Re: Updated pics of my setup (TurboDC4)
What's the deal with the green car in the background? Do you have more pics? It looks good.
By the way, that connector that is holding your manifold/charge pipe together.. is that from an AEM Intake? Where can I get one?

Yeah, just wait. The guy just came and appraised the damage. I should have an estimate tonight... 1 fender, 1 bumper, both of the shroud htings over the wheels, bumper lenses, and probably the whole plastic piece that goes under the front of the motor. Should be enough $ to cover the 98+ conversion. Maybe even an R lip.

Looks good!!! How much did it cost you total? How did you make the charge and intercooler pipes? Any problems? Give a little background on piecing together your own kit.

Re: Updated pics of my setup (InTeGrA B18b1)
No clearence with the TiAL. I think the turbo must be a t3to4b because i didnt have to shave the block. Very close though. Any idea how I can find out for sure what it is?

Re: Updated pics of my setup (TypeR 01 886)
I know the rfl sounds great at 8psi, but what about from 1psi up. Do you get any flutter when at closed throttle at minimal boost. I did with my blitz dd. from 1-4psi so i loosened it all the way and the turbo still surged. I ended up cutting the spring and now it works fine, but I would like something as loud as possible with no surge.

Re: Updated pics of my setup (spooled b16)
posts like these just make me want to turbo my slow, and crappy b18b.
just wondering though, are you're running 8psi on stock sleeves/cams/pistons/rods?

Re: Updated pics of my setup (DC4 2 NV)
The bov surges only at partiall throttle. And it only does it sometimes. As far as my motor, its almost 100% stock. I rebuilt it myself before the turbo install. The only thing aftermarket is the rings and acl bearings. Overall i love my kit.
