Recirc is just about complete. Just have to weld in the 2" V-band and one end of the flex coupling:



Angle of entry it to the down pipe:







Couple of welds :





Very happy with the clearance, you can see a bit of the 3" down pipe but that is about it. Nothing stick below the skid plates:




I wish I could keep this.


I am having a heck of a time finding a good place for the Exa pump. All the good spots are now taken by the exhaust piping, and there is hardly any room in the lower half of the engine bay. I will have to get creative.

Other than that this one will be ready to box up soon, and go ot the lucky new owner.

 

Very Nice Work..... First Class

Where do the Rear 02 Sensors go?

 

Lookin good! Makes me want to upgrade as well

 

you can mount the pump on the frame rail behind/below the headlights.

Thats the stock position for all the SFR kits

 

or if you are me and run open dumps you can still use the rear trans bolts just on the drivers side.

 

yay!!


This is my sickness....I wanted one with a turbo up in that location from the get go but sasha was just too far away for me to bully him with my muscle.

I would like to sell my other kit pieces to konrad but he needs it by may and i do'nt want to be without some boost this summer. It's time for me to make some of this money back (of course not by street racing )

 

Dibs on your old setup!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want to see just how much modification either setup will require for a RHD Z.

 

I had dibs on that kit last week lol.

Jeff I can run my old setup for now, when you ready to get the new kit than I'll get yours.

 

This project is winding down, and I am starting to pack it up.

I did manage to find a good spot for the scavenge pump:





Some last shots before boxing up:






The charge pipe that houses the BOV and MAF sensor is not in the picture. I have to polish it still.


And just the hot pipes:




Getting the rest ready, as I go through the check list:



I am sure the new owner will post some dyno numbers once the kit is installed.

 

Looks good work of art.

 

must be the angle of the pic, but the pump doesnt block the oil filter?

 

Not at all..and I have an oil cooler setup as well. Still a decent amount of room. Trying to find a decent place for the pump just makes one realize how little room there is to work with on these cars....and the pump is rather compact.

 

Beautiful work. Have you considered using oil-less turbos? That would eliminate the need and the headaches of a recirculation pump. Just a thought.

 

If konrad ends up not wanting it then I will definitely give you a good price on it.

sweet. that helps to have a little extra time. With board exams and patients it might take me a little time to get them swapped over. Of course we have to give sasha time to build more of these kits. He's high in demand these days.

 

Lit looks amazing bp!! I would consider using more than one bolt for the pump but other than that it is pretty solid

 

Sasha, what type of air filter is that??

 

Kool Blue part number: KUD7501-3

 

Do you have a rough estimate on pricing for this kit? If you don't mind me asking.

Also, I'm blown away by your craftsmanship. Just amazing stuff.

 

Thanks.

With open dump wastegates it would be a bit more than the mid mount kit due to the extra wastegate.

Recirculation is a bit more complex as you can see by the pictures so that would of course be more $.

 

Now I don't know whether to go this route or with the original!!

Is this applicable with an 03' DE motor? Excuse my squidness
