Only because it's you... NO HOMO!!!

 

 

Sweet man.. did you guys do that turbo mani? That looks like an AWESOME piece of work...

 

Yeah, Ryan made it by hand. That material gauge is insane. It took him forever just to weld it...

 

They plan on producing any of those parts and be contenders with any existing manufacturers? You get the 2.2 alt and belt too?

 

They can make these parts again, but that's not what this thread is for. Don't want to get in trouble as they're not supporting vendors...

Yeah, I'm running the L61 Alt and tensioner...

 

RD FABS! them my boys! whats up man!

 

Not much. Getting antsy cause I want to go pick it up and start fine tuning...

 

OMFG that intake manifold and turbo manifold are nice as ****! Nice kit man, and thanks for hosting the pics on here!

Hey what did you do for the vacuum line for the PCV system? The pics are a bit dark in that area near that sexy ass intake manifold, or either that I can't focus in on that area due to me still being distracted by that intake manifold!

 

We tapped the PCV provision on the head and ran the line to a check valve below the IM. I'm not sure if I have any pictures that I could lighten up for ya, but I'll see what I can do. Worst case scenario, I can grab some more pics whenever I want after I pick it up this weekend, lol...

 

Interesting. I was just curious as to how you worked that one out. You will have a PM here in a moment on some other questions.

 

You have a PM, but unfortunately, you'll have to wait for this weekend to see pics. I won't forget ya, though!

 

u still got cams on it?
and is it on stock internals?

 

that is a sick looking turbo manifold

 

Cams and valvesprings, yes.

Internals, no...

Thanks!

 

o nice congrats.

 

Thanks!

Updated the second post with the only video I really have from this past weekend. I'll have more this weekend for ya!

 

am i blind or something..... i dont see where the air intake is..... i see all the piping going from the tb to the i/c, the i/c to the turbo, but no filter or anything. im not eactly a newb, just not the most experienced turbo guy here. i was thinkin bout starting a custom job with one of my buddies around here and just lookin for ideas. looks kickass btw man i hope u reach all ur goals u have with it

 

Thanks! I hope I reach my goals too!!!

Because of my choice of turbo, we went with a neat little design that's a tight fit by the turbo. Essentially, we did 4" pipe off the turbo for the BPV return and then cut up an oiled filter that we screened in.

Basically:
Compressor inlet>Pipe>Screen>Filter>Screen

I'll get pictures this weekend...

 

Very nice man, RDFABS does some great work. Ryan and the guys make it down to our car show each year and usually bring something interesting

Do you know if they used any velocity stacks on the insides of that intake mani? Looks like awesome work with everything!

 

Glad to see you doing all the fine tuning yourself Erik.

Looks great man!

 

The best part is that they're straight up guys. No worrying about them being shifty. That means more to me than most.

We could have done velocity stacks, but I didn't want to wait or pony up the extra dough.

I'm doing what I can. Have to learn a **** load, lol. I'm getting a lot of help from the brain trust on this one. It's gonna take a while for me to get the hang of it...

 

Very interested to know about the vacuum solution with that manifold.

 

Which aspect? The provision on the head, or every vacuum line???

 

Just looking at the SC then the Hahn manifold and this one. Wondering where all the lines that go on the other two would go on this one.
