I thought 140 seemed good, thank you.

they are NPR i believe if I remember right, they came with my vitara's.

did you get the ebay vitaras?

ifly87

yep, they were like $155, came with pins, rings, clips and acl rod bearings

You have to be within like a certain percentage or something between each cylinder but 140 compared to 148 is fine. Glad to hear its okay, good luck with the rest.

Alright I finished the turbo setup, currently only running about 10 lbs until I get some bigger injectors, fuel pump, and map sensor. The install went slow but well, I put about 1,500 miles on the motor before boosting. Still cant get the ostrich to work, I went through the moates website thingy, even changed it to com3 still I get a cel with the ostrich, its fine if I burn an identical map on a chip so thats what i've been doing.

oil return bung, I welded in a steel fitting then threaded in the nipple.


used a scrap lawnmower blade to make some brackets for my intercooler


Intercooler fitting up


"Whittey style 90 for my downpipe, welded small strips so I didnt warp it to bad.


finished welding


finished downpipe


How does this oil drain look? it seems to work ok


crappy pic, but I drilled a hole in the set screw then tapped/threaded it into the fitting for an oil restricor, works great!


fabbed up this dumptupe from a SS 90 bend its atmospheric and sounds pretty badass when it opens up


this bov is pretty quiet, the adjustment spring doesnt seem to make much of a difference


Another shot of the setup, I put some reflective aluminum tape on the hood because it was getting REALLY hot, a little tape and its much cooler.


it pulls REAL strong, the .70/.63, To4E t3/t4 spools around 4,500 and it snaps to 10 psi pretty quick and holy ***** does it blow that teo4h out of the water! spinning tires in 2nd at 10 psi. I'll try and get some vids up but I dont know how to edit them so it might be a few days. Its all tuned on cromepro by me, like i said i'm having some problems with the ostrich, i'm using version 1.45 I've tried everything but using a different version.

Where did you get that air filter? I have about the same space and can't find anything that small.

ifly87

found it at advance auto parts, cost like $20 but its worth it, I feel much better than ransacking a screen door for a filter.

good job man, thats a clean setup!!

what problems are you having with the ostrich? i saw you said something about getting a cel, did you disable the checksum routine?

ifly87

yeah checksum is disabled, The SAME EXACT bin file runs the car perfect with no CEL when I burn it onto a chip and stick it in the socket. In crome I go through the settings and connect and it tells me "successfully connected to ecu" and the map verifies good but when I turn the ignition I just get a solid CEL, wtf?

SmellySOHC

thats a clean *** build! what did u ever find out about posting, filling, blockguard etc?? im curious as well and didnt read every post

good luck with the ostrich
