HomemadeTurbo - DIY Turbo Forum - Project: Random Strike ::Pics:: (updated)

When I first met johnny, he had plans on turbocharing his 1g crx. Well, things didnt go through and he never ended up doing it. Then came along his Integra and last summer he was almost about done with it, and then bailed again. So Finally Johnny has gathered enough ---- to get his car running and all the stuff for his turbo setup. Plan was "lets meet at your work at 11:30am".... 12:00 still no johnny, Finally Dave lee shows up (doing some OBD0 love to johnnys pr4) .... still waiting for johnny 1:00, then 1:30 he finally rolls in.

Nothing like removing a nice hot manifold after the car was just driven for 2 1/2 hours, haha. While me and johnny were working on putting the turbo setup on. Dave was chipping the ecu and putting a turbo pr4 map on. (maybe he has pics of that I dunno)

Since johnny forgot to bring a flange for his downpipe, and any mandrel bends. Beau came buy to give us a hand. Beau had 3 extra mandrels, and he took over on the downpipe project. Here is beau making the custom flange.

I was busy working on the Charge pipes, I found a nice AEM cold air intake (2.5 aluminum) in the dumpster at a local performance shop. Had some really nice bends in it, so I used it on Johnnys IC piping.

Jesus christ, talk about a tranny leak hahah, There was ------- fluid all over underneith johnnys car, He had previously tried fixing it with some JB weld on the case halfs of the tranny.

lol, My guess would still be that axle seal.

The oil return,

Note shown, but you can see that it would be almost impossible to put a wastegate actuator inbetween the comressor housing and block. There was just no way it would fit with the internal setup, or how the manifold was designed. So, I made a little bracket and mounted the wastegate actuator to the block, Then we used a drum brake spring to attach to the flapper (josh ross style) lol

Things came together pretty quick. Johnny showed me and beau what a flat rate boost gauge install ment. (under the hood, through the fender to the dash, haha. Nice john

Alot of people ask this, Why is my ---- steaming when I first start it up! this is very common, all the greese from your hands touching the manifold is all burning off. So dont freak out and think its exhaust, it just needs a couple heating cycles and your fine.

The penis pump in use! Johnny had to pump up fluid in his tranny every 50 miles haha, fix the leak!

I forgot to take pictures of the engine bay, but I'm sure johnny will take some today. Johnny and Beau went out and test drove it first.. They come back and the car is running like complete ----. So then I take it for a spin, It seemed to me it was something in the ignition system, Pulled the cap and rotor, looked like ----, just cleaned the terminals. Popped a new set of plugs in and a another set of plug wires and she ran smooth as ever. Next problem was our home depot 90 degree bend we used off the compressor housing that melted a hole in it. We stopped by beaus work and fixed that real quick with some radiator hose. WG seems to be opening way early (and possibly due to my external mount job) right at 3-4psi. We upped the boost with a HMT Vac T stage 1 boost controller and got it sitting good at 7-9psi.

Yet another classic HMT meal @ Dennys.

Thanks Beau for helping with the DP & thanks Dave for doing the ECU.

More pics & mod list coming soon.
