Well I didn't make any boost but once I fix all my leaks I should be good, I still need to install my catch can and get a manual boost controller but the bulk of the work is done.

^^^^ Thats awesome but yea duct tape dosen't hold boost...I couldn't find couplers anywhere when i was running around trying to find them, guess I have to order them off of ebay

Just go to Home depot and get rubber couplings. I ran those for 8 months.

You need to get some mounts on that intercooler so it hangs level. Hopefully everything works out alright and paint those chargepipes before they rust. ;)

The duct tape is just temporary cause we didn't have the 2.5 and 2 inch couplings. They are just still on there from mockup.

some paint in the engine bay and on the car will really help to clean it up.

but hey if it works it works ya know, ive seen more ghetto setups work just fine... just don't take it to a big car show..just race everyone after :P :P

I would highly reccomend atleast a rattle can paintjob on your car...that way you're not runnin around looking like the partridge family or something.

I'd definately fix some of the "ghetto" parts of your kit first though...like the duct tape on the charge pipes, other than that it looks good.

I like it the ghettoer the better

I STRONGLY suggest you wrap your positive terminal on your battery in leather or something of that nature.

if you dont you'll be sorry.

i dont know if anyone else noticed how he has his restrictor valve before his electronic oil pressure sensor. err unless your just trying to see the pressure the turbo is getting. haha. didnt think about that. oh well. just lettin u know ;) Oh and it looks great!

Loserkidwac 03-14-2005 11:20 PM

Re: Turbo Installed!! (Pics)
 
Yea thats what I had in mind, I wanted to see what the turbo was getting for oil pressure

When ur @ homedepot go to the conduit section... they have like adjustable metal straps to hold conduit and other piping in place. Thats what I used and it works great for holding my IC straight.

Re: Turbo Installed!! (Pics)
 
setup doesn't look bad. I have brazing holding my tial wastegate onto my hf manifold :)

Loserkidwac 03-16-2005 12:08 AM

Re: Turbo Installed!! (Pics)
 
Well I went to homedepot and I grabbed a 2" clamp from the PVC pipe section and it didn't fit right so I just went with the duct tape again!! I acctually made some boost too...only 4psi but she runs...It spools very late i think for a .48 a/r somewhere around 4000-5000 rpms so I'm guessing I still have an exhuast leak, I'll have some time this weekend to work on her...Matt

Oh yea I also cracked my radiator so I am getting a half width one, that will make things a little easier! ;)

nonvtec 03-16-2005 12:11 PM

Re: Turbo Installed!! (Pics)
 
I had duct tape on my charge pipes for a little bit :-X Mine was the good stuff, held 10 psi too. 8)

How much did you pay to get the ---- stitched up? Tell them they did a poor job!

Loserkidwac 03-16-2005 07:57 PM

Re: Turbo Installed!! (Pics)
 
Well hopefully I won't pay a dime for it cause of workers comp. That pic is from the morning after, took a shower and the water made it start to bleed again it is getting better now...Matt

Loserkidwac 03-16-2005 08:15 PM

Re: Turbo Installed!! (Pics)
 
It is so close that i had to bend some fins on the rad to get it to fit right but I knew I need a half width and figured I just destroy this one before I put the new one in!! >:D
