Default Few upgrades for my 6speed FRC

Well, in the middle of messing with the F1X car, I managed to gank a couple of turbos off my car.

My little Precision P trims.... now sporting Garrett GTX billet 67mm wheels. 11 blade design. Should be some decent more airflow, and quicker spool time. Not that it needed it before but, hey, why not.


Old cast wheels...


New, Billet GTX wheels...






To follow the car or others that I/we put together, follow the car page

Major thanks to MikeTurboInc for modding these babies for me. Very appreciative.

Thanks!

-Jamie

If you are carrying them around, bring them when you come by to grab your stuff.

Also, next time you talk to Mike, ask him whats up with this:
TD04L6-04H 19TK3s-10T (my stock turbo )
I'll take some of that billet treatment too!

Been a while since I have updated....the car isn't close to being done but, it's closer.

Here are some pics...

All aluminum hard lines for oil/vacuum and fuel


Everything waiting for Deubel to weld up...


new flanges welded on...no more silicone.




What they look like..




test fit...




Wastegate setup...all new...relax..everything will be away from heat.








new cold side and custom power steering tank...




Long way off...but...on it's way.



Still have to:New coolant system,balancer pulley swap,ebcm mount, hard line everything,...swap pilot bearing and bellhousing... and put it back together.

Hoping I have enough fuel. Anyways,..this is where I am right now.

Love these new clamps.

Thanks bro, cannot wait to see them working. Been dreaming of that spot for about 2 years now. Feels good to finally being squeezing the trigger.

It's a *****,..to put it nicely. Many scars on my arms from this ******, that's for sure. Driver side, bottom for plugs, passenger side, top, not so bad but,..usually requires giving the spark plugs a name,..to show you really care about them and do NOT want them to fall into the abyss of death and sorrow.

Which, has happened. So, I end up usually prepping 8-10 plugs on plug change day...just in case. I am NOT looking forward to dyno day...as I will end up doing at least one plug change likely.

Hoping it makes breakfast, lunch and dinner for me when it's all said and done.
