Congratz Danny, we should try and get a run in during the meet friday.

 

Awesome you will be hooked on the added power.

 

I hate you Danny!!! Joooo!!!

Congrats..... I didn't see this coming

 

I cant see the pics for some reason, but congrats. Be careful with the new found power...be ready for a$$ sliding at all times, the day you arent ready it will bite you.

 

Congrats on the FI. I just recently went your same path. Have fun with it!

It seems like everyone is going TN and getting rid of their TN at the same time.

 

Thanks, and gimme your old house Oh wait, that's in Lakeland isn't it?

 

We'll see

 

I know me niether

 

Are you at work? They're on cardomain, here's the link http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2293040/3

And I know what you mean about the *** end sliding out, it'll surprise the hell out of you.

 

I see the pics now that Im at home and not work, nice job on the install.

 

Thanks Bert, I can't say it wasn't fun

 

Getting the wastegate on was the hardest part for me, other than that easy...

edit-we were lazy and didnt disconnect the sway bar so it was awkward.

 

That wastegate kicked our collective a55es with the sway bar off lol, you got skills man...luckily I had that skew driver, what a life saver that little tool has proven to be...

 

now first things first... do not turn up the boost more than what you have it set for the factory boost by TN.

make sure you do the proper upgrades before looking for more performance out of your turbo. ie... cooling with a better radiator, oil cooler, 1 step colder iridium spark plugs and such....

then plan to do fuel upgrades and then hit the block.. and you have a sound investment given that you find a engine management system that works best for your goals!

good luck!

 

very nice

 

Don't forget to add your car to the Turbonetics Owners Club Garage too...

I hear ya, but right now I'm enjoying the 8 lbs of boost ALOT next upgrade is a new clutch/flywheel...I need a new clutch like YESTERDAY lol

 

i see alot of the people who have blown there motors with this kit were at 9.8 psi. is OE 8 psi that much more reliable? and is it possible and even more reliable to set the kit to 6 psi with a proper tune? i would think that 6 psi on this kit would be even more reliable then the vortech and just as fast if not more so because of the torque. even if it were slightly slower it should still be a huge improvment over stock. and i just can't deal with the noise the vortech makes so thats out of the question. so i would think this would be the key alternative. any thoughts/ info?

 

I think the only reason motors blow with that little difference is because

MAIN REASON
1. Your fuel is close to maxed at 8 psi
2. The engine management and tune they have
AND WHAT HELPS MOVE IT ALONG
3. Your adding that extra amount of stress ontop of the motor combined with the things above.

Feel free to correct me if im wrong.

 

lookin very good man....enjoy it!
