50 trim & Big greddy FMIC installed

[DSM BLUE TURBO]

Actually installed this about a week ago. Big ups to Ted from WYLD KARDS for helping with the install.

TURBO td06 50 trim- Very straight forward installation. Hardest part was banging the water pipe, which didn't take that much effort. Water lines from the block has to be plugged. You have to tee into another water line to get water in the center section. For oil feed I used the RRE, for return I used a my old filed down return chopped and just used some high temp hose clamped off both sides. I got a 90 degree 2inch silcon bend from TURBOHOSES.COM and some monster ass clamps, its hold fine. Other than that (thats all I can think of as of right now), it was pretty straight forward.

FMIC- Install was alright. Removed bumper, and EVERYTHING underneath. Me, being the dumbass that I am, Lost the mounting brackets, so I bought some 90 degree bend pieces from the local store for a dollar. Ted drilled a hole in one, and we used it for the top mounting bracket. The bottom one was a bi*** to get to so we left it as that. It was a bi*** cutting the bumper. I had to use a hacksaw cause I couldn't get a dremel in time. And you guys know how you get impatient when your almost done.

Turbo is bad ass compared to the dinky T25. Even at 8 psi . Turn up the boost to 16 and it haul assssssssssss. Still kinda worried about boosting that high with no logger. I have 550s and misc fuel upgrades minus the AFPR. Right now Im at -8% across the board. But at 1 bar it feels faster than shit. I cant wait till i get 660s ( i have 550s).. I gotta get back to work now, but any questions or comments ask away..

How is you tracktion and how does it spool well or slow i am thinking of getting a 50 trim also.

any pics?

Maybe someday I'll have one of those

You can use the 255lph low pressure without a FPR for the 50 trim. Unless you already have a high pressure FP

It actually doesn't spin at all. I know what they say now when talk about bigger turbo, more lag equal less spin...

I have a 255 HP pump with no AFPR as of now. :X

Give me a run through about your average run. When does full boost hit and how is your 0 to 60 and 60 foot take off. I have been thinking about getting a big trim as such but im very worried about the effects so im trying to find all the info i can oh is your car a daliy driver and how is driving on the street with it .

 

[DSM BLUE TURBO]

street driving is fine, 60 i dont spin as of yet, but lag is horrible. I was at the races this weekend and was getting spanked left and right off the line. I think its because im still learning the car, but lag is definently a problem as of right now. boost starts at 3k full boost at 4k.

Thats the average spool for a 50-trim...you'll get used to it very soon.

A boost threshhold of 4k rpm isn't "horrible" by any means, you just need to re-learn how to drive the car.

I would not suggest using any 255 lph pump (be it high pressure or low pressure) without an AFPR.

Yeah i know, it just feels horrible being spanked by a integra off the line. :O I have to totally learn how to drive the car again. Oh and My weapon -r AFPR is on its way. =)

What kind of times are you running

 

[DSM BLUE TURBO]

Just got it on. So don't really know how fast it'll go. Crossing fingers for 13s as of now. Track time next month =)

why -8% is this what felt the best? or did you actually dyno tune to that number.

just wondering.. I just dyno'd my car, and have diff numbers (of course diff. turbo, same mods really)

Let us see the #'s of that dyno tune.
I just dyno tuned my car. Used a VCE and did a FWD dyno.
I'm dissapointed.
