plus the sound of a BOV goin off is quite inspiring :D
if i had money...n i mean shit loads, id get a Spoon block, n turbo the fark outta that!
Man dat is fully hektic bruz. hektic hektic hektic bro
im no engine wiz, but from what i know when doing turbo conversion, engine must go out, no way it can stay in the car and yet put everything on, i evenfrom the pictures, no pistion were install, cause no way you can install pistons with pull the engine apart, but letus know how it goes.
The more i read this the more i'm leaning towards you getting ripped, but yeah its your money you spend it how you want, we just putting in opinion. Good luck with the project
turbo installs are very easy to do without pulling the engineQuote:

There are a lot of unsubstantiated total BS claims in this thread that deserve to be flamed.
Personally I can't be bothered. Faily amusing though... :rolleyes:

Not sure if i missed this question somewhere in this massive thread, but where did you get that cooler? what size is it cause i'm after one just like it?
Quentin dw brotha i showed my old fart friend that knows this stuff he said it looks pretty good, good price too. if you need anything else done contact me through sam cause the same friend i showed it too done graphic designing for this new custom shop called JD CUSTUMS and he can help you out for cheap and neat job too, my friend got his turbo done for free cause he designed all the advertising sh** for him so he can look after you too.Quote:

qball..
ive been through this very same process with you with my dc2 vtir about 3 years ago..
all i can say is this.. dont take your mechanics word as concrete... they will lie to you and i guarantee that something major has gone wrong, hence the huge delay. I struggle to understand why u have choosen to to resleeve the cylinders, heck i did that even thought i was running 15psi max!
but anyways, with that said, i hope everything works out fine and i promise you that the wait will be worthwhile... just make sure everything is fully documented and all work is guaranteed!

dayum... quentin nice going with the teg !~!!! cant wait to see it in person :)
getting it this week yeh Gball ?
nice mods man...interested to see how it goes against a worked type r teg....no doubt it would kick one at the top end but . interesting to see the size of your intercooler..isnt it a touch too small or are you keeping it under 10 psi and relying on the size and flow capabilities of the t3 to achieve hp with minimal boost..???
