I give you mad props man, good job, most people wouldnt do anyting like that, but its origional, one of a kind, even the IC placement ;)

Re:One of the most Ghetto, Homemade Turbo Setups Ever (56K Warning)
 

It is doing something.Its soaking up all the heat created by the turbo :P.I hate those things.
Otherwise nice setup.

NEW SETUP
 

well... i ditched that gay ass intercooler, and threw on a blow off valve I had sitting around from a turbo mazda...

I like the setup better this way... I clocked the turbo now I'm boosting at 10psi (on stock injectors :o), so tomorrow I'll head down and get a carb spring...

Re:One of the most Ghetto, Homemade Turbo Setups Ever (56K Warning)
 

Nice... and much better, Your customer isnt goinna mind that the turbo is smoking?

Re:One of the most Ghetto, Homemade Turbo Setups Ever (56K Warning)
 

now thats ghetto :D
but dosent look too bad

Re:One of the most Ghetto, Homemade Turbo Setups Ever (56K Warning)
 

10psi on stock injectors is good for like 2 days before you blow it up due to running VERY lean.

::)

you dont even have an FMU to raise fuel pressure... stock fuel pressure with stock injectors running boost code for 240cc injectors with uberdata? i didnt know there was boost code for stock injectors...

haha... nah... it stopped smoking for some reason (maybe because the turbo hadn't been used in a couple of years???). I get uptight boosting 10-11psi on my intercooled civic w/ 345cc injectors, no way I would run my car like that. As soon as I saw it was boosting at 10pounds, I parked it... I'm going to get a carb spring today. Even if I were using bigger injectors, I wouldn't boost 10psi due to the fact that there's no intercooler.
