[greenmeanie99]

Ok as of right now its all done but 2 belts, spark plugs and Megasquirt. Here are pics enjoy and ask away.

 

[VelocitàPaola]

Nice!

 

[greenmeanie99]

one more

 

[VelocitàPaola]

How many pieces is your LICP? I see that there's a coupler in between the BOV and TB, is there another one between the BOV and IC?

 

[greenmeanie99]

Lets see 3 pieces from the IC to the TB and three pieces from the Ic to the compressor

 

[VelocitàPaola]

Hmm... good to know.

Mine is one piece from the compressor to the IC, and two pieces from the IC to TB. I don't like how it fits now, though. There isn't enough flex in the LICP; I'm thinking about adding another coupler to it between the TB and BOV like you. Thanks for the info.

 

[greenmeanie99]

Yea I like it that way too because its easier to move around and install when you have more pieces. I made my own pipes BTW

 

[XMasta19]

...what turbo is that?

 

[greenmeanie99]

Garret T3/T4 .57 trim with a 60mm turbine wheel

 

[eclipsers-t]

how long before you are able to put in on the dyno?

I see you have rebuilt the engine and I would like to see what numbers you put down with it.

Keep us posted!

 

[greenmeanie99]

Id like to fire it up tomorow then dyno it by August. I really wana hit over 350whp at high boost and a good tune. I have the parts needed I think

 

[sccrAdidas15]

yo pete, this is AdL33 from turboforum, deff. looking nice there good luck!

 

[XMasta19]

ohh...from the pics it looks bigger than a 57 Trim...what's the turbine a/r and compressor wheel?

 

[greenmeanie99]

No its definately a .57 trim. I put an upgraded compressor wheel from garrett. I think* its a .50 A/R turbine but I can check later today

 

[illeffekt vr-4]

looks good.

 

[eclipsers-t]

It looks good man. I have all the parts I need for a complete rebuild and now I have the motor out. So I will be getting mine done soon as well.

 

[XMasta19]

Yeah, let me know....the turbine side should most likely be .48a/r or .63a/r. Then was asking about whether a Stage 2 or 3 wheel etc. Where did you get it from???

 

[redeclipse7782]

See if you can clock the turbo and inch or so counter clockwise so it meets flush with the intercooler piping. Its on an angle and that coupler looks like its holding on for dear life like an anklet on a fat woman. Also the downpipe looks to small 2.5 inches?? Change that out to 3 inch asap you might not be able to do it right on the turbo but the closer the better buy an inducer and run 3 inch all the way back.

 

[greenmeanie99]

So close almost there now its just the megasquirt I hope to take it home today.

 

[XMasta19]

Keep up the good work. Looks like you got a bit of cleaning up to do still before gettin her goin, but keep takin pics and updating on here. We'll be able to help out with any issues you may come across

...To mr. redeclipse, I'm sure he would clock the turbo some more if he could, but there's just a tiny little problem in the way....the starter

 

[greenmeanie99]

thanks MS is going to be the only trouble if at all. Its being wired up now and we would like to start her up tonight.

 

[DSMcrazy3]

Nice dude! Congratulations, can't wait to hear how she runs!

 

[totaleclipse_05]

Congrats man, that's a sexy color car you got there as well. (Mines the same.. haha)

 

[greenmeanie99]

Thanks everyone

Its a hair from running were finishing Megasquirt today

 

[4UH8ERS]

eek i hope you incorrectly installed the oil pressure gauge, because over 100psi is not good.

edit: nevermind i just looked at the tach and vacuum gauge the car is not even running.
