Stock Block Turbo Installation





There was a hole in the brand new oil pan, had to weld it up.



















This is before I welded the intercooler piping.
Tear Down








See the oil in the turbo?
















Cracked ring lands on cylinders 2,4,and 6. Cylinder 2 had 90 psi compression.......*&%^ you E-Manage.

I'll never do it in the car again, it's too easy to drop it out of the bottom.
When i built it i pulled it out of the top..still should have dropped it.

The godspeed intercooler has been great. The intercooler and piping cost me under $300.. Didn't quite have the funds for the $1500 Greddy intercooler kit. What kind of intake temperatures do you guys see under boost?

I recently built a dual 3 inch exhaust, that i modeled mostly from AAM's 3" competition exhaust. I used megan racing mufflers, but i'm about to add some resonators because the drone is crazy without the silencers in, and i hate the look of silencers. I'm not sure of the brand on the test pipes, i got them from mark at SGP a long time ago, but they bolt directly to the back of the turbo. They are 2.5" diameter.

Hello Haltech!

Relay for my clutch-activated two step. I used the factory clutch switch to trigger the relay.

Final product. The black engine enamel was the third paint.. the first two were melted right off by gasoline.

I thought Haltech didn't work with the Revup? Does the proEFI work with a Revup?
