Just got the setup running only a few days ago. I fabbed everything myself. There were some things I messed up on with the manifold, but live and learn, my next one will be much better. The turbo is a 16g, intercooler from a Ford Probe, 450cc inj, SAFC II, and a cheap ebay bov.

Went out to the track today running 12psi, running rich, clutch slipping bad. I didn't launch, just wanted to see my traps and got a 13.42 @ 108mph. Clutch was slipping pretty much through all gears in the higher rpms.

 

Still looks Good though

 

setup looks clean....props on doing the work yourself.

 

wow 13.42...was this run on street tires? 16g...kinda small, very impressive though.

 

Good job.

 

Thanks guys. That times was on street tires, but keep in mind I did not launch at all. My 60' was something like 2.4*. The 16g is a small turbo but I wanted a proven turbo with quick spool. I get full boost by 2900rpms, great for the street. Mid 12's is what I think it'll do with a tune, new clutch, and some drag radials

 

very nice i bet you could hav goten a 13.41 if u cleaned ur engine bay

"Would you spend 5 hours to shave .5 seconds?"

**** i know i wouldn't....

that makes allot of sense,

nice setup, how long did it take to make that manifold.

I made it on my spare time at work. Took about 4 days at an average of 3hrs a day.

Thanks for the compliment on the dirty engine bay GS-Rdriven Fact is this is my daily beater that I bought only a month ago. If I ever do plan on building the bottom end, I'll go ahead and clean the bay up as well as that ugly *** valve cover

 

Good Job!!! Get a clutch in it and hang on.
