Setup
Garrett T3/T04B .48 exhaust "S" trim from Hotrex (bought from Blaast performance)
Mini ram horn manifold made by me
2nd gen DSM 450's from Ebay
PM6 chipped by me running Turbo edit
Charge pipes made by me from www.LSDmotorsports.com
Oil line kit from www.LSDmotorsports.com
Bar and plate intercooler from www.LSDmotorsports.com
Autommeter Ultralite Boost gauge from the HMT classifieds
3" Stainless Steel Downpipe made by me
Turbonetics Creep gate from the HMT classifieds
Greddy Knock off BOV from Ebay
Custom Traction Bar/Crossmember made by me
6 puck sprung clutch from www.LSDmotorsports.com (not installed yet)
All said and done it cost less than $1000 to buy the car and build the turbo kit. It runs very well thanks to Jordan (Mahcivic) lending me a .bin for my PM6. I tried to make a basemap but I suck at turboedit I guess. Its only at 5 psi because of an exhaust leak before the turbo. I didn't get my gasket in time so I made one out of sheetmetal. It didn't work that good and I ran out of time. One more minute and I would have been divorced! I didn't want to drive it open downpipe too long. My 3" Kteller exhaust should be here by Wednesday I hope.

Special Thanks:
HMT for all the supprt and ideas
Mike at www.LSDmotorsports.com for coming through with all the parts.
Hotrex for lending time and fab help
Ne3ek for helping get that pile of ---- BOV to work
Mahcivic for a good running .bin

Lastly my wife who tolerates this ridiculous hobby of mine!

Re: $200 CRX boosted full install pics

Re: $200 CRX boosted full install pics

Re: $200 CRX boosted full install pics

Re: $200 CRX boosted full install pics
 

fucken right

Re: $200 CRX boosted full install pics
 

Nice and VERY clean. Another great HMT NE Crew install by David himself. I never heard of that turbo before. Is it a .42/.48? Looks good man. Need to paint that valve cover though. LOL. ;) ;D

install looks nice and clean. i like it :y

Re: $200 CRX boosted full install pics
 

That valve cover will be stripped and painted this week when I adjust the valves. Turbo is this. http://blaastperformance.com/index.php?p=t3t04bs

Re: $200 CRX boosted full install pics
 

Looks good Dave. Just curious why didn't you just make your own exhaust instead of buying one from Kteller since you've got some skillz at fabrication and just bought some 3" tubing from Summit or something to make your own? Either way great work and to be honest I don't remember the last time I saw a really ghetto looking setup here on HMT for quite awhile. People here be moving up like the Jeffersons. 8)

Re: $200 CRX boosted full install pics
 

his exact words to me today were.

yeah i got it running, but only on 5 psi, and i have an exhaust leak,

and its slower than death. hahah

it will rip soon though, toay was a skakedown run

Re: $200 CRX boosted full install pics
 

Sweet deal Dave! Glad to see it finally finished. All those fabrication skills sure come in handy. What are you going to tune it for in terms of boost? Also, hows that type-s knockoff sound?

Re: $200 CRX boosted full install pics
 

Glad to see it come together, came out clean. One you get the little ---- figured out post some pics/vids. :y

Re: $200 CRX boosted full install pics
 

For the price I bought the SS Kteller kit. Seems more of a hassle to make it than it worth.
