finally my Ef turboed!!! REAL deal HMT!!
#32
Good job on the HMT. Now to the real point of my post.
I can careless if this is your DD and you are just messing around or if you planning to big and make a full drag car at some point later...
Some pointers you might want to consider before you blow that thing up or kill your turbo, and then you'll be making a thread "EF'en eh, what happen to my HMT turbo setup!?!"
1. Drill a bigger hole for your blow off valve on that stupid crush bent intake arm to optimize the actual function of your blow off valve and decrease compressor surge.
2. Get some kind of freaken engine management, even if its an FMU its definitely better than fish air valves--preferably a chipped ecu for $50-90 and a decent basemap!
3. Get bigger injectors, DSM 450cc's are cheap enough for you
4. Brace the turbo manifold before it cracks on you.
Its your car, do whatever the hell you want, but just remember there are many reasons why your car drives like shiet and why someone will still rape you with their stock motor!
