Didn't get that done yet maybe if I get some rear calipers I can get it done on Wednesday. Replaced the rear sub frame this weekend but both of my rear calipers are shot. So the ares is still up in the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serpentkilla Posted December 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 HELLLOOOOOO Single, Ok for starters yes the car was running great with the stock twins but there is always room for imporovemnent right...... right. So it took me and matt all day to do this s***, I could of had another motor in and running with the time it took to do this crap. Intial thought was "anh its ok"(14lbs) to holy s*** i almost wrecked (22lbs) Last night on the way home the charge pipes kept blowing of so i couldn't really get a feel for it. I fixed everything when i got home and couldn't wait to drive to work today. I got on the exit to get on the highway in 3rd at about 58mph, got on the gas to about 70mph spining the tires and the car almost coming around. Talk about scared, It feels like this thing has V-Tec, it sounds like a fighter plane on the runway about to take of. I am very pleased with the way its running considering im still using the stock ecu and inj. My afr's are still good at 22lbs. I'm afraid to jump on the gas now lmao. http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s285/pgoombay/2010-12-29_18-32-09_432.jpghttp://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s285/pgoombay/2010-12-29_18-34-10_302.jpghttp://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s285/pgoombay/2010-12-29_18-34-02_359.jpghttp://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s285/pgoombay/2010-12-29_18-33-32_469.jpghttp://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s285/pgoombay/2010-12-29_18-33-09_81.jpg Yes this is a 4" downpipe http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s285/pgoombay/2010-12-29_18-31-37_953.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all depends, prices go up and down on these motors. 2jzgte with Manual trans are 3000 sometimes and could 4000 at times. I got everything from ebay.

Laodicea Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Cheap arse ebay turbo I have a Garrett T04Z part # GTSB8011F Turbo to put on when it blows up Nice...LOL yeah I had to turn my boost down because I almost lost it at 65 on the highway. I turned it down to 18 psi which gives me 470 to the wheels and it won't spin in 3rd. OK...but which ebay Turbo specifically? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pretty sure this aint no 320hp anymore and yeah that s*** aint no fun spinning like that at those speeds. I'm gonna do the same, prob put it around 19.

spoolinturbo Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 (edited) i know if you nailed a consistent low 60ft time with some good tires...you could definitely land in low 12s high 11s man. your car sounds quiet on the vids for some reason? or maybe its my laptop. nicely done though! i definitely approve!
