Well, after planning on it for a good while and slowly accumulating the kit peice by peice, i have finally turbo'd my car. Its a junkyard turbo kit based around a 42/48 T3. I dont know what to say, and pics are cooler than words, so here ya go:
Ready for all Questions, Comments or Flaming(you will get cussed at)

The N/A setup:


Turbo setup:
Downpipe (custom fabbed by 90BlackCrx) bolted up to Turbo

My friend Drew (CrxDrew) Cuttin **** for clearance

The radiator bracket made to fit my EG radiator.

Drew's failed attempt to weld to aluminum

Engine shots:


Bov Jb Welded to the pipe, holds strong

Downpipe bolted up and on the car, good amount of clearace

Frontal shots:


Arial view of the radiator and intercooler, both gangsta leaned.

I didnt have a gasket, so we fabbed one up out of sheet metal for now.


And thats about it for now. It was definately well worth it, spools up nicely and doesnt burn any oil. Still got a few kinks to work out but, all and all i'm satisfied. Thanks for lookin

89 Si pimpin Any internals done?

 

fuel mangement?

 

Theres no internals as of yet. I had a delta 272 cam before, but it caused a bunch of idle issues, so i pulled it off b4 installing the kit so i'd be able to know if everything was workin out alright. I've got another a6 that i am plannin to build up and drop in sometime in the near future.
Fuel management is TurboEdit chipped pm6 ecu and DSM 450's.

 

Looking good, seems like you finally got that floating radaitor in place . More pics of that downpipe

 

that **** is garbage thinkin you can take gsr's and hype rs now

Looking good, i will have to check it out at the Chicago meet.

Thanks all. Yea I'll be at the meet. If it doesnt blow up again....
I had first boosted it Monday evening, and the next day, while driving, the radiator cracked and it overheated and blew the headgasket. So got it back up and running thursday with a new radiator and the stock cam and shes as u see her now. I'm lovin it.

 

so where's the turbo? and what you doing w/ that engine? My pepsi bottle has more displacement... I'm counting the days until it blows.
