Alright guys I finally finsihed most of my turbo kit. I will be doing a brief write-up on the process when I have time, but for now heres some pictures from the install. I still need a downpipe. I will be having the car towed to a shop for a custom one to be made. Hopefully 3".
List of items/mods for conversion:
Custom Log style exhaust manifold
MHI Super 20G turbo w/ internal wastegate
FMIC
Homemade manual Boost controller (Soon to be Dual stage MBC)
Vortech 12:1 FMU
Autometer oil pressure and boost gauges
Aeroqip hoses and SS lines
Walboro 255lph fuel pump
Custom I/C plumbing (used Hahn SMIC kit w/ modifications)
3" Tsudo Cat-back
3" test pipe
2.5-->3" downpipe w/ flex section (will be modified for fitment at shop)
For the most part this is everything I have, or can remember.. Along with my built and stroked motor..
For the time being I will be running 8psi on stock injectors. When I upgrade injectors I will be using a DS MBC and SAFC-II with dyno tuning using wideband by Slow Boy Racing.
We started the car and everything sounded fine, it was just a little loud with no downpipe

Had to get a thinner fan for the turbo clearance..

Needed to make a bracket for the wastegate.. The housing was swapped so the actuator was LOW.. looks ghetto now but we shaved it up some..

We noticed a pinhole leak on the oil pan when we filled her up.. THIS is what happens when you start the car...
