93 vr bw475.
My committee brothers said I should do a build thread, I'm not really big on doing this for a few reasons. Anyway here is a quick list of parts for this build 4msd coils, FFE trigger kit, Gato turbo manifold kit, BW475, 2 Bosch 044 pumps, 6-injectors, custom LIM & UIM manifolds & to top it off I'm going to run the MS3X yes you read that correctly!!! I will post pics & more information as this build comes together.

Before I go any further I was to thank the ones who supported me one way or another, My woman Melissa, my heart Nayla daddy loves you, my committee brothers Jorge, Joe, Simon & Luis!
Pics of when I first got her last year. http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...ps34c19991.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...psac6be2fa.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...ps8552e1c3.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...ps89be7289.jpg |
She sat for some time before I picked her up, so we went thur the braking system first.

This setup was never Dynoed due to me being lazy even after Luis bitched at me about the oil leak, I put it off one time to many & ran her low on oil ��.

So I pulled the motor & did a HBP (canal) inside joke but you will get after seeing the pics.

Can you post pics of the Gato Manifold to see where the turbo sits? Also how come you are not running intercooler?
|
So as of now there is a dummy block in the engine for muck up manifolds.

The cooling properties a much higher so there is no need for an intercooler, if I am wrong I will install one no big deal. I don't want this to turn into an "fuel vs fuel" or " no intercooler vs intercooler" this is one of the reason I never started a build thread.
|
Only reason I ask is because I've seen this on full blown drag cars but not on a steet car. Im here to learn lol I run e85 as well and if I dont need the intercooler then I will take that sucker out as well.

Lol, I will need to inspect this new setup on first startup, if there are any leaks I will take away your keys until all issues are rectified. :suitdance:suitdance |
Looking great so far! That BW is a big boy! Definitely like to see numbers on this one. :)

What happened to those bbs wheels you had on the car? If you sell them let me know.

Ask and ask the person you bought the car from if they bought those wheels from a montego blue FD if so those wheels belonged to me about 8 years ago. I want to see if I can get the rear rim.
|
I will ask my friend if he is willing to sell them but as far as asking the PO where he got them from why? Not to be a dick but what does it matter if you want them, who cares where they came from!?
|
Here is a small update, I ordered the Borg Warner S475 Billet High Flow 11 Blade Compressor
Wheel. http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...ps5ca91737.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...ps3715d3a5.jpg |
Because if those happened to be the wheels they had 3 or 4 cracks indicating why you would only have 3 wheels left because maybe one of the wheels was not fixable any more reason why I sold them in the first place. Anyway have fun building your FD.

No big update just a couple of parts came in waiting on the turbo manifold, should be delivered next week. http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...ps0f031cb1.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...ps0221f585.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...ps010f33f2.jpg |
Okay I got in my Gato manifold kit, this is not a completed manifold. It's a good base for clearance issue.

Are those sleeves for intake? Do Gato offer the similar shape for exhaust sleeves? Anyway nice set up you have it sure will make some serious hp on methanol!

/Lasse Lasse, there are velocity stacks that will be welded to the plenum. I think their is a company that makes Titanium exhaust sleeves, like the shape of the velocity stacks. I will look and post the link for you & thanks for the comment :icon_tup:. |
I started working on the turbo manifold got the bends right tacked it up for a real welder to Tig.

Great fab work.

I love how you have everything laid out showing everything you need to rebuild it...... including beer :)
|
What's your end goal on the build, what you looking to make on the setup?
|
davlilly.
Yes beer is one of my tools when I'm working on my car, but I don't drink when working on others cars. SilverBullet93. This is a weekend toy & track car, so no A/C, radio, PS or ABS. if I can get a 9.7/9.8 pass I'm happy. |
FFE trigger kit.
