Galantman03's 8G Build

[Galantman03]

6 MAJOR things left to purchase that is all.... :) I'm going to hide in my cave now lol

[M-Rod]

Yes! I'm pumped. This summer/fall is going to be awesome.

[Galantman03]

YOU KNOW IT! I hope I don't break anything lol. Tcase will be sent off in late april/early may, and around that time frame I should be picking up something new to us galants. Right now I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to do the break in....

[Isaurio]

^ +x2 on that. same here. LOL. Low boost and take it nice and slow. I'm going with amsoil break in oil. 20 miles, change oil and filter, then fresh break in oil for another 1K or so. Also try to run on the lean side since you dont want to wash the piston ring with too much fuel.

[M-Rod]

I'm looking forward to see what this new thing may be.

Also, I'm just curious, but would it be possible to run a temporary MAF setup while on low boost just to break in the engine and work out the speed density from there?

Yes. Possible.

A good 500 mile break in then switch to synthetic and go ham. I want to see this car this year! Too bad it won't be ready for the MN dyno day!

The best way to break in engine is not by taking it easy. The rings will not seal properly due to not enough heat expansion.

Do a few WOT pulls in 2nd, 3rd and 4th gear after it idles up to operational temp. Try to stay in boost more than being in vacuum.

Slowing down in gear doesnt create heat moreover it cools the engine down. It needs heat to achieve maximum expansion of different components.

[Silvertune]

Engine needs to be heat cycled a few times before it sees the road. Then 75 miles of up and down, easy throttle and no constant RPMs. Then run a tank or two of gas through it hard. Don't redline it for the first couple hundred miles but still get on it really good to get the rings seated and the bearings tempered up. If you run it hard you'll be set to put synthetic in it at 500 miles no problem. Change frequently and have a good PCV setup and your engine will literally never see carbon outside the exhaust tracks.

Least that's how my engines have been broken in.

[Isaurio]

When i say take it easy. I mean boost wise. U cant start with 15-20lb of boost at breaking.

Thats my main concern

its pretty cool. lol. it would be possible BUT since I went SD, and wire tucked my bay, I just got rid of all the extra wires I didn't need, including the rest of the maf :(

Thats the plan. Whens the dyno day?

Acutally MAP says to have about 50/50 boost and vacuum. its not a stock rebuild, its forged internals so its going to be alot looser.

I'm going to follow map instructions, they are pretty straight forward. I don't have a pvc set up :) catch can VTA FTW!

why not? its built for 40+psi :)

If you want to return the fuel pump assembly, I'm selling mine brand new for 300

I would but its to much of a hassle with me being on the other side of the world right now. Thanks for the offer though.
Long Time over due, but it was worth the wait, especially since it was first drawn up in a cad program to this. Big thanks to Marc!

[wetamup2k3g]

I remember that drawing, that's dope to see it come to fruition.

T-case- Beast mode
Driveshaft 55 3/16" long
injectors 2150cc
turbo-PTE anybody figure it out which one yet?
TUBULER front subframe
Intercooler piping
SS exhaust piping
If anybody is looking for some crazy deals on ss and intercooler piping go to frozenboost.com
Ok curious as i cannot find any info on this, but do you have to seal the injector seals with rtv?
Also, do I need an oil restrictor for a BB turbo? whats better head, or oil pressure housing for the feed line? I have seen both reviews, and I'm up in the air i guess.
And I'm getting excited to get back home lol... even though its like 2 months away

[gallant]

Long time i get on here
What are the chances
We used to be on this forum every day :/

No rtv on the injectors. New seals should do the job

Oil restrictor if you using a ball bearing turbo and using -4 AN

Feed for turbo use the evo oil housing get better pressure from there.

Im glad you keeping up the project.

[Galantman03]

I'm not giving up man, i just can't physically work on the car right now lol.
Doing lots of r&d though
