I don't really care if people know. I more or less just want to keep the na-sayers out.

I just wanted to post what it was after I see dyno results as I to am a little skeptical of what of what it will make.

FMIC fits nicely now behind my bumper

Mounted the radiator to make sure the ic pipe didn't hit.

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

understandable, well i can tell you right now the jpipe housing will restrict the flow a bit compaired to a down firing housing. but im very interested in what it will make.

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

This is what I ordered and hopefully will get a tracking # today.

Machined 16G j-pipe housing
Billet 11 blade 3076 comp wheel
td06h4 turbine wheel
Upgraded shaft
FP 8cm hotside
Holset wastegate

Crossing fingers it will do well. If the j pipe housing does become a huge restriction then ill just throw on a downfacing comp cover to help it out. Someone said Tachyon runs a downfacing in SA/U so ill just run that class instead.

My main goal for the car is to run a low 11 high 10. I think it's pretty doable to after seeing what the ef1 has done in carltalons full weight 2G last yr.

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Looking good! I'm looking forward to seeing what that turbo can do!

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

I'm super interested to see what the 11 blade 3076 comp wheel does in a correct housing. You should just join me in SA/U... that field could use some more cars :)

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

So you are down firing than. I was gonna ask after goodhart said you were. Ill contact TL and have them machine one for me so I have it on hand if the 16G just won't cut it. Its obviously not a huge deal what class I'm in just thought it he cool to do it with a true SA cover.

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

I'll run SA/U if you need more cars. ;)

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Lol if you're running sa/u can I get in on that too? Hahaha

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

You still have the blue auto?

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

I am... actually our turbo specs are going to be identical, except for compressor wheel. I am going to see how far I can push a cast OEM 20g wheel this year.

What I am really afraid of is MAP changing the SA-SA/U rules on us as we both appear to be down the critical path of our builds.

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Cool! 99gsxjoel is doing a 20G on his 5 speed but I think he's going billet extended tip.


Yeah that's why I'm holding out on tires still. If I'm in SA I'm gonna run nittos. SA/U gonna run QTPs.

Map said on Facebook that the rules should be posted by the weekend.

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Nice looking forward to seeing the rules. You going to be doing any road course at the PG?

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Probably not. Not to sure it would be the same in an auto.

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Awesome progress!

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Installed the 255 walbro hp. ran a -6an line up front.

Finished taking off all the sound crap that is glued to the floor.

This weekend I will be swapping in an LSD rear end.

Ill post pics tonight

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Looking good.

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

That looks awesome with the all black interior!

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Damn dude you are doing some serious work!

How did you remove that sound deadening stuff?

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Looks good! You got a lot done since I was there last night

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Thanks guys.

Yeah I still have to swap seat belts, put the passenger door skin on and center console. Then just the rear plastics in the trunk will need to be done.

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

You use the dry ice method for the sound deadening?

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

No. I used the freeze your ass off for 15 minutes method.

I should do a write up of how to do it. It worked pretty awesome. All the areas came up in 3 or 4 pieces. With clean up I think I had a little less than 1/2 hr into the whole thing

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

do it! I need to do mine too, as it is a free mod.

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

* must be done in winter to let car body become cold.

1. Don't turn your heat on it the garage (gets the metal cold/sound detening brittle)
2. 1/2 hr before you start turn the garage heater on (not required but at least you'll be warmer)
3. Take a 12" pry bar and go to town.
4. Put all material in a bucket and shop vac your mess

I did this in less than 1/2 hr. It did not leave a residue and clean up was a breeze since it came out in sections and not chips.

Maybe I just got lucky. So your results may vary

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Damn, good idea. Maybe next year.

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Looks good man!!

Re: 2G auto S/A daily

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

That works too! Just let me know what's up

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Turbo showed up today. All I have to say is it is huge!

The turbo inlet got damaged durning shipping though so I'm sending that back to get a new piece pressed in. Unless a member thinks they can fix it.

Any ways here's some SA turbo porn!

Re: 2G auto S/A daily
 

Hope that turbo really performs. Seeing all this makes me want another DSM. Keep up the good work.
