and as for the turbo swap, I was planning to do it. but I decided to stay sc. euthanasia is building me a tvs 1900 kit. so we will see how that works out.

 

oh ouch!
there is guy on here that showed me this great replacement upgrade that is plug and play from jegs or summit racing for 100 bucks. There are of course lots of good replacements.

 

time frame settled. may not make CED. but here in 2.5 months this car is gonna **** some **** up.

 

yeah I just went with a stock pump. I do have the zzp rewire kit tho. .. its good to go for now. once euthanasia gets my kit finished I will be replacing the head for a ported head the sc upgrade and my balance shafts. I know im not cool like you turbo guys but I should be one of the quickest sc guys around. lol

 

our stock pump is good for 500whp on e85. i think...

 

Not 2005's

 

mines an 06

 

Stock pump should be ok with E then

 

anyone have any idea about going lsj tc swap and keeping your stock intake manifold, buying the adapter plate from zzp? idk where i can get vacuum from for the bov. someone said there is one port on the stock manifold once you remove the sc?

 

yeah its on the top left side of it. you should have a line on it now

 

im not looking now, but it must go into the blower right? that would be perfect then, im pretty sure i only need 1 vac source, for bov. thanks

 

on gas maybe not e



ZZPerformance - LSJ Turbo Adapter Plate #ZZ-TRBAP-LSJ

 

yep im gunna grab that. but ive decided not to keep my stock ic system. but save a little money on intake mani

 

AEM fuel pump 50-1000 is a direct swap pump. 320lph at 43 psi 13.5 volts. Gonna go this route if my pump fails.

 

So what can be done about the belt issues when going turbo?

 

I am running the following.

LNF Belt
LNF alternator
LNF alternator bolts (shorter than lsj)
L61 idler pulley/bolt

 

Damn more cost! Good to know tho thanks. Looking for lsj turbo swap parts too if anyone has parts for sale

 

I have an almost complete zzp oil/feed return kit, zzp bov and my old lsj oil pan(zzp oil feed return kit comes with oil pan fittinng to be welded on). The feed/return kit is partial because the return hose I cut an inch or so off so it might be too short now. And the bov wasn't opening properly causing turbo flutter( I don't know how they even let that sell with their kit....needs a weaker spring!) I went with a tial q didn't feel like ordering a different spring and wanted a quick easy solution after dealing with installation headaches. The oil pan will come in handy because you can have an oil pan ready the day you are doing the install and not have to worry about running out and getting your pan welded in the middle of your tear down. Pm me if you're interested

 

What do people think about the zzp cheaper bovs?

 

never had a problem with mine.

 

What are you running for boost

 

I was getting compressor surge under certain situations with mine. Fourth and fifth gear accelerate on the highway let off and get the cha cha cha chaaa sound. Spring is too stiff. Im Not putting that kind of strain on the fins on the compressor wheels a daily driver. Put in the tial q and the surge is gone but bov hangs open at idle. I never catch a break.

 

about 18-19ish and 31psi

 

I had similar problem with mine. Did the exact same thing as rival adore and went with the tiAL q and its way better in my opinion. I even tried changing the spring in the ZZP one and it helped but not enough

 

Is there a way to get around the cha cha issue lol I wonder if the same issue would happen at lower boost like 16psi. People say at higher rpm the chatter goes away
