Compound Turbo Setup Holset style

[turboglenn]

Glad to seetis still coming along! NOt to mention it's looking great at the same time!

Something tells me there's gonna be a lot of driveline parts being broken and upgraded once this thing hits tarmac!! I imagine the horse-power and torque are gonna be insane!

 

[viperlp01]

Haha I hope not. If they break I guess they will be upgraded. Hopefully the auto keeps everything together. Kind of getting tired of working till midnight every night but its all worth it in the end. Finished wiring up the Kiggly manumatic mod today and I am going to work on the seat mounts. Ordering Tial springs tomorrow along with some randoms to be put on to finish up the sensor wiring. Battery mount and catch can set up will be this weekend and hopefully fire her up on Monday(My techs want to be here when she fires.)

This is getting exciting! Everything is looking great! The big red Volvo Holset out front looks hungry... I can't wait till its time to eat...

Charge piping is complete and I also got my ratchet shifter hooked up to the trans.

Drove the car out of the shop today! Some adjustment to the ratchet shifter and maybe a oil restrictor on the turbo feed but it might be from sitting so long and the little bit of oil I added to the cylinders.

 

[Purple_Demon]

Looks good!

I cant wait for some videos and ripper shots XD

Finally made the exhaust and finished the vacuum routing. Working on getting the car looking like a car again.

Aaaaawwwwwwwsommmeee!!!

That exhaust system looks dope!

 

[GRAVEDIGGER]

That exhaust is going to be talkin some serious s*%#!

While backing the car out of the shop I did a little 2 step to see how she likes the compounds. Built 10 psi stupid fast. Compounds are going to be nuts.

 

[pinder91]

Awesome stuff, John! Gotta get my butt over to the shop and see this thing.

 

[Blurred Talon]

Looks awesome!

 

[Superman]

That is a killer turbo system. Great build.

 

[rrussell]

Looks Awesome!!! Very nice progress!!!

I'm excited to see it building boost and launching..Great work ..I wonder if one day it will be the norm ?

 

[viperlp01]

I am also excited. I had a set back with a shift solenoid issue and some wiring to fix up but more updates to come.

 

[dacowgod]

This thing is going to be intense!!... I didn't realize how many compound setups were floating around these days... I have one up my sleeve on my new project..My plan is also single digit, but to have 20 psi before 2000 rpm and a powerband that is incredibly wide... Mine will debut next spring likely still waiting on parts for the short block ;-) and the transmission work.... pretty much everything else is all ready to go... My intention is to have run 9's and still have airconditioning

Yours should be in the 8's with that setup Kudos

Sick mean nasty car you got there. Please post a video once you take it down the 1320.

 

[viperlp01]

Got the trans almost working properly. The ratchet shifter misses 2nd gear on up shifts and hits it on downshifts . But so far so good.

 

[AK Maniak]

Haha that thing looks ####ing mean. That turbo peaking out from behind the head lights is dirty! More pictures!

 

[BeeRacer930]

Great build. Can't wait to see a video of it making a pass.

 

[99gst_racer]

Let's see a side shot with the new wheels and tires.

 

[viperlp01]

Wow is this car going to be fun this summer. Got her up to 25ish psi and the auto is going to make all the difference. Its crazy how smooth the power band is. I can see why stuff brakes so much less with the auto. Waiting on a fuel pump to get here so I can try her out at 40psi.

I love the setup, saw the car when I was down there at your shop last week. I have a compound setup planned for my Talon, as a daily drivable road race track car. I think the wide powerband lends itself nicely towards the demands of road racing You guys can count on seeing my car in your shop in the future.
