Hi. So here is my 1992 s6 single turbo FD3s
I have had it for a while now so there will be a few posts in quick succession

The day i picked it up



It has had a bit of a hit in the front and bent the rail and needs a rad support

Ill create a build thread soon for my progress pics.

After a whole bunch of work it looks like this now
Here are some pictures.







Its weird seeing it outside.

Thanks, Its just a little Nightsports S5/T04b hybrid. Just trying to keep it as responsive as possible on the street.
Not after huge power.

Well, The day finally came,
finishing off the tune today.




All loaded up and ready to go.


Strapped down ready to slam some boost into it.


All in all the day went well.
Had a completely dead battery in the morning so had to pull the one out of my ute for the day.
Had a dead spot in the accel enrichment that took a bit to find.
once we started on power runs found that with the 7psi spring in the wastegate the backpressure in the manifold was opening the gate so the engine was only getting about 4 psi of boost
Added an extra spring and we were away.
Overall happy with the results and will be plenty of power for sunday drives.



Low boost 10PSI: 218KW (292hp) 341Nm (252lbft) ATW
High boost 14PSI: 256KW (343HP) 402Nm (297lbft) ATW
