THE 2002 Turbo build thread

[briansjacobs]

I ended up ordering one anyways just to prevent oil sloshing under turning and braking. I figured also turbo cars could cause oil to froth, so I thought keepin the oil in the pan would help a bunch as well.

at 13Q capacity of Redline, frothing is one issue I do not have. even in the summer I should preheat the oil before I start the car

[fiftytakedowns]

that's pretty badass an accusump or something?

[fiftytakedowns]

got a couple more things done, some pictures for ya'll

First up I have to fit in the sandwich adapter for the oil cooler. not sure how it works.......







Also, the baffle is about ot get welded in and the scraper in place.

SHINY stage 2 clutch!

External Wastegate On ;) Thanks A bunch AARON!



going to USe the TII Pump return. Its not bracketed down yet, so it appears to have some "upflow" but it will be all leveled out once it's tightened down.

I gotta couple questions about what this thing is and what are the wires that are supposed to be attached to it, but are cut...

And that black wire on the left, what does that go to?

[TrentW]

I believe that's your Dynamic Stability Control module. ;)

UPDAte for today

put in the new headlights while the lifts were in use:

CIBIES





The wiring is a hell hole, I will have to re-do all of it... if anyone is good at being neat. hit me up ;)

Because usually stock isnt enough
I got a stage 2 clutch to match my 228mm flywheel



Time to start slapping in that transmission.... Cake walk right??





I made the mount for the transmission, but I think I will have to adjust its height Thing I put it up too high ,Things get shifted even when you measure twice :(






and here it sits nice and hoodless

[fiftytakedowns]

yup

[deutschman]

where did you get your drive shaft shortened?

[LJ851]

Why do you think it is too high? Its usually a challenge to get it high enough to be square with the flex disc.

new turbocharger

Hy35

perfect candidate for setting up roughly 300 HP.

[fiftytakedowns]

So today,

got a lot done today

Attached throttle Cable,
Wired UP EDIS, and Tach
filled it with fluids.

adjusted valves ( which was difficult, It was hard to get them snug, so I may need larger eccentrics or soemthing

Turbo test fit with the Ebay turbo ; waiting on the new BOV which to come in the mail, old one was stolen

Still have to electrical tape wire the rest of the EDIS. and sort through the wires on the Driver Side.

Also gotta install the holset once it comes in the mail, and take it to the exhaust shop.

Im lookin to do 3" with two glasspacks in the center.

Also my homie sean was there to offer a helping hand. It's always nice to have some dudes hangin around, for comic relief and just makin things easier.

other than that, she is ready for action.

[Simon S]

I'd be pretty stoked.

That looks like fun.

[fiftytakedowns]

It's been a long time coming, I pretty much have put my life into this damn thing.
