here are some more pictures, mods please forgive me if all the pictures are not up to code.

More pictures.

Cell phone pics of the engine build. The built engine has ~ 4000 miles on it. 1000 of which the car wasn't turbo, 2500 running 4psi boost because of an HKS wastegate issue. the last 500 was at an inconsistent 10 psi, again because of the wastegate actuator. The problem has been fixed, the car is now running its stock actuator.

You know how bad I want this car. It hurts me to see it go too. Hurts even more that I cant buy it from you. I wish I had the money up front for it. Let me know if anything changes or if there are any other options.

yesiownaskyline · 01-18-2006, 01:34 AM

nice car... you are running how much boost and still using the stock ECU correct?

Its running the stock msp wastegate actuator with no boost controller hooked up, I don't know how much boost its running because I haven't driven it since then. I'd have to ask my dad.

and yes its running the stock msp ecu. I won't hide the fact that this car needs some engine management badly, the kind I can't afford. The stock msp computer is working fine with A/F ratio's in the 9.8s and fuel cut at 4-5 psi on cold days.

Hey Ben thanks for the pictures you took.

turbovybez · 01-18-2006, 03:40 PM

No problem man. It was my pleasure. Wish I still had that camera. Time to get another one. Maybe I should swing by and check on the Speed one day. make sure its fine and all.

Speed_Racer · 01-18-2006, 11:38 PM

feel free, its not going anywhere.

mp3moose · 01-18-2006, 11:56 PM

Curious why you put the bov before the intercooler.

Speed_Racer · 01-19-2006, 04:16 PM

sounds louder IMO.

turbovybez · 01-24-2006, 08:10 PM

I must comment on that. The blow off valve is louder in front of the intercooler.

Speed_Racer · 01-24-2006, 08:53 PM

thanks for the comments guys

CasopoliS · 01-24-2006, 09:01 PM
