im doing my actual turbo build next tuedsday but for this week i am just doing the little things like guages and fuel pump and all...
my build list is (if i can remember)-- sts copy rear mount kit with a t72, 38mm bov running on 5lbs that i will run to 8# from a manual boost controller. the intercooler is a 31x12x3 with a cx racing 2.5in universal piping kit. the fuel system is a 255wilpro with a hotwire kit and 60# injectors. the little stuff is my abs kit which all i did was buy some lines and a proportioning valve. and i got a few gauges which i prob will install tomorrow.

yesterday i started the first part of my build which was the abs delete.
i got a pic of the finished product ill see i can post it..
the reason the engine bay is so dirty is cause it was just in a body shop and i dont wanna clean it cause im gonna be in there all week messing it up anyway

(i dont know how to post pics so its actually in the post.. maybe some1 can tell me how?)
on a side note im doing the whole build for a little over 2k and thats with all the parts already bought. so for everyone who said i could not do it for that

 

o and that msd box is moving.... thats not permanent lol

 

Should be nice to ave 50+ more hp man :thumbup:

Godd luck!!

 

you think 50?! i was just hoping for 25 so like 15whp... think i will be at 300 whp by the end?? on 8lbs of course

 

haha dork lol....
Dudee cant waaiiittt. I need to find a damn LS2 block NOW lmao

 

guages in

 

So you have a tc72 and you will be running about 8lbs..And if you have all the supporting mods like upgraded pushrods&springs, fuel pump and a tune.You should be getting ATLEAST a 100ponys. maybe i missed something here?

 

We were just messin

he's lookin to be around 430+ at the wheels.

 

im doing about the same thing but on my 98 TA. Going with a T70 .84AR on mine. Like the guage work

 

Thanks man. I was gonna do the t 70 but I will prob blow my engine so I'm just going bigger so I don't need to buy another turbo once it blows lol how much boost you running

 

lol if i blow my motor im looking for an LS2 lol
Im actually planning to move to a T76 with .84 AR later. Im just starting with this "little guy" for now. Its a cheapy so im not worried about it if i have to buy another. Just easing my way into turbocharging my car.
IM only planning on 8 max PSI to start. with pressure drop form tubing and intercooler i might see 6-7ish but that will be fine, with 5psi i should get roughly 450 HP. PLenty for me to start with, then ill fine tune it for 500 later.

 

I cant wait for my 408. Im trying to talk 95batmobile into going LS but he says they suck

Jk, but yea I want him to get one dammit lol...

btw Justin....

 

LOL some LT guys love their LT's lol its respectable motor, but i do like the lighter weight of my LS Especially with my new RR-Kmember

 

ha ha what ever shayne.. if i remember correctly your going with an IRON block just like me....

and yea its not that i dont like ls its just that built lt's are hard hard hard to find so im wanting to do something a little different...

 

 

You try pushing nearly 900 out of an aluminum block!! lol, It can be done but I like some reliability, I may have it spin to 7.5k hmm

 

The cockpit looks good. I am tossing ideas around on what type of turbo setup I should do. I patiently await your new thread.

 

drrrrrrrrrrrr iron ftw

 

might take a few more days then expected. the kit is having a few delays... looks like its a thrusday build day now

 

ive been wanting to do a rear mount for a few months now, approximatly how much will it cost for the custom piping? Thanks
