here is what it looks like currently

the front end collision set me back a long while for my turbo plans and i didnt have insurance so my girlfriend had to pay for all of it hahahaha.
i made her get me the jdm headlights, cornerlights, and fenders.

i then bought a full 3" exhaust

so i had my stock exhaust laying around and some guy on craigslist wanted to trade his d16z6 for my stock exhaust
so i met up with him and got it and put it in a couple days later, the timing was all fucked up thats why i think he traded it for nothing but it runs like a champ now, might need a headgasket soon but no worries.

pic of the swap.

goin to pickup a fmu from my buddy later for $30 and hopefully pickin up a 1g dsm intercooler
and if i get enough turbos to send to blaast there will be my oil lines and injectors hopefully.

well thats it for now let me know what you think.

sweet little car, i ------- love 4 doors

you pull that motor with the chain hanging from the cieling ?

you better fix your camber or you will be buying tires often

Re: my z6 turbo project
 

one more thing everybody will tell you fmu's suck. but they work perfectly on low boost applications

Re: my z6 turbo project
 

How much did you pay for that turbo? :-X

Re: my z6 turbo project
 

funny

Re: my z6 turbo project
 

If that Saab was front wheel drive, I'm pretty sure that's a T25.

If you're going to use an FMU, you should have just left the D15 in there and ran it till it popped. Then swap in the z6 and get some injectors and ECU and turn up the boost. At least that's what I would have done.

Re: my z6 turbo project
 

i got the turbo for free haha and yes the saab was front wheel drive.
i'm only goin to run the stock 7psi i think it is and the fmu will be more than enough for right now.
after a while i will chip my p28 but fmu ftw right now...

Re: my z6 turbo project
 

chipped p28 < FMU !!! FTW
