Thanks to Joel Stith for helping me with the charge piping and pulling the all nighters...

"Let me know whatcha think..." HAHAHA

:aigo:where did you get that ffim?? i want one!!:aigo:

someone's using a holset turbo..... hehehe.. hx34 or hx40? and i assume you're using external waste gate?

Made it... PM me if you want one...If I get 6-10 people seriously wanting some I'll make them cheap.

WH1c...essentially the HX35 and no...internal. I bored the hole out to 32mm and machined down a big block exhaust valve for a flapper....cut the old one out and welded a washer onto the new one. Looks completely stock.

i meant the hx35.. i fat-fingered it.. haha.. that WH1C has a much bigger exhaust housing than the HX35 doesnt it? good idea on using the valve for a flapper.. i used an hx35 on my supra a few years back.. held 26psi nicely however without an external gate, that thing would not hold anything less than 26. it made TONS of power, no dyno but easily in the 450 rwhp range considering my clutch wouldnt hold rated at 510lb ft.. however the small exhaust housing caused egt's to climb too high and damaged my ring lands. ahh well.. very aggressive turbo. full boost came on violently.. hits very hard.. i liked it
also, can you send me a few more pics of your manifold? i'd like to see it in a little more detail. i'm currently working on my own, but yours looks great. and if it's a good price, i'll scrap my project and buy yours. also, what type of t-body?

I bored the hole out to 32mm .

really can you tell me how you did that, i have always wanted to learn how to do that.

it looks good dave

I see you're in Ohio. :thumbup:

Setup looks SICK! That FFIM is really nice. Get some more pics.

PM me...what parts do you have done on yours?

 

[DavidBaustert]

Some CAD work I did on the manifold...

Completely irrelevant but I love tits...

 

[SupraDupra500]

have a shit ton of mods but cracked a ring land and time for a rebuild.. ahh well.. had teh ebay gt45 on there (which measures more like a 4094) which was rebuilt for 8k miles and has almost no shaft play. 50mm w/g, hks type 2 bov, custom dual friction disc and spec 3 pressure plate, 4" exhaust fabbed by me, stainless tubular manifold, 50mm w/g and supporting mods.
very nice work by the way.. ill PM you tonight

Sounds nice..links to pics? I hear ebay turbos are good if you replace internals with something of better quality. Stock internals? Thats a tough clutch. LMK about the FFIM. I could finish yours for you for cheap depending on how far you are on yours.

 

[SupraDupra500]

Still plan on PMing you.. ill probably do it tomorrow (sunday) when i can think more clearly.. kinda tired now.. heres some pics of my setup

and yea the ebay turbo i have on there was great.. and no the turbo was not on stock internals.. i rebuilt it myself. i can rebuild turbos very fast.. i rebuilt 2 ct26's one stock and one 60-1.. about 20 min to rebuild one.

keep in mind the setup i have in this pic is the old setup.. not very clean either.. had to finish it real quick because i had a bad wreck in my DD..

This pic is a test fit for the downpipe.. i hadn't ground the welds and wrapped it yet. 4" right off the back of the turbo!

 

[DavidBaustert]

Very nice. That's a big turbo. What's your final power goal for the setup?

 

[SupraDupra500]

well keep in mind that is the old setup.. that turbo is now sitting under the hood of a z28 camaro.. i ran 30psi on that turbo and made un-real power.. i didnt really ever have a goal.. and i dont really like to make goals.. last couple times i made goals i got dis-appointed! i had my big laggy top end monster, now im going for the z06 smoking street monster set up. we'll see what happens

 

[DavidBaustert]

Nice...I'm guessing you're on forged internals?

 

[SupraDupra500]

at least forged pistons.. stock rods can hold quite a bit of power.. depending on cost effectiveness i might go forged, but i might have the stockers x-rayed, shot peened, and cryo-treated. they should hold just about anything i throw at them then

 

[DavidBaustert]

cool cool....you still planning on that PM?
