HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

Setup as of now...

Brand new remanufactured T3 60 trim .48/.60
Custom Beau Garrison manifold and 2.5 inch downpipe
Custom coach 2.5 inch IC piping
Tyrus 5 inch tall intercooler
Custom 3 inch SS exhaust
Auto Meter boost gauge
Stealthmode oil line kit
Turbo XS RFL bov (not installed yet, compressor surge! )

Temporary fuel management:
Removed coolant temp sensor
Retarded 4-5 degrees
Running 3-4 psi

The real fuel management (uberdata) and DSM 450cc injectors will be going in next weekend along with the bov and MBC... I am going for around 10 psi on the dyno. I also still need to paint the IC piping and downpipe. The oil return is kinda low and at a slight angle upwards, but I am going to try and fix that. I couldn't really tell if it smoked much because it was dark, but I made it home from Everett (about 150 miles) and it worked fine. Sometimes I would get a CEL sometimes I wouldn't (no missing link). I will have all the little things worked out next weekend. I am going to give her a little tune up this week as well. I will update once everything is completely finished and tuned.

All the welding was done by Beau and Jeff also helped on the install. Thanks again Beau and Jeff. :)



:::UPDATED:::

At 12psi this car made 230whp/208wtq

;D ;D

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

good luck, uberdata is good ----!

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

Nice! Using anything to hold up your i/c? Mine is just hanging by the charge pipes...fucker better hold! Also, when is Beau going to go the FAQ on making manifolds! >:(

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

I was thinking about drilling holes and bolting my manifold up, but I just ended up using some wire. It was held in there pretty good with the charge piping so I am sure it will be fine. I had to hack my bumper a lot to get it fitting right... me and the skil saw are pretty good friends now. ;D

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

nice job, no beerbong while drive ;D

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

I would have never had my car done in time for dyno day without help from Jeff and Beau. I heard a few swear words and laughing as they were installing some things though so I'm not sure what that was about lol. ;)

Just wait until dyno day and you guys can hear my exhaust in the video... oh baby it sounds sooooo good. :)

I got the exhaust from www.kteller.com It was the custom 3 inch SS DIY kit for the civic with a 22 inch resonator and magnaflow oval muffler.

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

why do yours and egcouperacer's looks the same ;)

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

Uh oh I think you caught me! The name was EGCoupeRacer. Yeah we were worried about the oil return so we thought it would be funny to post pictures and ask what to do lol.

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

Looking good beerbong..glad to see you finally boosting!

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

where did you get ur silicone hose connectors from?

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

how much does one of those exhaust manifold go for ??
Also thanx for posting the links to where u got us stuff from, I've been searching for weeks for a 3" exhaust for my hatch. Good work guys keep it up.

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

Hey man what clutch are u running, and how does the ass dyno feel? Looks like a nice setup

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

ahh, didnt want to look like a tool huh?

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

actually I posted that, we already knew the oil return was way to low, just thought it be funny :P

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

Congrat Pat...finally boosted ;D.
It looks awesome :'(...I want mine done to....NA is boring

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

I got all my charge piping, nitril hoses, and clamps from that customcoach group buy a while ago.

The material for the manifold was about $75. I used the d-series header flange and T3 turbo flange from BMC Racing and those were $40. I bought a bag of 90 degree schedule 40 stainless steel elbows from a local piping store in my town for $4 each. I also picked up some straight pipe for $4.50 a foot.

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

nice :)

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

Hey how much did you pay for the I/C?

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

I bought the intercooler for $220 shipped in one of the first tyrus group buys a while ago. He was having a special sale during the holidays for $190 shipped.

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

just curious, why would you remove the coolant temp sensor??

Re:HomeMadeTurbo installed... ::PICS::
 

I unplugged the coolant temp sensor and plugged it into an extra sensor I had laying around, then I just let it hang in the engine bay. It tricks the car into thinking it's cold so it runs full rich all the time. This is just temporary until I get get my ECU chipped and DSM 450's installed.
