The IC isn't really that critical with a small turbo running very low boost. I'm sure he can dig up something without much trouble though. I'd recommend the stock SRT-4 IC if you can make it fit. It's a pretty compact fmic, it doesn't have plastic end tanks, and it can be obtained at pretty cheap prices (Under $100 on srtforums I would think).

when does turbo fab start?

6/29/2006 12:44:02 PM

The install date is Sunday July 9th.

Jeepman- are you free that day, or can I borrow your welder?

6/29/2006 6:10:02 PM

I'll prollly be here. baryn's kinda particular ab me taking it/ other ppl using it. i can work w/ ya tho. when are you trying to get stuff welded? and do you want to work on my radio w/ me tomorrow?

6/29/2006 6:28:59 PM

its already fabbed and you're installing it?


good luck

6/29/2006 9:41:09 PM

I'm in the process of fabbing now, so it will be ready to be installed in a week and a half.

6/29/2006 10:22:11 PM

Crap.
I may have to delay the install date by three weeks. Don't know if my last parts are going to be here, and then I am leaving for two weeks to LA, California.

7/2/2006 7:07:58 PM

shit that would suck i want to see this shit done

7/2/2006 7:30:39 PM

I want it done too, but not everything always follows schedule.
My seat broke yesterday, so I need to get a new one so I can actually drive the car. Right now, there is no back to the seat.

7/2/2006 8:20:06 PM

If you're in Charlotte, my dad would be glad to sell you a seat. Give me or the house a call if you're interested. The upholstery is tan fabric on our spare interior.

7/3/2006 1:32:05 AM

Fixed the seat. One of the welds broke in the back seat where it bolt into the reclining mechanism. I swapped seat backs, and problem solved.

7/4/2006 5:02:46 PM

So, I got a few things accomplished today.
I did an allignment and oil change to start with. The allignment was a bitch, that required breaking out the torch to heat some of the nuts.
Then I discovered my power steering rack is leaking while under the car. again. As well as one of the high pressure lines.

I installed:
my Warlboro 255 intank fuel pump.
the boost guage.
my Greddy FATT. sort of, I'm having issues with it.
my fuel pressure guage.

I removed:
The condensor
the compressor motor
the AC lines
more of the car interior. (non needed metal, and wires)

7/10/2006 12:16:29 AM

so the turbo is on.? ur letting me down i need more picts seriously. and a video.

7/10/2006 12:20:18 AM

No, the turbo is not on. I would have said so if it was.
I will have a couple more pictures up later.

7/10/2006 7:52:01 AM

why change oil if you still haven't mounted the turbo? anyway you have to drain coolant and oil to install it...

[Edited on July 10, 2006 at 1:35 PM. Reason : hjhj]

7/10/2006 1:34:44 PM

My new exhaust- 3". Both turbos go into the y-pipe, then resonator, then side pipe out from under the back passenger door.

7/13/2006 9:34:03 PM

My new oil cooler

My mandrel piping

My oil filter sandwich plate



Should be running (roughly) by this weekend

8/8/2006 10:48:50 PM

z32 manifolds, maybe?

8/8/2006 11:25:35 PM

i still can't believe all this is going through, good luck man!

8/8/2006 11:40:26 PM

I think those are mustang rims.

8/9/2006 2:06:06 PM

i cant wait

8/9/2006 2:10:49 PM

Well, my last flanges are supposed to be done today or tomorrow.

I have my braided stainless oil line, cooler, and return pump.


I have an intercooler. 11''x 11.8'' x 3




I'm hoping within two weeks it will be done. It is very hard to do this on top of 19 hours of class.

9/7/2006 8:21:19 PM

man one of these weekends im gonna slap a random ass turbo on my bike over the course of one day just to see Darryl crying

i would requite a 24 pack, some help from jeepman and a butterknife to measure clearances.

also i make tripleD4u my shop bitch for a day.

then i will have one useless monster of a bike

9/7/2006 9:46:57 PM

^let's do it

and GOOD LUCK DARYL!!! if i can help at all let me know

9/7/2006 10:48:14 PM

The mock up of my exhaust.
Yeah, that is diamond plate, and a chrome tip.

