why do i feel im forgetting something....

if you wanna sell me any of that stuff, thanks, if not, im going to keep everyone posted on the progress.

 

so what is this going onto? and lets see some pics

 

its probably getting swapped into a na fc...lol

 

whats the 4ft of 2" steel pipe for?

 

^^^ hehe


i bought 2 feet of it to cut off probably about 2 inches for the manifold spacer.

the rest of it i think i might use to eliminate my cat

aux ports eliminated anyway.

 

Why only 2 550 injectors? And what are you going to do for a fpr? I'm currently getting parts together for a similar build. Just can't seem to get a definite answer on the fpr. Keep us posted.

 

You'll need ALOT more fuel then that.

 

I have 2 550's out of my 88 turbo vert I will sell you for $55 shipped. PM me if you want them.

 

I'm peicing junk together for my 6 port turbo and am planning at least 720cc secondaries. I already have four 550's but know that's not enough, I just have to decide if I want 720's in the secondaries only or for both primary and secondary. (Those with a Haltech E6A I already have and a Walbro pump I still need to buy.)

Then again, I already picked up an RB downpipe and presilencer, and have supplies for a mandrel bent aluminum intake system based around a Volvo 760 FMIC.

That reminds me, I have to hock the TII harness and computer I bought before I found the Haltech... budget six port turbos are part collecting nightmares.

 

yep i knew i forgot something, i want 720's in the secondaries.


if im not msitaken though, didnt aaron only swap out 550's in the primaries, i dont remember him doing anything about the secondaries.

hopefully he will chime in.


hey kai, 99% sure an aftermarket, or any, downpipe with presilencer fits because of firewall issues, or are you using the tII UIM and LIM?

 

Er, he had 4x550 injectors, since thats what a stock TII ran. And you want larger in the secondaries.

 

yeah
hmm than i guess ill run 4 550's unless the fuel injector fairy decides to spring by.

 

where did u get the e-mange from? $260 sounds like a good price

 

EBAY YO!!!

brand new

the exact price was 286.98 so i was a little off, still good though

i gotta buy that stupid cable though

 

Not sure why you would need the turbo oil neck. If you are using the NA intake manifolds (which I assume you are since you mention an exhaust spacer) the intercooler pipe comes in from the passenger side. This does not interfere with the neck.

You're going to want at least 4x550CC with an upgraded fuel pump. I ran that arrangement with an FD fuel pump, and had fuel for about 10 PSI safely.

 

u gotta love ebay - i kno i do. $290 still sounds like a good price. what special cable r u talking about? the ecu harness?

 

Aaron: yeah the guy i bought the turbo and manifold off of threw it in the box for free, if anyone wants it they can have it, i think he thought maybe i was using TII UIM and LIMs or something, idk. and i jsut bought a walboro fuel pump and am looking for 550cc injectors at the moment, its the last thing *i think, pray* i need. Besides intercooler piping, and couplers and stuff. how much did you spend om your pipihng total aaron?

Tito: the cable im talking about is the one that goes from the e-manage to the computer, not nessicary, but you get acces to like 16x16 fuel maps and stuff, + alot more options.

 

I rented a pipe bender, so including the $160 worth of rental, about $360. I ended up buying a 10 foot length of stainless 2" piping, then a bunch of random couplers (rad hoses).

 

some guy in an sti on campus just commented (made fun of) on my flat black rx7. haha. pointless to this thread, but itl be funny when i blowoff louder than he does.


oh yeah, and run 12's and walk him.

oh yeah, hes stock btw

*bites nails nervously*

when he woops my *** ill be sure to let you all know

 

wow, you are brave!! i was nervous posting this for the sarcasm!! this thread is WELL known if ya dont say the right things. oh well, dont forget the gaskets, the damn things are so expensive!! luckily i found some for sale on here almost brand new!! now that my alternater just died its gonna set me back a little longer what kinda bov are you using?

 

ill be running a SSQV

i always liked the sound its not a wshhhh, its like, a whip than a whistle, its amazing.
plus its impossible to get vac leak, it pulls instead of pushes, or vice versa, i forget, none the less it cant leak, and i got it for cheap.

rediculous sound clip

 

It's funny that the STi would just need to buy exhaust and it'd be faster than you again...

 

k-rock if you want i have a pair of Denso 720 secondarys $75 shipped and there yours i have them here just got back from getting them cleaned and sold my turboII so i dont need them...
TwEaK

 

yeah sonic, thats true

oh well, too bad i only spent about $25,000 less than him and i keep up

oh and about the gaskets and stuff: you could always just use a lot of that blue gasket goo stuff, or silicon

 

His car is under warranty .

Also 'blowing off' louder then he does makes you lose in a different way .

Good luck though.
