Well my turbo project is coming to an end. Car should be finished this week and then I'll be able to enjoy it fully. Setup is as follows: AiResearch T3 AR .60 turbine, IC, 440 cc Lucas injectors plus fifth 670 cc injector, OBX turbo manifold, OBW external wastegate, IC, Unichip, electronic boost controler with possibillity of controling of up to five Unichip maps (I'll go with three 5 psi, 9 psi and 14 psi), SS Autochrome BOV, Boost,oil temperature and EGT gauges, FPR, 255 lph Walbro, low comp wiseco pistons and low comp turbo head gasket (low comp pistons and gasket were used due to increased compression - shaved head) . And I think that's all.
This is the car (some of you remember it)
and IC on:
WIseco's and gasket in place:
Pic's of the turbo:
This is how close the turbo to the engine block was before reduction plate was put on:
For intake (IC to intake) AEM pipe was used (recently bought of the member here):
And in the end someone once asked about dual exhaust and how it was done. I had the oportunity now so here are the pics of the exhaust piping:
Well that's all. After the car is finished I'll post some more pics of the finished (and hopefully cleaned) car.

I already have the OEM fogs and markers just did not put them in since I was planing to take everything apart again. Will be in after the turbo is finished.

I guess I'm not getting this, as I am not the best with turbos yet. buy you have your AEM intake going into your intercooler? How does that work? Can you show a pic of the bottom and explain how it works? I'm just trying to learn everything I can and ask questions about what I don't know.
Lookin awesome though man!!

looks damn good man.. love the look of your car.
any idea what your compression will be now? since you shaved the head for higher compression, then used low comp. pistons, AND the low comp. gasket.
i was wondering when someone would use the AEM piping as a IC pipe. PERFECT donor. the only problem with it, is it might be a little bit big. should work pretty good.
blizagaxx, it works quite easy, the AEM piping comes around in its normal position and connects to the rest of the IC piping. so instead of having a filter on the AEM, there is more piping connecting it to the intercooler. this then turns the CAI into intercooler piping.
hive, i would try and eliminate the 2 couplers on each side of the intercooler so there are two less parts that can blow off.
