Great project i wait the results.. Totally how much hp nm do you expect this bport turbo ? And how much cost ? Thanks.

 

they all like the red but they just cant come to grasps that the Ti look so much better (and is less of a cop magnet)

 

Nice I found The pic Thread.... looking like great progress being made....

 

i spy with my little eye a non oem oil pan

 

Man...wish I could be there to help out. Soooo need to get a transfer from Houston to SA!

 

Wow nice!!! Work!!

 

I could never do those stuffs what you guys are doing. Anyway, nice work and keep it coming.

 

Thanks for all the kind words guys. Only one picture for the day. :/ It was a good day though finally got the engine and tranny mated up.

Lots to do tomorrow... and prolly till next weekend. Anyway we will continue the journey tomorrow wish me luck ill need it. Tomorrow tomorrow one of the things on my agenda is the manifold engine brackets and mounts... Yikes.

 

bunch of noobs ...



Nice job guys ! When will u guys drop one of those into my 8 ?

 

To be fair I haven't done a single thing except help out with the seat belt light and answer a few random questions.

I wish i could have done more . It would have been my 5th engine install and 7th removal!

 

dont lie shady ... you told me you did everything while scott and hoss sat back and drank heavily

 

Nah I had plans the whole weekend . My install is going down this weekend hell or highwater.

 

Hopefully Raul will be done so i can give you a hand all weekend.

 

there will be no hell or highwater at my house this weekend...only a sucessful, yet difficult, turbo install

 

great pics Mike
the inside of the headers are coated too?

 

fixed

 

No, I could not get anyone to coat the inside for me. Its suppose to be a very nice heat coating that is able to withstand well beyond what EGTs i should see.

get it right get it tight!!

 

First time you fill it with oil you might get a surprise

With the 2 Setrab coolers and -10 lines..and the same oil pan I have 9+ quarts of oil in the system.

 

you wouldn't want that - anything coming loose and it's bye bye turbo .

 

my down pipe is both in and out but like brettus said, if something somehow flaked (which is really unlikely but can happen) then it would go through the turbo and that would be bad

 

well on the DP it wouldn't be a big deal, it would just get blown out. But on the manifold yeah. Hell my "coating" is just about all gone. I am pretty sure it was just high temp engine paint at best.

 

Nice. keep us updated

 

Scott I found a guy in seguin that does actual high temp coating...

If not him then I guess there is always the pro choice?

Nice, I have been wanting to get my valve cover powdercoated I have seen that guys ads before.

 

No for real though he seems legit...

Have you heard bad things?
