Thanks to this forum! HMT setup done!
Hey guys, just finished my turbo setup a few weeks ago, been super busy, but heres a little pic page I made up:
http://www.mines.edu/students/p/pkruse/finalturbo/ most of the inspiration i got from this project was from here and turboD16. Jeff, I'm sure you hear this a lot but I owe you a lot of this, getting me inspired a year ago about how sweet this whole business is. thanks everyone! i'm LOVING the boost and my car hauls at only 6 psi. Let me know if you have any questions, hopefully most of the pics are self explanatory. |

yes, i gotta put my interior stuff back in. YOu may think its ghetto, but it seriously works like a well oiled machine. Well, IT IS a well oiled machine. I will be making a new full 3 inch DP soon, but for now I have no plans to change my charge pipes. They seriously seal like a mofo, almost no pressure loss whatsoever. |

---- yeah, I like it. You'd never expect to get smoked by a Civic with a couple bikes strapped to the roof. ;)
Does the hood not close or is it just popped in the picture? What are you using for fuel management? Uberdata? I see an OBD conversion....but your timing apears to be highly "modified", suggesting an AFC hack type thing. ??? __________________ Best Car Insurance | Auto Protection Today | FREE Trade-In Quote |

hmmm, i think it may be a few degrees mechanically advanced... but i dont have an inductive timing light so never tested it for sure. ???
dont worry though, its about 9 degrees electronically retarded ;D via uberdata |
Re:Thanks to this forum! HMT setup done!
haha, you guys wanna hear a funny story. Some ricer on the freeway last night wanted to mess with me, at first i thought it was a WRX STi cause it was black with an sti wing, but i figured out it was a cavalier with an STi wing ::)
We did a few rolling pulls, and i beat him in 3rd, 4th, and even 5th gear. tehehehe. |
