it doest boost anymore, and the turbo sounds like it got hiccups....

like you'll hear it, start spinnin, then it'll choke.... i'm thinkin it has to do with oil (either too much or too little) but i got the oil kit from stealthmode... i have a few more turbo's but i dont wanna keep goin thru them (yeah i bought some back ups...)

 

Did you have the ball valve included in the oil feed kit closed?

 

either they are both shitty turbos or you need an oil pressure gauge

 

i dont think it came with that valve...

and both the turbos were workin, for a while... they boosted a couple times, and thats it.... they got the hiccups.. i still dont know if i should throw the other turbo on...
