Pictures up!!
 
I've got some pics up finally of my turbo project. Unfortunately the seals in the turbo were bad so i've had to yank the turbo and am looking for another one. Instead of posting individual pics I'll let everyone go to my site.

not bad man
so you have an internal wastegate but it doesn't run into the downpipe?
straight into the atmosphere??

Yeah, we decided to just vent the wastegate out for ease of contruction of the downpipe and it actually doesn't really get that loud.....of course I think that is because it doesn't open much either. Stock actuated at ~9-10 psi takes me right up to redline anyway and by then I'm shifting.

Nice work on your car, but did anybody watch any of those videos in his site? Jesus, that Turbo Busa is just crazy. I was watching that speedo climb from 100 to 160 in like 2 seconds. 18psi on pump gas. 8)

Exactly why I put that up.....crazy!!! I know someone here that has a 50 shot no his bike that's setup for drag and now they are thinking about making it forced as well. I'll try to get some pics when they start that.

you guys are talking like that internal wastegate is an external. I'm confused, do you have an internal or external wastegate? I dont see an external wastegate........

UPDATE!!!!

Just picked up another 14b off of ebay from a reputable person. Should be here in a day or two and hopefully I will have her up and running again by this weekend.

nice car looks just like mine, thats a d16a6 in there isnt it?

DavidZC 10-21-2003 09:32 PM

Re:Pictures up!!
 
That it is. I plan on boosting until it's done and then picking up another d16a6 block, sending it off to Golden Eagle to get it done right and putting some high quality components into it and then probably going away from my homemade turbo setup to an equal length manifold and a bigger turbo.
