Took these pics yesterday, finished installing the wastegate and Downpipe this morning
Set up is:
JDM b16a
t3/t04e 60 trim .63 ar
custom manifold
tial 35mm
3" downpipe
custom piping with unknown bov
starion IC
DSM 450's
Uberchip

 

That manifold looks so out of place next to the Starion IC and piping

Cool setup though, how are you liking the Uberchip?

 

What kinda manifold is that?

 

Ghetto fabulous y0!

I gotz the same snail

What boost you plannin on hittin? Built internals?

I plan to run 9-10psi, stock internals...I just got a 1.8 block that i plan on building up, maybe i'll have it done before summer is over

 

Damn nice for a ghetto setup.

 

looks good for being a "budget project".

 

CAI will be easy not getto, cause you just spent $$ on the materials themselves, i mean turbo kits at cost are probably like 1700-2300m and teh other 1300$ markup is probaly for labor

 

That is one nasty *** valve cover!

 

Paint your IC piping black, won't look so ghetto.

I did that today

 

Nice.

 

hey whatever works. looks good

 

that manifold looks mean....i bet that can flow pretty well. what does the intercooler look w/ the bumper on--it seemed a bit short?

 

I dont' have a bumper at the moment so who knows..lol, i painted the piping and IC black so you really don't see much of it anyways

 

my car is mroe ghetto! My bumper is partially zip tied on

 

as long as it works. My charge pipes are ziptied so they don't hang.

 

zip ties

 

those pics don't show it but when i did the oil feed line this morning i managed to include some zip ties

 

Hard to tell with the angle of the pictures, but how's the oil drainback from the turbo to oilpan routed? Looks like it's about horizontal, maybe even uphill a little? I'm probably wrong due to the picture angles, but that'll create a problem if it's completely horizontal or uphill at all.

Sweet setup,

Ryan P.

Every radiator swap Ive done has been with zip ties
just so much easier then re-welding mounts and all that hoopla. if you need more strength, double, tripple, or even quardroople the dosage
know what would be the ULTIMATE? metal zip ties

 

i've always liked pagong's manifold. it looks great on your setup.
