Looks pretty decent. I never seen your other one, so I can't compare :) What welder did you use to make it? And did you use a radius bit to make the velocity stacks?
I am in Tuscaloosa, though I just not got another DSM, so I am not driving it around yet. Currently I am driving a 1992 Acura Integra GS. Red with black rims. I also have a Yellow 1997 Toyota Supra, that I hope to start driving down here every now and then soon. So if you see me say hey! My...
I would launch with as much boost as possible with spinning the tires as little as possible. If you can launch at 5-6psi and bite and go, then I would try launching with more boost. But say if you leave the line with 10 psi and you spin a bunch, it in turns makes the 60ft worse. So I would...
Amen to that brother. I was only able to buy my v160 at the time because I had the money on hand and didn't have to spend a while saving up for it. It is currently why I am dsm-less right now. Bout a year ago I acquired a wrecked 97 supra that was automatic and I had to make the hard decision...
That's hilarious. I'm sure he's got it sorted, or at least a plan. There are a couple more RWD dsm's running around on this board. 95GSXracer up there comes to mind ;)
Not sure how much you are going to like the r154 Jake. They can hold some power yes, and I like the gear ratio's very much, but if you are wanting to go the toyota route, IMHO you should have just bit the bullet and got the Getrag V160 6-speed. Most people can handle 6-700 horsepower with the...
Is this what you are talking about because they are littered over ebay. Just got to know what to search for.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SSQV-BOV-Blow-Off-Adapter-Intercooler-Turbo-pipe-3_W0QQitemZ230137127218QQihZ013QQcategoryZ33742QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
I REALLY dont understand how that works. Would someone please inform me before my head explodes from sleep deprevation and trying to figure this out. (both not related. LOL)
It may be hard to tell with the turbo on the car, but on the inside front of the exhaust housing there will either be a T1 or T2 stamped on there. The T2 is for an HX40 and the T1 is for an HX35. Look at my gallery for a better idea of where it is stamped. You shouldn't have a problem seeing...
I got $425 in mine!!! LOL. $250 for the turbo, and $175 for the bullseye t3 exhaust housing. A lot better than the 18cm^2 that was on there. Spool is EXCELLENT with this exhaust housing. You can check out my gallery if you really want to see a comparion pic with them. LOL.
Cheap holset!?!?!?! Dont hate now. Of course you can get them ALOT cheaper than Garrett but they are awesome turbos. Balanced out of the box for 50+++psi!!! They spool awesome with a good exhaust housing, make great horsepower, and can be had for great prices. Maybe you didnt see the guy in...
Unfortunately it sounds like you spun a rod bearing. I had this happen to me in my civic hatch one time. Was driving home and heard the knocking start to happen. Shortly after while i was getting off the interstate my car stalled. Started it back up and the knocking was there, but i was dumb...
Even more inspiration for me! Awesome times man! I have a Holset HX-40 Pro version thats on my talon with a bullseye t3 housing. Unfortunatley I think I am gonna be choked up up top being as that my motor is a 2.3. But we will see. What size exhaust housing do you have on your 35? Again...
If you are the guy that contacted me before via email, I still have my blown gt3071r. I have it off the car now and can send it out no prob. You can shoot me an offer. It has up and down, and in and out play, but both the turbine wheel and compressor wheels are good as well as both the...
Well diameter of course would be 3". I would just hit up a K&N catalog and see what's the longest one that they have with a diameter of 3". Just measure how much room you have from the end of the pipe to the inside of the fender and go from there.Keylan
You can utilize a miezere (spelling) electric water pumps on our cars, but that cost some money.Checking the temp sending units would also be a good idea. And have you got that new dakota controller installed yet? That will tell us more.
$1200 for a hg and head stud install? I would never pay that much. So I think you will save some money there as I dont think it will cost that much. But I have never payed a shop to do anything for me, so I dont know. I just do it myself.Everything else you have listed looks like a good...
