So about this cruise... What else do u need to do?
 

This cruise is looking iffy for me, here is where i am right now.

gOAL IS in tonight, wait for turbo to get back, tune thursday night and friday night.

Still need to find a NT throttle body, and talk to PTE about the oil feed line, i don't know if maybe the oil pressure was too low at idle in that motor to feed the turbo from the head.

wow brown you got a lot of work ahead of ya. I'd lend you a hand if I were home, but unfortunately I'm stuck in fargo.

All I've gotta do, is change my oil and adjust my clutch and give her a wash.

looks like about 12 hrs of work.

I need to change my oil, check tire pressure, check coolant level, add windshield washer fluid, wash and vaccuum my car, and I'm good to go. Unless I decide to take my bike, in which case I need to top off the gas tank, and check tire pressure.

I need to put gas in the pontiac and charge the video cam battery. I'm only a movie guy on this cruise. Ghey

Mitsu housing turbos from PTE come with instructions showing where to run the oil feed line from on the oil filter housing. Garrett turbos need more oil than OEM Mitsubishi turbos and PTE has said the oil feed off the head isn't enough oil/pressure. Once you put the feed down at the oil filter on a balance shaft less motor, then the oil seals blow. :)

I have a PTE 50 trim and have this very setup that I got from SlowBoy

I don't running any filter or restrictor. However I still have the balance shafts in.

i gotta get some coke and hookers lined up. other than that, maybe just a car wash :D

Re: So about this cruise... What else do u need to do?
 

motor is in and done. Just waiting on his fucking turbo. 12 hours my ass ;)

Re: So about this cruise... What else do u need to do?
 

Got the motor in last night. Need to put the drive line back together. 10 miles and my new transfer case leaks again!

Probably not going to make it...

Re: So about this cruise... What else do u need to do?
 

I just found out my oil cap got switched somehow, need a new one before the cruise because this one leaks badly. Got my '90 thermostat housing installed tonight that doesn't leak, so no more filling coolant every 200 miles.

Now I just need to get link and my downpipe installed Thursday afternoon and I'll be all set for tuning at DB on Friday.

Re: So about this cruise... What else do u need to do?
 

12hrs?!! what a joke.

SO apparantly (thank you shane) I need to acquire an oil feed line from the filter housing with a restrictor. (any ideas)

Waiting on turbo, got a 90 degree coupler for IC piping and might have a real intake too.

See pic (note installation tool)

My evo needs to be started and driven to the meeting point, that is probably going to take me the rest of the week to get to! I cannot wait!

Re: So about this cruise... What else do u need to do?
 

^loser, go break something then fix it, all this being ready way ahead of time is boring.
Or go do some opposite of rain dances for this weekend.

Re: So about this cruise... What else do u need to do?
 

My brother decided last week that he's moving to florida next week, so I have plenty of other stuff to do besides work on my damn car!

Now get yours running so I can beat your ass with an OEM turbo and convince you to switch back to one!

Re: So about this cruise... What else do u need to do?
 

Me: I want to put some Rain-X on the windshield

Janelle: Install her new pink strut bar thats supposed to arrive on Thurs
