paparishi90's turbo build... again

[paparishi90]

Ok so I'm back on the turbo track after a year and a summer at ku, though school starts again in one week... great. So i'm trying to make progress as quick as possible. As of 8/12/2009 I have made a mock downpipe and figured out all the intercooler piping. So here are the pics of some of that. Today I hope to install all of my gauges, modify my oil pan, and install new spark plugs. I also installed a walbro 255 pump about a year ago. Enjoy!

I know it looks a bit rough right now but most of what was done today was a mock up... I also got a gm mas airflow for 25 bucks off of this kid's LT-1 camaro, I'm ordering a maf-t tomorrow along with a plethora of other parts, i.e. evo ecu, boomslang harness, tactrix cable, etc.

Well I just got my MAF-T today... and a gm MAF which i picked up for 25 bucks off some kid who obviously didn't know its value too well... oh well

Nice find on the maf...What is your goal and what number do you want to put up??

[Ruslik]

good luck looks nice so far

[paparishi90]

Thanks guys... I'm hoping to put up about 250 whp running on e85. Its probably too high of a goal when i plan to run 10 lbs of boost but i'm also getting it dyno tuned so it should help.

So... I finished all of my intercooler piping and took off my oil pan and cleaned it... Turbo is on and all i have to do is Is to finalize the welds on the down pipe. I received my evo ecu yesterday along with an oil catch can. Did i mention i finished my gauges and pod! boomslang is sending me a harness on friday and i will also get my t1 racing development 1000cc injectors (i'm running e85 so aprox 30% more fuel). I would have posted more pics but i forgot my camera in the shop, so I will update tomorrow or this weekend ish.

GM MAFs can be picked up at junk yards all day long for under $25 bux. Brand new they are less than $100!

Really, well not here in topeka, everywhere i went it was 50+ and the auto store was over 100. We kansas's really lover our Domestic parts i reckon :)
