first turbo project
6 Attachment(s)
This is my first budget not having a job homemade turbo project :6
heres some pics: Attachment 31469 12" intercooler that was a bitch to put in and i had to cut a bunch of ---- to fit it in there, but it was worth it. Dont worry i made brackets later and put it in there alot better Attachment 31470 The dsm duck call..sounds funny. but didnt stay on there for long, just blows off. Attachment 31471 Attachment 31472 The hf manny was free and i made the adapter plate, but the turbo was 100$, no shaft play. i had to dent the crossmember a little to fit the wastgate but its all good. Attachment 31473 Final setup with it all connected and running. Attachment 31474 O and i had to show my homemade rotas. the painted steelies with the chrome snapon ring. |

Re: first turbo project
Man thats one phat/fat front mount, throw some black paint on the manifold and valve cover. Over all your ---- looks good
|
Re: first turbo project
The charge pipes hold good as hell no leaks or blown off piping, noone in my town understands that mommy and daddy wont buy you everything forever. they say its ugly i say ---- you. i got a new valve cover already, its the cleanest original finish valve cover ever. I have no times yet because with no job i cant afford my insurance and my momy wont let me drive it. it sucks, i already got caught drivin when she was gone. i need fuel management it does pretty good till about 5000. first gears rips the steelies the whole time and i did a second bear from ten and it broke loose some and then grabbed and put you it the seat. ill try to get a vid up sometime

Re: first turbo project

Re: first turbo project
that is THE most ghetto'es ic pipes i've ever seen in my entire life but hey if it works 8) good luck with everything and a HMT setup.
|
Re: first turbo project
how long does it take that bicycle turbo to fill that mack-truck sized intercooler :l
and yeah the IC pipe is more ghetto than that hurricane katrina pic of that ------ with a case of heinekin :1 |
Re: first turbo project

Re: first turbo project
i boost 9 pounds. the piping is approved for 100 psi of water. i have the intercooler mounted with mounts i made. its just siiting there in that pic. i ran the piping behind the resivoir and up through the whole by the resovoir fill spout. the piping fits perfectly. i had to move the radiator overflow up and zip tie it. but no biggy. i traded a vtec head i had laying around for the intercooler. the turbo was 100$ and it came with a dsm side mount that was ugly and dint fit very well. the manny was free and i made the adapter plate to the turbo. the hose was $40 and i spent like $40 more on fittings and connectors. the oil line kit i bought from tunertoys was $90. so all in all about $300. i still need fuel management and i have a msd 6al ignition to put on and a blaster 2 coil.

Re: first turbo project
o and the piping will kink in sharp bends so use the hard plastic elbows from kabellins
|
Re: first turbo project
450s run too rich because you need soemthign to control them.
I love the charge pipes! HAHAHA |
Re: first turbo project
i know im mailing my ecu to get it chipped with some d16 vtec injectors so no worries
|
Re: first turbo project
As I said, love those IC pipes made of hose.
What is that and were did you get it, (pool filter hose?...) I'd like to get some like this. |

but other then that, it looks good for your first time. |
Re: first turbo project
OMG, that shits homemade at its finest...never seen the charge pipes youve done. If you throw some duck tape on there the duck will stay on 4evr.
|
Re: first turbo project
that duckcall fits perfectly in the blow-off valve and doesnt come off. its sweet. thnx
|
Re: first turbo project
Hahaha...
That intercooler is a huge bitch. I wonder how long that intercooler piping is going to last. |
Re: first turbo project
Got front mount? yeah you do, now get some management. Looks great.

Re: first turbo project
the intercooler is a homemtown ----- but im the onlyone to put it to good use. My one friend bought it from ebay by typing in huge civic intercooler, it was for his ls eg hatch. he never used just put it on and thpught it was pretty and then went nitrous. then he sold it to our other freind who did the same ----, just mounted thought it was cute and then traded it to me for a shitty ass vtec head i had off of my block i have in my car now. confusing? all in all everyone in my town says their turboing their honda and then quit. pussies

Re: first turbo project

Re: first turbo project
So you're running 9psi with NO fuel management at all? If you still have the 450s, you could try running them with an fpr and just turn down the fuel pressure a lot.
Jeff did that in like turbo project number two. He ran dsm 380s with a b&m command-flo fpr at 20psi of fuel pressure. He said in like 8 months of running the motor never had a problem, then the car got stolen. https://www.homemadeturbo.com/turbo_projects/t25-2/ I know it's easy enough to just get a basemap, but I am always fascinated when ---- like this actually works. Good luck, and the piping is awesome. |
Re: first turbo project
i hav no job right so i had to kinda save up to mail off my ecu and then i got a seatbelt ticket while skiping school.(ironic?) >:( . so now i need 25$ more to get it chipped so i have to wait.... i hate seatbelt laws.

Re: first turbo project