Did you also just happen to install a fuel pump? If so, the o-ring on the top of the fuel pump is probably fudged and not sealing correctly. This will cause the car to lose the fuel pressure and it will cause your car to take 6-8 times turning over to start like you described.Keylan
I know people that run t67's. It depends on what the flange on the exhaust housing is. If it is a t3, then any t3 manifold will work. You can keep the same manifold after you buy one and if you ever want to upgrade turbos just make sure it is the same flange as your manifold that way you dont...
It's simply called the water temp sender I believe. As far as the OEM's range, I am not sure. I know aftermarket guages (prosportgauges comes to mind) have ones that are like 110 degrees to like 320 degrees. Probably just buy the sender from somewhere by itself.
Looks good man. Love the manifold. And looks like your polishing on the turbo turned out nice. Still havent finished doing mine. Got a few questions1. What radiator (obviously a half size but still)
2. What did you do with the fuse box on the pass. side? How hard was it?
3. What intake...
Do ya'll have it out for me or something? Give it a break, yall are acting like you are 2 years old. That knob happens to have built one of the most badass street supras ever. What have you done compared to him or the viper owner for that matter? Thats what I thought. All I said, is that...
What do you mean, what does hp/liter do? Horsepower is horsepower. Good call though. What do you think all horsepower does? Why do people think they are so cool poking fun at people for stating their own opinions? I dont get it. LOL. Shows just how immature they are.
Its called different opinions man. You called me a ####ing moron, for having a different opinion on something than you. Shows how cool you are. I simply came back and explained why I felt like hp/liter mattered. Still pointing out that I loved the viper and had nothing against it. Way to...
Hp/liter not that big of a deal? I think you are the ####ing moron, as you so lightly put it. I think that is way more impressive than a freaking twin turbo 8.0L V10 making 1500 hp.To be as impressive as lets say the WOTM STREET supra on ITS 6 speed transmission making upwards of 1400whp...
If only I could understand what you are asking through all the run on sentences, grammar errors, and typos. Geez man, usually I can read through it, but thats terrible. Is your exhaust connected? If so, are there any leaks in the exhaust or the exhaust manifold? Did you lube everything in...
I dont see it as a comparison of how many cylinders the motor has but rather how many liters the motor has.Viper 8.0L making 1500hp= 187.5hp per liter
Supra 3.0L making 1000hp= 333.4hp per liter
4g63 2.0L making 600hp= 300hp per literStill very impressive numbers for the viper and its dang...
You can get PTE turbo's that still incorporate all mitsu flanged exhaust housings. Like the SCM series turbo's that they offer. Or if you want to go with a t3 flange but have the factory mistu o2 bolt pattern then bullseye makes a exhaust housing that is like that. I am doing this on my hx40...
Dude that sucks, but lucky for me I bought it from a guy that had already cut it off. He said he cut it off because he got tired of looking for the right size vband to fit the other side. But if you could scrape that vband 90* back up I would take it off of your hands. Also if you can get me...
LoL, whats up Joseph. Yeah, I really would like either of those, but I'm not gonna pay the money for the AMS one and I (like you) am not sure if the DV fab one is still being made. Last I heard, he is trying to find a new place to start producing all of them. But if he does start making them...
Yeah mine had an 18cm^2 and I just recently bought a bullseye t3 mitsu o2 flanged exhaust housing. Granted it is probably gonna be too small, it is still a lot better than that freaking 18cm^2 that I had before that wouldnt even let me test fit the turbo becuase it hit the block where the...
Well why would venom now make a manifold that is worse? Even though I have a magnus myself, I think I am going to swap to something different because I thinking I want something with a larger plenum to better suit my stroker, but I am still debating. I love my magnus though and highly...
Looks kind of like a silencer ring that holset uses on turbos to keep the noise of the turbo down (i.e. the whistle) They use these on big diesel trucks because they push about 40-50 psi so I am sure the whistle is louder to them. HAHA.Here is a quote from the site i got the pictures:
