My turbo D15Z1 project.
Let me know what you think. Keep in mind that it is a work still in progress!! Thanks in advance and I appreciate all the comments.
PS: If you have nothing good to say in here, take it somewhere else!!
TURBO VX D15Z1 vtec-e
VX WITH MOTEGI MR-7 WHEELS (GUNMETAL)
TYPICAL MANIFOLD WITH SAAB T-25 TURBO
Overall, car runs great and still retains smooth idle. Doesn't stall and actually breaks traction. This is my first turbo project and thanks to HMT, I was able to finish it up with very little issues. Took my time on this one. Took 1 weekend and five days at a few hours each time after work. After initial startup, started smokin' as usuall because of grease and oil. Made a test run on the road and found no CEL. At first, only had boost up to 4 psi but installed MBC and it rose to about 6 psi. Other than that, she ran fine!!! HMT was a really big help on my project....THANKS!!!

Re: My turbo D15Z1 project.
come on mang... dont post links. Consider yourself lucky, im in class
So, and the setup is....
you may want to put a screen in front of the sidemount, it will get fucked up pretty quickly from road debris. Looks good though

Re: My turbo D15Z1 project.
How much this build cost me?? Not 100% sure but I am 100% sure that it is below $500 
Basically my setup is:
DSM smic
DSM BOV w/intake
Saab T25 with .48 AR running at 6 psi for now
Manual boost controller
BMC Turbo Adapter
miscellaneous couplers/exhaust reducers/fittings
Wired-in 10 ohm 10 watt resistors
supra 440's (going in soon)
FPR from acura 5-cylinder 20-valve vigor?? My stock was ugly as ----!
I KNOW I WILL GET FLAMED FOR THIS....NO FUEL MANAGEMENT (be gentle)
Chipping kit (going in soon)
Dynomax turbo muffler (like the sound of this one)
HKS-style filter
Was out driving it tonight and blew one of the couplers off the piping (maybe not tight enough?) ITS FREAKIN' GREAT!!
SOUNDED LIKE A SUPERCHARGER ON THE WAY HOME!!
Rice, I know!
SAAB T-25
INTERIOR
RESISTORS ALL WIRED IN
