hi i am from homemadeturbo.com I am james, sam's son, i make custom turbomanifolds and do some buisness with a few people from here. i just thought i would post a few of my pics of my car so other people around the world could check it out.




these runs were done in 3rd gear with the stock clutch wich is reflected by the power dropping off (i shut it down at 7400rpm because it started slipping so bad) the engine is a b18c1 i am running 9.5lbs of boost on pump gas i am using a huge garrett bar and plate intercooler (core deminsions 10 inch tall, 3 inch thick, 26 inch long) my custom equal lenght turbo manifold which is for sale on homemadeturbo.com, unorthodox underdrive pullies, skunk2 intake manifold, and t3t4e turbocharger which came from down2turbo off ebay (stage 3 turbine 48ar turbine housing, 57trim compressor wheel 50ar compressor housing). ohh ya the injectors are some (from what i was told, got them off ebay and they run extremely rich to be 450, they are black and have a wierd green top on them) 450cc injectors and fuel management is uberdata. i dont have a wideband so this is tuned with a autometer air fuel meter.

 

on the ride and power

do you carry those intercoolers on ur site?

 

i dont usually sell these intercoolers if that is what you are asking but, if you really wish to buy one i could possibly get you one for 350$ plus shipping.

 

Does anyone have any experience with these manifolds i was looking at buying one?
Nice ride and awesome power #'s

 

how in the hell did you tighten down the upper exhaust flange nuts/bolts?

 

Wow thats impressive. Nice intercooler.

 

Who cares where this pic is, I like it!

Nice job. BMC.

You know, the way that looks. It was probably a lot more accessible before the wrap was put on there.

 

heres the mani w/o heat wrap, better view of prob how he got to the bolts





hrmm guess it doesnt work like that... anyways

unless you got a special one

they're usually .50A/R compressor with a .57 trim wheel

turbin-= .48 with stage 1 wheel.

 

stock insides???

 

15.480@120mph? someone needs some new tires or slicks or somethin....wow

Red X's, Pro! Would have loved to have seen the bare essentials. Got another server, Bro?

 

i thought you cant use heat wraps to wrap up the manifolds cuz it can cause cracks in em? as i was told by my hot rod mechanic.

 

heheh if u look at the pics its fluxcore welded .. well il know its mig . mgiht be gas i think its fluxs

 

um, so this isn't a real dyno at all, is it?

g-tech pro? isn't that thign that plugs into your cig lighter???

 

yes it is the gtech pro competition, i havent had time to take it to a real dyno yet but if you wont to see some more impressive pics here they are, and yes it really was 70-120mph in 5 seconds (i doulbecheckd when i looked at my speedo)


yall mightnot trust the gtech, well i dont completely trust it either but iknow its got the powre to burn the tires in 1st-3rd on the stock clutch.

 

*sigh*

take it to a real dyno...and then come back with numbers

a g-tech once told me that i was making 6whp, and another time told me i was making 276whp. That was in the same night...and the same car...which was making 191whp. The closest it came to the right number was 214whp...that was with like 5 hours playing with it. and yes it was setup correctly.

so yeah....100% non-believer

 

yes i understand what you are saying but that 70-122mph in 5 seconds is the truth, i checked my speedo to find out how fast i was going and it really said 122mph

 

well, that's all well and good....
not dissing, just curious to see some real dyno numbers

btw,nice car
