nice man!!!!!
about damn time! good luck man. i hope you dont run into anymore problems.
Ohhhh snap mitch wtih the 7g is back :) noice wrk man can't wait to hear the results.
I have been holding my poop in for this very occasion
Mitch is being a lazy bitch.. LOL.... He must be working hard. I texted him friday and havent gotten a response from him. I wonder if he doesnt love me anymore :-(. LOL HURRY THE FUCK UP MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ive been working on it just got a few things to work out hold on
Well everybody as most people may know my car officially RUNS not well though im having some timing issues with the 1g cas, and my oil feed line got messed up so i ordered a better one. Actually my turbo spooled up with only 2 cylinders running LOL. Got to work the rest of the bugs out before i post up vids i dont want to show you guys it running like crap. This whole week i will be working on getting everything fixed and getting the meth injection finished up. Stay posted ill post up some vids and pics this week.
Had a bad 1g cam angle sensor and the park neutral safty switch was not right got that fixed got her cranking and poping and finally it started and ran for about 15 seconds had so shut if off for a big oil leak out of my oil feed.
Im really happy and this is going to be the best week of my life for sure it's crazy to hear something that you built with your own two hands run even though it was on 2 cylinders it still made me smile from ear to ear, Voodoo was there smiling with me cause its been such a long journey with this thing.
It's true! I saw it with my own two eyes! We just gotta figure out why it's only firing 2 cylinders and fix the oil leak, then it will be ready to tear up the streets. God did it sound sweet!
Dont u have to switch the firing order when u use a 1g cas with a 2g ecu?
Yea I think so
well that would be the reason you heard some popping. Trust me. I know the sound all to well. Read my turbo thread. LOL
That is great, can't wait for the updates!
Good work Mitch, it was good to see you got this running finally.
Thanks everyone. I'm just waiting on that oil feed line to get here so i can start it up again. Im pretty sure that cylinder 1 is 4 now and vise versa so i will have it up again this weekend and a good quality video to follow.
Sweet! We need a Dells meet again sometime soon.
Yes and i will be at mod for sure.
you fuckers need to come to SC!
how about you come to mod this year
Id have to come galantless. I fear my car wont make far trips like that.
Mich did you order a SS braided line?
yea i ordered a new ss braded stainless steal line thats what i had before but it was a pile of shit and broke off where the adapter is for the turbo :/
this is how it sits right now

nah i just found out that is for a 1g this time so its not so long just comes off the head and down to the turbo and connects with a 90 degree fitting.
is your turbo water cooled?
nope i like non water cooled turbo's less things to leak
my tuner! LOL

does it run well yet?
You need to hit it up with some rustoleum satin black bro. The wheel paint they offer has a real nice satin finish.
I too run a dry bearing turbo. I chose to feed off the oil filter housing instead of the head.
Cleaner, cooler oil, more oil pressure, and a much higher volume of available oil.
The galley on the exhaust side of the head(that the stock turbo is fed from) is literally the very last in line for oiling. This means the oil within it is the dirtiest, and hottest oil in the engine. Also important, is that the oil pressure is much lower up there.
This isn't a problem for the factory turbo's because they have built in oil restrictors. Water cooled turbo's need a low volume and lower pressure of oil.
They literally only use the oil for lubrication.
Your dry bearing turbo uses oil for lubrication and cooling. I'm not saying it will kill your snail by running it THAT way,
I'm just saying I've run mine THIS way for 4 years at all kinds of boost levels. Daily driven. I have no more shaft play than the turbo had brand new(which is only there for oil clearances)
Anyways, can't wait to see some videos.
yea i head ya and i wanted to run it off the oil filter housing but i can not get the damn bolts out of there we are pretty much doing this just to get it running and driving i got stuff to clean up on it so i think when i get it running right ill switch it over with a oil filter housing adapter.
Im having the same problem with it only running on 2-3 i think that the ignitor may be bad just from what i have been reading on the internet its flooding here right now and i can't get a new one till tomrrow so we will see. i could post up a vid of it running on 2 cyls lol if you guys want to see it running.
Did you get the new oil line on? Is it leaking anywhere?
yea its on the banjo bolt that i had to use was a little small so i have to get a adapter for it tomorrow but true value did not have them but tims bumper to bumper has some that will work that im going to grab one tomorrow and get a new power transistor too
Thanks to mr.john i got her running on all 4 :)
ok now where the vids at?? lol
Diesel swap FTW! Hah. Does this mean you're going to make it to the cookout in August?
