Only thing left is the money tree to cut loose enough to get the turbo oil lines. Fittings are in place at the front corners of the pan. Should be ready to fire 'er up in a couple weeks!







Once I get it fired up and check for leaks, I'll get the headers and downpipes coated.. I can't hardly wait!!

 

lookin good man

 

badass!!! cant wait to see some numbers

 

Thanks!
I don't really know what to expect, the stock wastegates should be around 7 psi, and the motor is stock, other than a Hot Cam, 1.6 RR, and a 58 mm BBK.
It was at 280 RWHP, slightly rich, with the stock, extremely safe (32-34 deg total) DFI timing.. (before turbos) and on a 97 deg, 100% humid typical Houston summer day!
Keep in mind that it has a T350, and big, fat rear tires, so it loses some on the dyno compared to late models..
I would like to see around 400 RWHP, but I am just keeping my fingers crossed!

 

Lookin' good

 

 

Looks good

You should consider getting some larger air cleaners so you can make it a little easier to breath.

If you adjust the airbox you can probably fit some of these in there www.geocities.com/marcs94z28/4inchinlettube.html

Unfortunately, the filter base is about max, it only clears the hood by about 1/4". Those are both 3" diameter tubes, so it has about twice the filter area of the Moroso CAI I took off..
I think it will breath otay!

 

Lookin good dude! Good job!

 

Looks great!!

Is this a race car or a street car? Is there no front clip on it right now or is it a tilt front end?

I like it!

 

Thanks!

It is a street car.. has a 1-piece fiberglass tilt front end.. There are some more pics on my home page, if you take the links in my sig..

 

what did you use for you collectors on the headers?

 

Awesome man! Where in houston do you cruise?


I had my car at RSI a couple of months ago, but had some probs on the dyno...then threw a rod at HRP sunday night...

Should be back on the road in a couple of weeks...lets run 'em

 

The headers are upside down S10 swap shorties. I cut the stock collector ring off, and had to add a short piece of 2-1/2" pipe to get the turbos in the right spot for clearance on the control arms and block. Then I made a pair of turbo flanges out of 1/2" steel, and buzzed it up. I also had to reroute one primary tube on the drivers side, to clear the upper a-arm. After I get it running, check for leaks, and verify that the turbos make boost in the range I want, I plan to break it all down and get the headers and downpipes coated.

 

Damn you're likely to make people around here jealous with all the room you've got under the hood!
