60 Trim Is On...


Zulu

Recommended Posts

Garrett T3/TO4E 60 trim, .63 backhousing. w/ a Tial 38mm WG (.9 BAR spring)

Originally was putting it on a stock manifold:

However, the compressor housing was far too big and even with shaving the motor mount it would not fit. Was forced to make a log manifold (I have additional pictures of it off that I will post later, need to get them off another camera).

Oil feed was expensive to set up nicely to say the least, fab'd an aluminum intake (I know heatsoak blah blah, I tout the same principle of not using aluminum), cut and clocked a piece on my hot pipe (all custom intercooler piping).

Everything is fine except there is a major exhaust leak, originally from 3 cylinders, now seems to be only one...manifold needs to be slotted (in a hurry, neglected to do that) and it will be fine. Basically with this manifold depending on the clocking of the turbo flange you'll be able to fit any size turbo. We will most likely, provided there is enough interest, produce these manifolds to sell.

Car is running like stuff however due to the major leak which is probably causing false knock like crazy...so can't give you any real input on performance. But when it hits 10lbs eventually, it shows its potential.

98 S70 T5M

FMIC, 3'' back, stock ECU w/ SAFCII controlling Siemens 630ccs, numerous other things. Stock block.

AWESOME!!!!!! and what are you doing with that stock manifold?

Selling it with the ATP adaptor and couple other left over things from that option. PM me if interested.

Looks great man!

Where in the hell is that TB pipe coming from? :blink:

Intercooler, circle saw'd out a hole where battery used to be. Tried to avoid bends and pipe length.

Nice set up, have you thought about taking it out to the track on Wednesday's for test and tune ? Lots of idiots, but $20 for unlimited runs isn't a bad way to check things out once the leak is fixed.

Bring it by sometimes, I'd love to see it in person.

Yeah man, I'll call you up tomorrow, we'll have lunch or something. It's not running well enough by any means to go to the track though, probably run a 17. But yeah, I love Gville track <3

chuck would lose cuz his fat ass would slow the car down too much.

eric would probably come in second to last because his car is falling apart so much that it's not aerodynamic anymore.

jared, would be right in the middle of the pack, if not second.

jeremy would be in the middle too, if not second....only thing that may give jeremy 2nd is the LSD.

joseph would be first because he's an offensive driver and a terrorist.

and ben, well, i don't know....he might have issues with manifold failure because of the nawzzz

congrats man, you've got some serious potential

:D thanks.

Throwing dirty bombs over his shoulder...making us all swerve..

:lol::lol::lol: Pras, that was classic! But, one thing... are you able to say terrorist without having the Dept. of Homeland Security knocking at your door? :P

Jared, looking good man! Get it running and down here by 3/1 before I leave, I'm curious. :ph34r:
