So we started tonight working tonight on Matt's and my car for TX2K8. Got the turbos taken off mine and Matts got some of his stuff mocked up. We are waiting on his intake to get here then just do some wiring and he'll be ready to rock n roll.

Here are some pics from tonight
















Tomorrow we will be buying misc. lines, fittings, etc. to start putting her back together.

Pretty sure I was the one doing most the work, The title should say "MATT POWELL = MY HERO!"
Matt

 

Hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Haha. Did you two ever play baseball on the same team?

Good luck you two. Powell, any plans with those headers?

 

Stock K16's vs GT3071's/K24's


Today has been scary. I just want to be done, to see the results!!!!

 

What kind of fitting/connection are you using to connect the incoming air from the plenum to the that bigger turbo inlet? What kind of HP/TQ numbers will those bad boys generate?

 

Fun fun times : )

 

I'm going to be using a reducer from 3" to 2". I already have them, they are temporary. I am eventually going to be building my own setup sometime soon and use a Ford MAF probably.

I'd like to thank a bunch of people who have been helping me answer questions and getting me the parts I need. First and formost Dan @ Vivid, Stephen @ iA, Tony @ EPL and Scott @ Softronic. Also Markski for all his tips and tricks hes helped me with so far, Suman for his ideas hes had to help me out, and many others for the little tid bits of information that I have picked up on and the support that I've been given.

Hopefully I will be ready for TX2K8, but this weekend hasn't gone as planned really, considering I have no lift... This week though I still have a lot to do, but a major mid-term and a lot of work that I can't take off from. So when I get back from Tahoe we will hopefully button up the rest of things, unless some miracles happen in the next day or two.

 

Can please you take picts of the coolant lines for the turbo when they are installed? I have a 650 kit from Vivid ready to be installed. :-)

 

what turbo's are those and where did you get them?

Do they bolt on to the oem tt headers?

TIA

Holy Crap Powell, I think you have lost it...

Congrats,

should really fly!

This picture does it for me. Chris, I officially hate you. If you only knew how close I was to getting those turbos...

Just kidding bro, looks AWESOME! Button that thing up and rip some times dude. Suck it up and pull some all-nighters. Go to TX Mile and REPRESENT man!

I'm so jealous I can't even tell ya. Congrats dude!

 

I agree with Jimmer. Congrats bro. Keep kickin' ***.
