im guessing the name "edelbrock"

 

[Smonkeyboy]

the Skunk2 one is like 350 too and makes huge power with boost

sidenote: how much was that edelbrock (whatever it is?)?

it came on his engine... i think. but they retail for 'bout $350.

 

[NoJokE]

The JG Edelbrock is better for Turbo supposedly and some other stuff

 

[swanny]

you should've drilled out that bolt that snapped rather than nig rigging it with the jb weld

hopefully that wasn't a racial slur.

quiet. whiteboy.

edelbrock IM > skunk2 IM... for boost anyways. the skunk2 IM is pretty much just a replica of the ITR IM, the edelbrock IM flows quite a bit better. i saw graphs somewhere.

DAMN B
THE SOL LOOKS GOOD

you should totally cut a hole in your hood--------the milwalkee super sawzall is the shit

that exhaust maniford is super nice

cant wait to see it finished with HondaSwap stickers all over it

the JG Victor X intake manifold is designed for high volume of air. On all-motor cars, it will loose your power most likely. on a boosted setup- and a highly boosted setup- such as mine, it excels. it provides a good 20-40 whp gain through out the power band over the stock gsr IM. that new CF by Endyn is even more bad ass. it makes the JG look like a toy. I saw a dyno comparing the 2, and the CF one made a good 20+ more throughout the band than the JG did.... but that one is 2k. lol

hole in hood. how about no, scott.

nig-rig... bah, we use it too.. if cracker-riggged made sense or sounded cool, we'd all use that too. god damn pc shit.

as for the bolt, i tried a reverse bit, pretty much anything to get it out... to the point where i just said fuck it. let the poor bastard who buys the car from me next year deal with it if it bothers him. as long as the fan doesn't move, im happy.

lmfao

edit: hey, i owned page 200!!

day 13, part 2

well, didn't do too much more...


started to hook up the throttle cable...
2- problems.
A- it rubs on the 4th runner
B- its too long. fuck

looks like it rubbed for the other guy too- there is a little crevasse on the runner.... but the other cable that came with it (which is now on bills car) was tight. this one is slack. i dunno.. they are the same damn part number.

i got the other coupling from full-race, so i decided to put the charge pipe back together. feels pretty solid.

some more random shots...

JB weld dried.,... came out good

vacuum lines are a mess right now... lol

got the overflow tank back on.... had to modify the bracket a little and move it over to the left some...

and that's all for tonight.

yeah

I love the set up, but DDAAAAAAMMNNN, you make a turbo set up look alot more complicated. I wanna drive that POS when it's done. I'll even drive up there from NJ

no, the internet just has this huge conception that you can "just slap on a kit" and drive off.

yeah, if you want to run 6 pounds on a t3.

not if you want to run 15-20 on a t3/t67

Hey B, a cable thats too long is always better than too short. You see that bracket that holds the throttle cable right before it gets to the TB? Inserts something under it like washers or something to lift it off the IM and to give u clearance on the runner, it will work great.

 

[posol]

not a bad idea. i've also noticed it says p73 on it--- type R. im wondering if the GSR or LS brcket is slightyl different....

 

[h82w8]

this car has one of the sexiest engine bays i've seen in a while.

 

[swanny]

or you could hack it, extend it to desired length and weld it.

 

[liquid00meth]

yah so as soo as it's done there is going to be another meet up here right

 

[BigJ]

Looks like its coming along real nicely.
