No, that is a bad idea. You want the vacuum lines exactly where they are. If you hook them up closer to the turbo, you will be in front of the throttle body, which means upon closing the throttle plate, the engine will be getting vacuum but the fmu will read boost still until the BOV gets rid of...

2" here, but i may move up to 2.25 or 2.5 when i redo the piping

How can you say the stock head "does not flow a god damn thing" when hahn took our head to 450hp in stock form?

same here... over and over and over again lol

Do you have a picture of the turbo you have? I have seen 20g's with T3 flanges and I have seen 20g's with mitsu flanges, so I guess it depends on what you got. As for the rest, I do not exactly know. I would just keep searching ebay looking for oil line kits and such for your turbo. Sorry I...

I got a laugh out of it lol. I would really like to purchase their FMIC just for ease of installation, but for that price I could get a nice Ebay front mount and make all the piping and still have a couple hundred left over.Terry, I thought you got the Apexi FMIC, or is the hahn unit...

I don't really like that design. The turbo flange should be offset to the driver side, not passanger side. That manifold looks like it was made for the neon. You may run into fitment issues with the downpipe. I always wondered why the Hahn manifold had the turbo flange centered and then I...

Terry, do you know if Hahn used slicks for their stage 1 and 2 track runs or were they using street tires? I know when he posted his timeslip on 2gnt he had 1.8 60' times, which are awesome. That could be one factor as to why he was so much faster then hahn. Also that he is running 16 psi...

Honestly, You've been lucky. I congradulate you on your accomplishment, it is quite amazing! But I don't want you to promote doing the same thing you have done. Obviously most are not going to get a great tune/lucky like you have, and then when there motor blows while running 14's, they will...

I 100% agree. I still can't, for the world of me, figure out why people are encouraging him.

You can get it here http://www.jgstools.com/turbo/index2.html But you may be able to find it cheaper on ebay.

I'm working on the 2.4 swap at the moment. :)

At the moment I just use Valvoline 10W 30 regular stuff... Once the new motor is running and broken in I'll switch to mobile 1 10W 30 synthetic

Damn... In light of this post, I wont post my photoshop artwork ROFL

Great. I have a feeling these posts are going to open the "I want to swap an evo motor" can of worms.

The Walbro for the 95-99 GS-T works and only requires the slightest modification to the bracket(just have to drill a new hole).

SIU has sold his car and bought an STi since this thread. A guy in a thread on 2gnt.com ran a 14.3 on 7 psi i believe.But thanks for resurrecting a very old thread.

Oh my mistake, your right I didn't see he said Auto. I am unaware at what power level the auto tranny's are safe up to.

Trannys are beefy. Hahn's testing showed they can withstand up to 500hp in stock form. The clutch on the other hand is a crap shoot. Some guys have had trouble with it slipping at lower boosts, but most guys are able to boost 8 psi without any problems(like me).

Fully Built 2.0 is damn nice too :thumb:

Lets just say I'm questioning whether I'll need stage 2 or stage 3 when I'm done with my setup... :sneaky: then I'm moving to Alaska to claim the crown as fastest 420a there :tease: Just kidding

No. The portfueler and MSnS are capable of running the same psi(actually MSnS is capable of more due to ignition timing), it all depends on the size injectors you use. And for 20-25psi you are probably gonna want bigger injectors.

This isn't something you want to cheap out on, and to be able to run any decent amount of boost, you are going to have to shell out the money. Portfueler is the same price. Now, I'm not sure if you need the controller, or just the wideband sensor, you need to research that. If you only need the...

No SFMU or SAFC. You will need a 1:1 aeromotive(best) fpr, a wideband o2, a couple of GM sensors, and some other stuff. Your gonna have to search on this one, there is a lot of info out on 2gnt.com about it.

Not unless your attempting to drown your engine, the portfueler comes with a very rich fuel map

are you talking about the MSnS? As much boost as your fuel system can handle. There is no limit to boost with the MSnS since it is a full stand alone. The amount of boost you can run will be dependent on your turbo and injector sizes(not taking into account block strength)After doing...

Alright, lets just take it easy here. Lets get back on topic, no more arguing. FUEL MANAGMENT!

What do you care anymore, your selling it for a GSX you traitor! :nono: ROFL

Your last post in this thread was over 2 weeks ago, where you said "ill let u kno if i have any more questions again thanks alot". Your issue was resolved, the thread went on without you. No need to get an attitude about it.

I've seen one or 2 other people asking about this kit. I guess it comes with a box by the tb with 2 extra injectors in it? I haven't yet figured out where they are getting it though.

I don't think what you got was a Star kit, the Star kit comes with a walbro 255 and 12:1 vortech fmu.

AEM EMS. Those are your best 2 options, and as you push higher boosts, those will be your only 2 choices.

ROFL Funny stuff.

The cheesiest? ROFL

Just enough boost to drown your engine in fuel and not have it idle. If you want 550cc injectors, you DO NOT want a 12:1 fmu. You would be dumping rediculous amounts of fuel into the engine. Like I and Velocity(however he spells it :p ) said, either stock injectors with a 12:1 fmu, or a s-fmu...

Oh I thought he might already have the 500cc injectors... Maybe he was just throwing that size out there :confused:

No, you would need atleast a SFMU to lower the idle fuel pressure, and a S-AFC to lower the idle fuel even more. And for that price, you would be much better going with the MSnS or.. the... Port... fueler... whew!

Well thanks, I'm sure it will help someone coughxaviercough :sneaky:

:confused:

NO, thats not what its about at all. He didn't say any of that, it seems like its more of your dream then his. It appears that he thinks he can do it for cheap and easy because he has a salvaged GS-T. Don't encourage him to do something he obviously isn't capable of if he has to ask what needs...

Are you seriously encourageing him to attempt this swap?

Are they? I think I saw the same pictures in Maximum Boost too.

With a speed density system like our cars have, we have no need to recirculate. I don't know if recirculating actually helps keep the turbo spooled, but since I don't have any problem keeping mine spooled, I would never put the work in to fab it up to recirculate.

I don't like the top diagram, it makes the turbo look so far away from the engine... If I didn't know anything about turbo's, I would think "Oh the turbo is usually right after the catalytic converter"

Liar :tease:

So thats how they work?? :p

Are there any rolling around? I know there are probably some sitting on jackstands ;)

I think the old saying If you have to ask, your not ready to do it applies. I wouldn't even attempt it if I were you.

It's looking good, keep us posted on anything interesting you find or any problems you run into. Good luck :thumb:
