mike, didnt you have probs with air demand on your 18g's? did you enlarge the piping & get it dynoed again?

yes i enlarged the intake pipework to 3" all the way from the filters to the turbos :)

 

but tbh now i know that i was losing pressure from the bottom end it may not have been that but lets face it the larger the pipework the more its gonna flow ;)

 

im more worried about how were gonna fit the 65mm hot side pipework to the intercooler lol

cool, will be great to see how this performs!!! :bow:

what sort of figures are the 20g's capeable of??

should be good for 380-400 bhp each ish lol so should be interesting once fully mapped :D

 

tbh if i get 600 at the wheels i would be more than happy and anymore if a bonus as i dont want it running on the edge all the time.

RESULT

 

just had a call from UPS and the import charges are £211 :D

 

so to say i'm a happy bunny is an understatement

 

Mike

Which TD06 turbos are u using?

Which TD06 turbos are u using?

 

think theres the TD06SH-20G's :D

looking good maybe we will see you back at mascrat when its done

billy :bow: :bow: :bow:

All the best to you with your built. If everything goes fine with NOS you will hit easily 800rwhp on those turbos.

as i said i will be more than happt with a genuine 600 rwhp but anymore and yes nos is possible ;) then i would be soooooooooooooooo happy :hyper:

 

in all honesty i am gunning now for a high 10 sec 1/4 mile with all the progress that a certain GTS skyline has made and i hope to follow his example :bow:

Well i'm a very very happy chappy :dance:

 

I had a big package today :bow:

 

I tell you what though, nothing is EVER easy with a zed!! guy turns up with a 250kg pallet with no pallet truck!! so i had to go out hire a pallet truck for 10 minutes :rofl: but they guy didnt charge me when i took it back ;)

 

Anyway its all here now safe and sound, superbly packaged and i mean superbly!! my turbos are due in tomorrow/wednesday and deve8uk very kindly lent me his pentroof manifolds as mine wont be ready for a few weeks so it means i can get mine all built up and running this month now :dance:

 

Not much to see but took a few pics

the sad thing is we know where all the bolts go :smw: :dance:

Wow.... nice bit of kit m8.

Awesome :D

just a quick update :)

 

most of the engine is put together, had to remove the plenum to sort the twin fuel rail feed and return from the rail front ;)

 

 

 

Pretty much all thats needed now is the downpipes to be made and the manifolds/turbos fitting then its ready to drop in the car :hyper:

 

Oh and fit these :D :D

 

 

God i love them :p

 

Mike

Think that would look better in a red car :) Looking good Mike, cant wait to see it at Mascrat.

 

 

 

Barry

feeeerrrrrrkin awesome!

 

well done bud, lookin good

Bloody hell Mike this is coming together very fast. Looks like a real nice job, some serious attention to detail. This should realy do the bizz. When you get rid of it in the next six months (well you normally do) just give me a bell first.

 

That fuel rail looks awesome.

 

What size are the Greddy brakes and what price?

 

OMG I'm just going to fire one off. :slap: :rofl: :rofl:

The brakes are 355mm and you can get them from nengun for about £1700 delivered but i paid slightly less than that :)

 

I test fitted them today to make sure the wheels fit ok and guess what?? NOPE :confused: so i am going to have to change the wheels ;) so will get some lighter ones :cool:

 

This car will be the death of me :rofl:
