My project progress

Well got my exhaust off,and headers,airbox and etc..

now for turbo mock up

 

What are you going to use for the hot side? Manifolds? headers? What size tubes? How are you going to route them? sorry for the multi-questions.

Im going to be doing the same thing, so i wanna learn from your setup:Handshake

 

im using stock maverick manifolds or at least the plan going to build a Y pipe for the turbo not sure on routing yet should at least have some mocked up pics by sunday

 

is this for real?

 

this looks like it'll work..

 

thats what im going to roughly base it on may mount the turbo a hair lower or maybe on the opposite side

 

that's what i was thinking...lowering it down a bit.

they battery side might work out better...good eye

 

Well the manifold i have isnt like the passenger side one here SO it wont clear the lower area of the shock tower

Got the "passenger" driver side manifold on,looks like ill have to run a 90* pil filter adapter but it clears the tower great ,Boosha hooking me up on one for me to use on the passenger side should be here friday! then maybe byy sunday i can have a full mock up pick before i take it all back apart for paint and final welding. pic of my turbo also

Ill also be repainting the front half of the engine bay due to a few scratches

 

Looking good Good Luck!

 

tried to decide on a turbo location

down pipe might be intresting in any way it is mounted.

 

start on the Y pipe

 

Man your moving along fast cant wait to see your downpipe....

your basically doing R&D for my future build
since i'm going down the same route next year....

 

I have one question... im fairly new to FI and i was wondering how are you going to retard the timing for the boost? does the software program your ECU to do it?

or do you have to use an external box like this one....?



thanks:Handshake

 

Ive got some tuning software and a moates quarter horse chip
