The main thing that is wrong is that it spools boost and it is owned by you.
That concept in itself, a year ago would be somthing you would laugh at.

Good on you but, thats a huge effort and it seems to be going ok.
Congrats to you and all that helped, job well done.

Is it the PVC pipe elbow thing on your air filter

I reckon there's a page long list of stuff wrong with that

PS - there is a front mount.

Yep, that is a PVC stormwater pipe elbow! (I'll paint it black I think )

I'll start it off then:

S14 Blacktop in an S13?

It ran 12psi tonight.. didn't seem to have any pinging, but I was just hanging on!
It's now running about 9psi, and needing tuning - but it should make 150+ at the wheels.

The conversion was done last weekend, with much help from Mayhem and Too_Much_Boost - who did the cooler piping.
I spent the rest of the week's evenings doing the wiring / piping up, making the dump pipe, etc.

very interesting indeed =P

how much all up did the parts for the conversion set you back?




also.. thats a nice coolant bottle you have *evil glare* =P

all parts came from either my old car (such as the coolant bottle ), were custom made, or were bought cheap / free over time.

Most expensive bits were the engine ($800 delivered with ECU and loom), clutch ($450), manifold ($350), turbo ($200)

The car will owe about 8k when it's complete...

I got a ride in it today on the way home from dropping my car off for a service... so can't wait till its tuned and running nicely to see what DumHed can do in the new mega death machine !

What you had? Reach for the lasers. Safe as f**k!

but how were we meant to see the gearbox, turbo type, short shifter, dump pipe and quite a few of the other things you mentioned by looking at the picture?
