whoa that is a rust bucket! :)
that is a nice setup! is that a custom aluminum air box your turbo inlet goes to? and that hole on the bumper is the intake for it?
looking good. i like the sleeper hatch!

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up
 

yes I made a ram airbox for my turbo.

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up
 

Man... just make sure that rust doesn't ------ tooo bad.... I love that kinda ----.

My next car is gonna always be covered in mud... and maybe some mismatched panels... and lots of turbo power too.

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up
 

can you say sleeper..looks good dude. Rusted cars are sick

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up
 

wow thats soo sleeper... bet nobody thinks that thing is actually fast... lol

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

I plan on buying a clean stock looking 4g hatch with a blown motor to throw my engine in.

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

I am very interested, what kind of filter is in there? Do you use it for a vacume source for your pcv?

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

my car has cancer all over it, it keeps getting lighter as it gets older. Combine that with turbo and stock steelies hiding the other mod (good brakes) and it'll be another sleeper, only mine will have a radiator black intercooler

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

Right now I have a paper filter that I found at autozone that would seal up nicely. I am not using it with my PCV what so ever. Im thinking of getting a foam filter. Ill post everything in a week or so.

sleeper as.. reminds me of my old civic ef3 b16a t3

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

only difference is the RHD and JDM front... im lovin it.

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

Man keep it sleeper!!! Never go away from that. Awsome setup. VERY descrete!

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

damn man the turbo set-up looks good. nice work :)

what brand intercooler did you go with?

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

what kinda manifold is that? looks good

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

::).......................... :P very nice setup man!

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

---- didnt even see that.. thanks for the point out ;)

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

That ---- is sweet! YOu should spray the front of the ic black so it doesn't stick out so much. Show some more of the ramair box.

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

I helped with the instal and design, Im the older brother. For the intercooler he is going to mask the fins and mist the front of the tubes with black paint to hide it and add a expanded sheet mesh for rocks. Itll be much more discrete and protect it from rocks and theft...

The air box is aluminum riveted together with a bellmouth inlet on the turbo. The paper filter forms a arc with the corners around the inlet. We are still in the process of making bellmouths for the inlet on the bumper and into the airbox. We are hoping for a 0" H20 pressure loss at 30mph with cold air. This will help out tremendously with preventing detonation with the 10.2 CR. The intercooler also has ABS diverters as seen in the top picture to force the air through the intercooler instead of giving it a path to go around it. You can also kinda see the side diverters in the nose view.

If you research paper vs foam vs oiled cotton the pressure drop difference is like 1 cm of water and the filtering ability is ---- with foam and oil cotton, so the decision was simple.

This week its getting tuned and the random ends are being pulled together.

As far as getting a new body for the car... the windshield frame is rusted out so he cant replace the windshield after this one and fro some reason the steering is really mushy, besides that its just rust.

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

Wow, you guys realy did your research and put alot of effort into increasing the efficiency of the setup. GREAT WORK!

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

may i ask what radiator that is?

Re: Preveiw of my turbo write up (PICS)
 

Its just a delsol rad. I just hacked the crap of my hood so it would fit. I am also using a shitbird manifold.
