No numbers yet. Still in the process of building. It's gonna be a while but I hope to have it done before this winter. We started plumbing while we wait for the real turbo to get here so we can start working on the down pipe, hot side of the intercooler, and exhaust. Besides that there isn't much left to do. Just wire it up and small nick knacks.

 

No new updates?

 

No sorry. Just doing all the small stuff now and you know how that is. But I can say we are almost done with the plumbing and it is insane looking. Almost everything is braided lines. Even the radiator and boost lines are braided to an fittings.

 

The small stuff is the details that most people leave out of these writeups, but really makes the project. Can you post some more pictures?

 

**** is sick i want da intake manifold

 

Just wondering if you've totaled up the cost yet. My build up is running me $20,000 with the cost of new housings, ceramic seals, custom twin turbos, etc. Maybe I should have gone 20B

 

Everything looks Spectacular! Such a nice Road Race setup.

Want to sponsor an FC for NASA in Ohio? ;-)

Where did you pull the main source for the Vacuum Manifold from?

 

Main source of vacuum is coming from the intake plenum to a distribution block. I should have some pics this week or next. sorry its taking so long for pics but I don't get to work on the car too often. I don't even want to think of the cost! I thin i spent over 2k in lines and fittings alone.

 

2K on lines and fittings alone? Damn, I'm wondering what it's going to cost me. Now I have to do a custom gas tank so I can have a 2nd exhaust in my set up.

 

hi jon! tell the twins ur ride is comming out nice, im impressed.. i cant wait to go for a ride like old times
you got more bling in that setup than mr-T has jewlery

 

TwinsTurbo,
congratulations to you and Jack for the record breaking lap.

I assume a similar manifold was running on that car?

Yes the manifold pictured on page 2 post #36 is the actual header on jacks car..some people were worrying about the "spool" and not understanding what we were trying to do with this set up..i guess our Unlimited RWD national record speaks for its self.LOL

cant wait to see figures

What size is that throttle body?

thanks

Some update picks for you guys.

the real turbo is on. It is a BorgWarner S383. One of 3 in the country.Pretty special piece, but nothing is to good for our boy john.


the wastegate dump is almost finished. after we fit the D/P we will finish fabricating the W/G dump


Pretty Sexy.....


the pluming is almost finished also. we will disassemble all of the blue fittings and adapters and have them anodized black to match.


the press sensors for the MoTec ready for the wiring harness.


And we also are using an AIM sports dashboard. John is not a big fan of the jet cockpit look, and neither are we. the AIM shares all the MoTec data and has built in progressive shift lights and warning lights. Much cleaner.



That is what we have for now. we should have the D/P fabbed up shortly. We are really getting close., it's almost hard to believe, LOL...

Beautiful stuff man, just awesome.

I watched the buttonwillow video of the record breaking lap....and have to say you build some serious cars. Keep it up!

 

Thanks for posting the pics Grim!
The throttle body is 95mm.

 

I noticed the EWP, I was wondering what brand you are using and how any experience you have with it has treated you.

Sorry if I'm thread derailing. . .feel free to PM me if you don't want to post it here.

 

looks amazing!

What size swivle fitting is it on your rail, an8 or an10? Redoing my fuelsystem this winter just wondering if I could fitt an an10 like that behind my generator?

Thanks!

 

WHAT THE HELL JON!!!!!..did'nt know you were building a monster, to bad I missed you when I went down there couple weeks ago...I will be there in march and your car better be done...James gave me a ride in his car but I can imagine how yours will turn out....INFINIT FOR LIFE...

I want your water pump set up

BTW..I need some new Infinit stickers....

Baldy.

 

the fuel line has a -10 an 180 fitting on it.
the EWP is from meziere. It's my first time using it but I am sure it will do the job.

 

I love dicks all up in my mouth

 

haha who's computer did you leave your name signed in on..


I don't know of anyone who makes decent thickness slip joints, can't see that lasting, especially since it looks like 304 .. as in 5+ years lasting..

 

i really like your wastegate design, i love the entire design actaully. awesome welds awesome everything.
