My Setup
 

I am busy like you wont beleive... i had 3 hours of freedom today and this is what i did... i put together the turbo (was in peices for cleaning) bolted everything up except Oil lines... anyways heres some pics...

sorry about not posting pics of the IC.. im going to have to redesign the end tanks. anyways.. i put it together and could not resist the urge to take it for a lil drive down the cul-de-sac.... I know i shouldnt do it but i did anways... just really fast... like 30 seconds or so... well it turned on ok.. no CEL>???? i found this odd... it was only boosting at 5psi... well it took off... this new turbo sounds like a jet engine... and the BOV makes a whinny noise just like i wanted... theres an exhaust leak on the wastegate flange... guess im going to either buy the gasket monday at Road racing engineering... or have it welded shut... anyrecomendations on how to stop it from leaking??? no one has that gasket... i went to autozone, kragen, pepboys, napa. and my local parts warehouse.. and no one has anything remotly close to it...

heres the pics i promised... enjoy...
(sorry webcam sucks ass...)

Re:My Setup
 

I have one question...should have posted it on a new topic.. but oh well ... If I tap into the PCV vacuum line...for the BOV... will that work or should i stick with the FPR vacuum line...??

Re:My Setup
 

What is that turbo off of? Cause it looks like mine and mine is off a Saab 900 or 9000. But anyways looks clean ;D

Re:My Setup
 

yeah thats what i got it off of... it was one of those newer kinds.... no major shaft play... spins freely... spools up rather quickly... im going to finish this up tommorow... as i am too tired to do it tonight... I still need to install the SAFC.. oil lines.. and modify the IC..

The IC is off an Audi 4000 or something???

The AC was removed to make things easier to route.. that and i never used it anyways... feels like im dragging a cow when its on while i was driving.. so it had to go.

Im going to take more pics tommorow... and try to plug up that damn external wastegate flange on the manifold... i dont want to weld it shut.. as to leave room for upgrading in the future... but if i have to then i guess i will...

dood your BOV rules! rofl thats good stuff. jeff u gotta post that on the front page.

Re:My Setup
 

wow that bov looks huuge! very nice setup!

Re:My Setup
 

Yeah i was thinking it was a bit much.... whats good about it is that it sits right under an air scoop from a carbon fiber hood I bought, so all the noise comes out through there...

Ill either finish it today or on friday.

Re:My Setup
 

im currently modifying the IC... it used to run through the top half of the IC and back out through the bottom half, but im going to make it go through the whole thing from one end to the other...
