My turbo came with a 2.5 in v band out on the exhaust side. I mean it only has a 57mm back side so it wont matter.

 

Epic.

 

Wow!! I can't wait to get my car back!!!! I'm happy for going to get the job done by BYT. At the beginning I was supposed to get the job done somewhere else because I didn't know him at the beginning, but then I was able to gain info about him and I've received great info about him from a lot of people, plus he was recommended to me also by the manufacturer. And when a manufacturer recommends you to somebody, it means he is serious and trustable, since a vendor would never take a chance to lose their reputation regarding their products.
I would like, in the meantime, to thank Mkriebs for answering my endless questions professionally. His answers really helped me to choose this kit. The werks customer support honestly is really outstanding. That's what a customer looks in first place from a vendor when purchasing some of their products. And I recommend myself Autowerks to everybody as vendor. No matter what question you have and what time of the day you are calling them for info, they are always there for their customers, they always stand behind their products 100%, and I'm sure I can rely on them if I will have problems about their products in the future.
I would also like to thank whyyoumadson for all his feedback, since he has my same kit, that's another reason that helped me choose Autowerks.
I am sure I made the right choice about both the vendor and the mechanic (BYT) that is doing the labor. As I recommend Autowerks to everybody, the same applies to BYT. Don't just look at the prices, the first thing to look at is the quality of the product and the way they handle the relationships with their customers.
Again, can't wait for my car lol

 

Awwww I feel all warm and cozy inside now!!!! Lol. You are gonna love the car man! I know when I had the turbo on my car, just prototyping the kit it was pure insanity!

 

Ahahahahaha I'm happy to make you feel like that!!! I'm sure I will love the car!!! I remember some past threads where people were giving you hard time for the fact that there are not a lot of info or a lot of cars around on this forun regarding your kits and their performances.
I will sure post comments, pics and videos once I get my car!! I'm sure your products are well worth it, that's why I've decided to invest my money in your products, so if I can help proving more feedback and data, I will be happy to do it.

 

Which one do I have of the 2?

 

Yeah, its all a part of bringing out new products. We can't afford to pay for test cars, so we usually get one prototype car, then let time take its course and people will soon find out what its all about.

As for the turbo, you have the one with the 3" inlet. We find no significant gains for most people with the larger cover, and it helps us fit it behind the engine a bit better.

 

So the turbo kit that I got from you guys is the latest you have released?

Once again, thank you for all the support you gave me.

 

We released 2 kits at the same time. The 460hp kit, which is no longer available, and the 535hp kit, which is what you got. I was merely stating that there are 2 different types of Precision 5557 turbos.

 

Again, can't wait to test it!!!!! Hopefully in a week I will be able to

 

what was done to the car before this?

 

I bought it used. It only had a tune and the exhaust

 

By the way, there is a little mistake on the initial list. The brake pads that I bought are not the HPS, but the HP+

 

And it looks like Nick is moving pretty fast on installing the parts. Not only quality work, but also quick work

 

fo sho. lol well needless to say its gonna be justt a little bit more fun to drive

 

Lol well I hope it will be much more fun to drive. I'm gonna have almost twice the power compared to before.

I'm just concerned about the traction

 

there will be traction










in thirdd haha. will be one bad ass highway monster though. Congrats

do you have plans of using any drag radials at the track

 

Don't know yet. Right now I even have winter tires. Will see in the summer I'm getting new tires, and I'm definately going to some kind of tracks

 

Thanks, you will be very happy when you get this back!


Car is def moving along quickly, all of the parts are off to Powder Coating, the rear suspension, wheel studs, new rotors etc. are all wrapped up! The stock turbo was pulled last night and we test fit the Werks manifold and Turbo. Need to clock the turbo tonight and then test fit the Intake and CP's. Ill post more pics as we keep completing stuff!

1st post has 2 new pics.

 

Will be posting some new pics tonight. The turbo and manifold and mounted and positioned, trans and subframe are all back in. Axles are back in, suspension is bolted up and the wheels are on! It rolled around yesterday lol.

By the time we get the Powder Coated parts back we will wrap up the gauge installs and then the rest of the turbo kit parts. Getting close

 

Quit slacking and get it on a dyno! Sheesh!

 

Ahahahahha great Matt

 

nice nice nice looks great!
did you end up keeping the stock strut mounts?
or what kind did you use?

 

Surely you are talking about the strut hats?

 

yea i suppose like the mount thats part of the body theres a seperate piece that goes in there i actually blew my strut through it apparently monroe makes them for like 20 bucks a piece if you look at the stock its the shrouded thing over the nut on top
im just asking because it looks like there arent any strut mounts on that pic of the top of the pedder strut once its installed i mean im asking more the guy doing the work
exactly what kind he used cause it doesnt look like its the stock one
