nice build man...got any more pics like in the engine bay or of the custom mintake manifold oh and if your running 1600 secondaries what primarys are you running and onle last question...is that water pump like a beefy aftermarket cause it looks like it can take a beating??

Trupain

I'll get a more recent picture once i get the garage heat fired up... its realllly cold lol

my primaries are stock. The secondaries should be able to easily compensate for the additional fuel requirements.

Oops! I meant Custom Exhaust manifold. the intake is just a port matched stock NA intake.

For the water pump I went with a new casting rather than reman. I think this is the one I used... but I don't believe I paid that price lol.

Wow that is nice, good job. I'd like to see the firewall and intake clearance on it with the big compressor. Love the turbo manifold too, custom made or aftermarket? Be sure to keep updating with the install.

the angles of the oil drain don't looks that great. i dunno if it will hurt anything though?

Any "uphills" on a drain line is a no no. I would fix it, unless you like it to smoke. Since the motor is out, use a T2 front cover. Take the 90* fitting put it on the turbo and run the line to the factory drain on the T2 front cover. You would need a adapter flange on the front cover, it should be the same one you have now on the turbo.

Looks good.

The engine is actually in the car now but I will probably change the fittings on the drain line at some point. I actually expected the turbo to be located a few inches higher, If I had mounted it before tapping the front cover I would have moved the drain to a different spot.


The Manifold is custom. had an exhaust shop weld it up for me. It isn't quite what I wanted but it should work if it doesn't crack.

I cant see it that clearly but, on the bottom left picture.
Those two lines going into that Y, is that the fuel line for the secondaries? and is that the regulator hooked on the intake manifold with lines going to the primaries?
Where is the return and feed line?

Also, you have coolant line hooked up for the turbo yet?

Trupain

The feed line attaches to the bottom of the Y fitting. The left line off the line feeds the primaries. The line on the right feeds the secondaries. Both fuel rails run back to the regulator mounted on the intake. The return line is coming out of the bottom of the regulator. After putting the engine in the car I had to make a new bracket and mount the regulator more to the left to make room for the throttle cable. oops >.<

Hot side specs?

Looks like it says A/R .60 on the comp housing. T3/T4 60-1?

Definately fix that drain!

On a journal bearing turbo, i wouldn't even worry about coolant lines.....that's even if the turbo(s) of your choosing has provisions for them. Alot of them dont unless you're rocking bb or factory.
