shorter piping and mounting the IC the proper way is the best way. i still think in the spring and summer you are going to heat soak like a DSM with a 50 trim on a stock sidemount :lol:

piping isnt as long as you guys think and i will make it the shortest i can no long ways for me.. and i usually dont drive too far and i dont beat the shit outta my g so it shouldnt heatsoak often at all
ok heres a little update.. suspension has been done and i put on the rear sway bar
i have the 63t head just waiting to be put on, but due to lack of funds i have decided to turbo first headswap later like next spring...
the 14b that i had blew up shortly after a preliminary run on my car, it was on my buddies talon as he already blew his up 2 days before and i have just picked up another one in much better condition than the old one
due to space issue i will be mounting the intercooler more in the traditional manner but still angled a bit.. piping is going to be 2.5 inch aluminum, tbolt clamps etc and im welding on the 1g bov flange as thats my choice of bov
exhaust due to me already getting an exhaust ticket for my car will be a stock 2g downpipe with my cat back, as they are the same diameter and it will not be as loud as the megan racing 3 inch and adds to the sleeper look for now.. prolly will go 3 inch and an evo3 16g later on but for now this will do
im wiring in the safc and resistor pack and im just debating about the ecu swap as i dont want to mess up the pins and such but i might go stock ecu for now just tune it the best i can with the safc and keep the boost set at 8 psi and never higher than 10 as is
i got another auto trans for you when you blow the one you have now up! :)
Post some pics man lol, we need to see where you are at.
well ill get pics later on one of these days.. i just need the new 3 inch downpipe to come in and the intercooler piping and im ready to go turbo.. headswap will be over the winter and 5 spd prolly next summer
and i hope i dont need that other tranny.. this one is still mint and its only been in for almost a year now.. i dont paln on beating her up 2 bad :FIREdevil:
o and i am picking up a set of jdm tails within the next week
so as an update...
intercooler piping is coming in next week
got my downpipe and j pipe 2day
also picked up a b16g that was sitting at my buddies house for free, but will only use the 14b on the stock little 64 for now
ordering wally 255 next week
picking up a 2g oil pan and all the water and oil lines next week
then hooking it all up hopefully by my birthday august 27th
all turbo parts have been here for a while, but working 6 days a week leaves little time to work on the car
i have put the stock suspension back up front preping it for the cold months, and shortly after showing up at the JY to get the shocks and springs i realize its a 5 speed 7G with everything in it and they only want 325 for everything and they are pulling the tranny i pull the reast, clutch slave and master, cables pedal etc so that will be happening next month
turbo will be next summer and hopefully the headswap will be as well
i thinkim gonna pick up zigens 7g for the 5 spd and spare parts
anyway i got my VR4 wing today

if you want to use your 16g I would like to buy the 14b... mine needs a new turbine bad...damn USPS
i have the 16g and will be rebuilding it as a 20g prolly in the future.. so redline.. you are turbo or planning on it?
plans.... just got my deployment notice so the plan for spring is now out the window, I have a 14b already but the postal service must have played soccer with the box it came in, there are 4 turbine blades that are in more then one piece, and the pieces were floating around in the box
dude thats messed up.. im not selling the 14b as there is no shaft play or bent fins and the 16g needs a rebuild but still works oddly enough.. id say save then decide on what you really wanna do..
my parts for the turbo with everything will be around 2k to 3k and its a pretty basic build, i put money into tuning(MAFT PRO 400 bucks just for it)
decide if you just want a turbo or if you wanna build the motor as well and get a bigger turbo or something
you better rebuild that TB and clean the passages inside. The seals on my TB were garbage, but I couldnt take a chance of having some stupid ass leak like this. Youll have to figure out if youre gonna rewire the IAC or use block off plate. And better read up about the vacuum line rerouting, cuz you want to use OBD1 TB in OBD2 car.
yea mko.. im really researching on the dsm forums as they do this swap all the time in a 2g so that is really the least of my worries.. and i did plan on using the block off.. seals seem good and everything i might not venture fully with the TB until i do the head swap
