Default SOHC turbo kit....check this out!!!!!

well guys i think my D15b7 is going to come outta my car, so i am selling the kit i had on there. first off i want to talk about it a little. i used to have a T25 kit on my car and sold that and peiced this one together. i wanted a fast spooling turbo with a stealthy front mount, a nice BOV, and i wanted it to be simple and reliable. i have had this kit on my car for about 2500 miles and i really like it. it spools hella fast and pulls all the way to redline. the bov just ****** dumps. the frontmount is hidden and looks like i had AC and i only have good things to say about the manifold. i will give you some of the specs on the kit

manifold: SS Autochrome manifold. i bought this manifold because i wanted a long runner manifold without spending more money than my motor is worth. people have problems with the wastegate and it's positioning but since this turbo is internally wastegated i have had absolutely no problems. also the turbo used is pretty light so the weight on the manifold is less compared to a bigger turbo. since this manifold has a T3 flange i had to fabricate an adapter plate to bolt up the IHI. the adapter is very good quality and i will get some closer pics for you. all gaskets are included.

turbo: the turbo i used is an IHI RHB5. i was hesitant at first about using this turbo because it is small but i loved it. it spools so fast. the fins are in excellent condition and the turbo is very clean. spins very freely. in perfect working condition. wastegate is set at 8psi. oil feed and return lines are also included, feed was bought from STAN at fast-turbo. will also include the tapped oil pan if needed. comes with 2.5" DP that bolts directly to a stock or aftermarket exhaust. will have pics for you guys ASAP.

intercooler:this is a sidemount off an old turbo thunderbird. it fits perfectly in the location where the AC used to exist. it rests on the tabs on the radiator support. having it mounted here is pretty damn stealth and i really like it. the charge piping is all custom 2" and simplicity was again the motive. i wanted as little lag as possible so the less piping the better.

BOV: this is a turbo XS knockoff BOV. it sounds just like the real RFL and functions perfectly, the only thing it is missing is the XS sticker on the top the vacuum hose is also included.

management:
i ran a greddy blue box for management. the blue box mated with this kit ran strong and i had no problems with it.

here are some pics. the kit comes with everything except my boost gauge. this is ready to bolt onto your 5th gen and rip. you will not be let down with this kit. it is a blast to drive and i am going to miss it, i just need the money for a different motor. i ran this kit on stock internals.







i was having problems with my radiator and it was spitting coolant out the overflow and i dont have a cansiter on there so the wind blew it all over the piping. i am going to clean everything and paint the piping and endtanks of the IC with my paintgun so everything will be blingin for the new owner

pics arent the greatest and i have a lot more. i just am in a hurry tonight and wanted to get this on here in case somebody is in the market for a kit. i will bump it tomorrow. email me at unsungsohc@hotmail.com or PM me on here. i have vouches and paypal. looking to get $950 shipped in the lower 48 states. shoot me an offer. this kit is complete and in perfect working order. with this kit on my D15B7 i beat a GT mustang with bolt ons and a good driver, a trans am with a 454 and lots of mods(he spun like mad and i was gone) , a GSr hatchback that ran 14.4 at the track, SI's, GSR tegs, and many more cars. it was quick and i am thinking it was in the very low 14 range with that Y8 intake mani on there. it was a blast to drive i just need to cash for a new project.

this kit is ready to bolt onto your car. if i have forgotten anything just hit me up. i ran the blue box with colder plugs and retarded the timing a few degrees. there are guys on this board that have watched it beat those cars, and ridden in the car. this is my daily driver so i built the kit to be durable and friendly to street driving. i am going to clean everything up really good and i will get more pics for you guys. i want the buyer to be stoked and i know they will. the kit is all off my car and now im just drivin on the B7 til i can get a swap. i now remember what it is like to be stock. man it blows......hit me up
