Thread: finally ! upgrading my turbo !!

^^^
ahh It all makes sense now.
You and I have a simalar passion for our cars..
My car like yours is rarley driven except for weekends.
Like always I look forward to the end result. Best of luck!

whos doing the install?

i was planning on doing it my self as ive always done my own stuff.

but i had to have my battery box mounting bolts rewelded as over the years they broke off and one even rusted from the bottom. i have a welder but its too strong of a welder and would burn right threw the hatch.

so with that being said, i took it to jun at jmr. he was/is also gonna wire tuck the engine bay, something i know nothing about to begin with. so while it was there im going to have him slap the turbo on.

cant wait to get the car back, wash and wax her and get an professional photoshoot for once. jun is also going to try and get the car featured in some online mags. my goal is to get it in a magazine publication. i think im rims and seats away from that goal.

I had a chance to see this car last week. The cage and hatch are pimp. I can't wait to see what numbers you'll make with the bigger turbo.

stratton you have inspired me, i just got a t2 flanged gt3076r for myslef....cant wait till i get it on!

thats what im talking about ! glad i could help.

seeing everybody like rob, cliff, cory, coheed and cotrim constantly working/building on and improving there cars really made me decide to upgrade and clean a few things up. plus i hate getting beat if you know what i mean.

i have a goal in mind for my car and i want to accomplish it. hopefully im on my way !

He didnt even get the turbo yet lol. Much less put it on! How did he inspire you?

at the end of the summer, Im ditching the 5bolt outlet (.64ar) on my 2860rs and getting a vbanded .82ar.
Ill post the results when i get them.
Im expecting ~25whp

Lol funny guy!

I hope you are not going to try and run this on a stock manifold.