9/8/2006 8:50:54 PM

Nice. Goes well with the wheels

9/9/2006 2:01:31 AM

vehicular bastardry.

9/9/2006 2:06:22 AM

i like it

9/9/2006 8:42:07 AM

aaaaahahhahahahahahaahhaahhaah

9/9/2006 8:51:51 AM

im way too lazy to read the rest of the thread. when is this shit gonna be done by?

19 hours. whew i love rockin my 12

9/9/2006 9:51:27 AM

Daryl, looks good. Did you put silicone caulk under the diamond plate?

And does it go yet?

"vehicular bastardry."

yeah it is, and pretty damn hilarious. i saw this thing a couple weeks ago, i have to say the turbos in the passenger compartment is the best part. even if it doesn't run worth a shit, i think it'll still be pretty damn cool.

9/9/2006 8:13:51 PM

I guess it is time to unveil my creation.
No, it is not running yet.
-I need to install the SAFC
-I need to put in the wideband
-I need to prime the oil lines
-I need to fix the one intercooler pipe
-I am waiting for my injectors, but will still run it before then.
-Get some bolts for here and there.
Really, that isn't much left.

I will have a total price list made later on so I can see how I did with my budget.

So, on with the pictures.
The exhaust exits through the door via a 3'' pipe with chrome tip and diamond plate surround.


Under the hood scoop is this intercooler. I will eventaully get around to adding the alcohol spray.



The turbos. Twin K03s, running in parallel pushing 8psi.


[]Puts on flame suit[/]
Any questions?

9/20/2006 10:13:48 PM

I'm glad they're in parallel series wouldn't work to well with those tiny bastards and that low of psi.

so the turbos are in the passenger cabin?

[Edited on September 20, 2006 at 10:18 PM. Reason : .]

9/20/2006 10:18:12 PM

yeah, underneath and in the engine bay there was no room. I thought about putting them in the trun, similar to a STS setup, but that would have been even more work, and even less efficient with the turbos I have.

9/20/2006 10:20:14 PM

Now we need to add full instrumentation via HUD, complete with a full FLIR, night-vision and radar/jamming capabilities.

Do a Gumball Run with it...see how fast you can do coast to coast.

I'm down.

9/20/2006 10:20:23 PM

estimated time/price at the end?

9/20/2006 10:27:21 PM

the trunk thing would have been better i think those turbos are tiny they'll spool on a briggs motor i think they'd spool in your trunk on a what 3.5l?

9/20/2006 10:32:01 PM

zxappeal: I am now saving for an array of Autometer Cobalt guages, sorry no HUD.

OmarBadu: I think I am at about $1300-$1400 when all complete.

sumfoo1: I wanted to keep them close to keep efficiency. Not too worried about spool.

It is a 3.0L VG30 motor

^fuck yeah.

p.s.-- wear hearing protection.

9/20/2006 10:49:05 PM

holy hell wtf.

those suckers are gonna get hot you know... good thing falls coming i guess

9/20/2006 11:01:48 PM

I plan on making a heat shield/ explosion guard that will seperate me and them somewhat. I know they are going to get very hot, but I don't plan on having this be a traveling vahicle. I already have earplugs, I think I will hear them spool plenty. Even over the sound of the exhaust.

9/20/2006 11:09:47 PM

that shit aint fast till you put some type r stickers on there

9/20/2006 11:11:13 PM

oh dear god. not only does your exhaust exit out your rear door. you put the turbos in the cabin. thats all i can say.

9/21/2006 12:23:52 AM

^ummm, yes?

9/21/2006 12:45:10 AM

dude your project is a nigger rigged peice of shit.

Seriously.

Its about as cool as the PC case that has hamsters running around in it.

GL to you, try not to burn yourself.

9/21/2006 1:06:03 AM

That hurt my feelings oh so badly.
So when are you and mark going to get that compilation DVD together from the AutoX 3 years ago? You guys still working on that?

FYI, A lot of that was carefully planned, and it mimics a system that sells very well.
