My sol is now turboed! *Pics*
 
Well after 15 hours of installation this weekend everything is done. My setup consists of:
- Garrett T3 turbo bolted to HF manifold with 2.5" downpipe.
- 450cc injectors tuned with SMC+.
- Eclipse 2g side mount intercooler.
- TurboXS RFL blow off valve with 2.5" charge pipes.
- Stainless steel AN-3 oil lines and AN-4 coolant lines.
- Homemade boost controller set @ 6 psi.
- Autometer Phantom boost and air/fuel guage.

The only real problem I ran into was that the wastegate was hitting the block and I couldnt get the manifold on all the way. So I drilled new holes in the WG bracket to slide it in a lil bit more, grinded down then block 'webbing' a lil bit and added an extra exhaust gasket to make it all fit tightly.


56k beware:

I have to agree that is a nice and clean install. I would suggest moving that air filter away from the turbo. That thing is going to be sucking up the heat from the turbo and the engine. Your damn lucky you don't have a/c!! Your engine bay looks tighter than mine.

sorry i have a question that has nothing to do with the turbo ;D anyway what is the coolant resivor bolted to, the radiator? or a hanger coming off the headlight?

nice!
gotta love d15b7, i'll be rockin a similar setup one of these days.

how do you like that t3? how fast does it spool up?

I actually like how you have the filter right on the turbo, it looks cool. Probly suckin in hot air... but whatever, compressed air is hot as F*CK anyways, leave it up to the intercooler to cool it.

Very nice setup. Dude, I would kill to have that much room up front! >:( I'm still staring at that massive air filter that is magically connected to the turbo... wow. I need to update Jeff on my "completed install"... lol. It's almost funny how it turned out.

my del Sol boosting project was completed tonight ;D
I went to EKU and taunted the ricers with a car that actally went fast. I tried to get some of a Firebird, but they turned out to be in the left turn lane. >:(
pics coming as soon as I buy an FTP ;)

Re:My sol is now turboed! *Pics*
 
Hahah, firebird. That was my first kill and I started in second gear and didn't have the pedal down.
