home made turbo system

nice, i don't really like the idea of doing the under the k but if i can't figure a way to turn the headers around i might just have to do it. I'm kinda confused on what you mean about the intercooler side inlets??

there's no way of flipping the stock manifolds and being able to use them that way w/ the stock k member.. its just not possible. the intercooler inlet and outlet are both on the same side.

intercooler used on first setup:

Intercooler used on current setup:

so the one that has it on both sides just don't cool enough like the one that has one on either side???

sorta.. the smaller they are normally the less HP they can support and less cooling effectiveness they have.

thomas i know me and you have already talked about this, so how much for you to build me a kit and install it?

you want it tuned to? Materials + parts are going to run around $2000-3000 depending on what kinda deals i can find. I can probly do a kit capable of 500+ rwhp for around $4000 installed and untuned.. tuning will be around another $500-700 depending on where you get it done at.

how much would you say if i was to make my own system like you had there i was asking about with the t70 instead of the gt45 and do the basic same stuff with the ebay cooler and make my own piping and stuff? just wondering

all new parts... $2500. reason why my 2nd setup was so cheap was b/c i bought a used turbo, used wastegate and used BOV.

 

[voidfinger]

i probably would get used ones too, exept the turbo :0

[voidfinger]

[Brian95SVT]

you laughin at me saying forged bottom end?

 

[voidfinger]

naw i was laughen b/c it was a good response to that statement made.

 

[19mustang95]

your gonna forge your motor but only look for 450-500...


that number seems kinda low to me to go through all the trouble and money to only get that much :dunno:

 

[voidfinger]

well i wouldn't take it near 400 without forging though.
