Default My turbod *29 pics* (fixed pics)

EDIT: I fixed the pics.. I made them all the same size, this is the best that I could get out of the webcam. Sorry that it took so long, cardomain was giving me problems.

Well after long researching here and on a couple other forums, I started to turbo my car. I started in November and finished it up just before spring. It is a combination of custom parts and a kit. It works for now, until the engine will be built, but I just needed boost.

Well, I know that everyone wants to see picture threads.. so withouth further delay, here are the pics.



























































Well, if anyone has any comments, questions, or flames. It is all welcome.

Sometimes we complain because of the huge pictures, now I will complain because they are too small
Looks great, good job, Now take it to the track or dyno, let's see some numbers

change those stock injectors now, whatever pull you feel now is nothing compared to what u will feel with the larger injectors.

good luck

ya, the pics are small.. they were taken with a webcam.. i don't have the luxury of having a true digital camera and I am too cheap to get pics developed.

The stock injectors are still in because I am only running like 4.5-4.8 psi (it is set at 5.5 but with the intercooler the engine only sees the 4.8ish)

The injectors are going to be changed before I turn up the boost.

So far, the clutch is slipping a little.
I went to the track with it, but I didn't get to run, I was kinda pissed about that.

It pulls pretty decent, I raced a 99 Mustang GT (he had a short throw shifter, 3.73 gears, full exhaust, intake) and he couldn't pull on me, he left me off just off the line, but the turbo spooled and I caught up to him. (full boost at just above 3k, one thing I like about the greddy turbo setup, or the smaller turbos)

I will try to see about making the pics larger. I had to host them from cardomain, and they only have some enlarged, the ones on Turbod16 are a little larger, but they do not show up here.
