First, thanks to every one here for your help. you might have helped me and not known. I did a lot of searching. This forum is by far the best.

This is self installed on my Elantra. Still have to drop the oil pan, bolt the down pipe on, get bov welded on, install charge and intake pipe and I'm done.







I know my engine bay is ugly so don't tell me. I don't care.

I know this isn't nearly as exiting as Gary or Viper's turbos, but it is a start for me.


Props to Gary and Viper.

It makes me giddy to see you guys put it down. Some day I will put down some real power.

I am not using the fifth injector or unichip. I am using 440cc RC engineering injectors, SAFC, walbro fuel pump.

Next is the auto -> manual swap.

 

looks like fun man. think you will break 200whp?

 

Holy Frankenstein! Your going for the sleeper look inside and out. That's awesome. Good luck!

 

way too dirty... please clean the engine up, then I might be able to see the turbo and say something about it. tongue.gif

 

That is an ugly manifold. But hell, I give you props for trying man, that's for damn sure. I just have to get my manifold finished then I'll start my project. Good luck man.

 

OP..... I guess you didn't read this part of the post

"I know my engine bay is ugly so don't tell me. I don't care."

I think I will be at around 200. I will be dyno tuning as soon as I am done.

The manifold it the alpine. I don't have the heat shield on it yet.

The enginge will be cleaner after the install is over. That is the least of my concerns now.

 

it's just so dirty that I can't see your turbo in it.

 

lmao.gif where is it? eew *throw up* that's the butt- ugliest engine ever. the reason there's no spiders and cobwebs in there is because you probably burn them alive.

haha just scaring you. LOL i bet you were thinking you were getting flamed by a moderator and you were about to find my IP. it looks really good man! actually that is a beautiful manifold. imagine the structural integrity on that thing. it looks really nice! that engine bay looks like mine and the other 80% of the people on these forums. now do you mean Alpine Turbocharger? Tell me how the quality of that is... and tell us about the gains.

OP is fokkin with ya haha.gif

 

Best of luck man, you'll love having boost. I've been in a Alpine turbo'd tib, and it's just a teaser for the real stuff.

Hope you enjoy bro.

 

Wow that manifold is a log if ive ever seen one. At least yur force fed now. Goodluck on that tranny swap.
