damn my speed governor

 

I actually ended up buying the intercooler with piping as well. made payment just now, and i must say frank is an awesome guy to talk to. He is even gonna pay for my dynos!

heres a pic

 

who is going to install it, lots of custom stuff still to be done

 

Super street of orlando. they do pretty much all the custom cars around here

 

good luck, that kid that "makes" them sucks at everything and rips people off

 

27,000 miles GOOD LORD!

 

guess you wont be needing that injen intake anymore, how much you want for it? Pm me

 

I'll buy your exhaust manifold too

 

yeah well everything i DONT need will be going for sale, ill let everyone know.

 

there is nothing wrong with a T3 turbo, however the turbo is made by SS Autochrome...which is known to crap out from what I've read on JBO.

I would go with a Garett turbo...something of known good quality.

But anyway, good luck...I'm glad you purchased the intercooler as well. Remember to snap some pics during the install and let us all know how it goes.

 

get a garrett gt28rs thats an awesome turbo

 

well it says Garrett T3

 

its an xsturbo(made by ss autochrome), i know frank well and thats what is included in his kits

 

do they make good turbos

 

+1 on that one.
I wouldn't trust anything from SSAutochrome. They are very unoriginal in design. I've yet to see them make something that they haven't copied from someone else. Aside from that, their copies are not made to be very high quality. I hate that they try to pass off most of their items as original fabrications from their company.

I'd be wary of anything offered by them, but that's my 2 cents.

 

i bought one from ebay for my old cav, i never installed it, sold it to a friend and he sold it to another kid...so i dont really know lol but i know he didnt want to use it for some reason...there has beena lot of talk about them and them blowing seals or soemthing like that

 

That is going to be very nice when it is complete. Please get some videos.

 

I actually dont have any video recording equipment atm but ill try to get some when its done or use someone elses, but ill definately provide pictures and track times.

 

I find it wierd that the axles wouldn't be able to handle 250 hp..... that's weak.... don't all our cars use the same axles?

 

All this turbo talk is cool and all, but what do you plan on doing for your fuel side? You don't plan on running that kit on stock injectors, stock fuel pump, stock fuel management, etc do you?

Not to mention drivetrain components, suspension components, etc. You'll be replacing a lot of clutches if you stick with your stock clutch and I'm not too sure about the axles, but I'm pretty sure a few hard launches with 50 extra hp might start messing up your stock struts.

What diameter exhaust are you running right now? Even with a small turbo like that you'll want at least a 2 1/2" exhaust to let it breathe.

Anyone can just throw a turbo on their car and call it a day. You need to take into account everything that's going to be affected by throwing 50 more hp at your car. I'm not trying to be an ass, just trying to keep you from messing up a brand new car because you want 2 beat all the ricer boys around the way.

 

yea im not sure if the kit comes with fuel management but youll def want some type of fuel management. stock injectors and fuel pump should be fine for the time being, those you can always replace as time goes on

 

even on 3-4 lbs of boost I would think the stock pump would get pretty maxxed. I don't know what it flows, or what size the stock injectors are though so... Personally I'd just wait till I had everything and do it right. Otherwise you could end up breaking things and just having a rough time with it.

 

if you read the thread, it clearly says in the very first post that i have the Apexi Safc FMU

as for everything else, for 5 psi, i shouldnt have to worry about upgrading anything right away. A new clutch will come, as well as injectors and stuff, but i play to just keep the boost low til i get those items.

 

Becarful frank FUCKED me by sending me a cold air intake with no mass air flow sensor hole. told me to let it dangle in the breeze and if I didnt like it i could sell it on ebay. WHAT A ****!!!! SELL IT ----ON EBAY AS WHAT.... A 2 AND A HALF FOOT PAPER WEIGHT THAT LOOKS LIKE ****!!! It took over 3mo to get this wrong part and he will not refund my money. if I see any threads with maximum boost in it im going to let EVERYONE know what a shyster this dude really is. GOOD LUCK!!
ps. I filed a claim with internet fraud.

 

its a turbo made by ss autochrome a garrett t3 imitation. that wat frank told me.
