PR850TURBO Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 Hi everyone and Happy New Year! Uuff it's being a while since my last post!! Being busy with family/work/etc. and working on fitting the ATP manifold and GT3076R in my 850!! ;>) Everything is almost completed except for a small leak in the coolant and oil lines to the turbo, plus connecting the catback (3" dual muffler). I turned the car on after ~4 or 5 months! crank and Idled Ok but of course very very rich because I need to re-tune for the 3" intake and new turbo. I had Upsolute and plan to re-tune with the same chip. Did you guys have any recommendation? BTW I'm upgrading the intercooler next. Hope you can see the pic's in the link (for some reason my features are not available: smiles, links, pic's, etc.) Appreciate your input! Thanks! http://photos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs136.snc3/18359_248924078128_561083128_3372299_297596_n.jpg http://photos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs136.snc3/18359_248924073128_561083128_3372298_459420_n.jpg http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs156.snc3/18359_248924063128_561083128 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdlimy Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 looks like a real clean setup, any pictures of the back side of the motor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spanky Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 Got pics of the manifold on the car? So it was written in stone from the VS God's "Though shall not be fitted a ATP manifold to a 850". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PR850TURBO Posted January 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 I concur. Here some pic's when I started the project: http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs156.snc3/18359_248989313128_561083128_3373195_1823153_n.jpg http://photos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs156.snc3/18359_248989308128_561083128_3373194_723970_n.jpg I'm going to take some additional pic's from under the car so you can see the custom DP and the turbo connected. What do you think about tunning with Upsolute? So far I have good experiences/results from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackT5 Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 Looks good! I've had terrible experience with Upsolute, very poor communication. Maybe you got lucky and found a good rep. For such a custom setup, have you looked into something like turbo tuner where you can make live changes to the ignition/fuel on the dyno? Would be much easier than sending your chip back and forth hoping that they get it right. Is your motor stock? Are you still running the auto trans? Probably not going to like the increased power output too much. What is your target power goal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was considering adding a SAFC and take it to a turbo tuner, but since I want to start with Upsolute. Stock motor and auto trans with some enhancements (4 now ;>)) I want to see how much I can push it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PR850TURBO Posted January 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Hi! I have the Tial External WG and want to make sure I installed correctly. I connected a line from the plenum MBC and to the lower fitting the WG. I left the upper fitting open because it's for vent to atmosphere? Or should the upper fitting be connected to the MBC? IF this is correct. THanks, Vic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
