7-M-G-T-E's Complete Rebuild!

[7-m-g-t-e]

If i do it, its going to be a 12 Degree clip if that helps narrow the answers and suggestions down. From what i understand its not very much and will help the turbo spool a little faster.

I had a 10* clip on mine...

 

[7-m-g-t-e]

Did it perform well or did u regret it?

 

[Reign_Maker]

Didnt last long enough for me to know really... It blew the seals two weeks after I got it... NEVER EVER buy a used turbo... ever...

 

[7-m-g-t-e]

Oh yours was used? Well mine is going to be pretty much brand new maybe it might be a completely different story... who knows but before i do it i want to know dowards input on it... i submited a thread on the turbochargers section so well see what he says about it...

 

[7-m-g-t-e]

Well after a HUGE Pause on my project, it's time to push play again... I just received my Greddy 1.5mm HG staight from Japan! Only thing is i can't read the dam instructions because their in Japannese... lol So if anyone can let me know how much i have to torque them down to i would really appreciate it. Also any other information i should know please let me know... Also my 57 trim turbo upgrade is complete so looking forward to get it hopefully friday, will post pics of HG tomorow and Pics of Turbo soon to come...

Just get ARP head studs and follow their instructions. I beleive the number it says is 85 ft/lbs. I dont have the page in front of me so if I am wrong please correct me. Also, be sure to follow the correct procedure when torquing it down.

Is it time to push play again on this build????????Looks like you have almost everything you need to put that good looking motor in that car.
Maybe I should send my whores over to get you a little excited

 

[7-m-g-t-e]

Well I think i would appreciate the whore's to get me excited!!! But unfortunately i wasn't able to get my car done by my birthday which was on the 13th of June :3d_frown: because the piece that belongs in the red circle was cracked so i barely found a replacement for it yesterday

Also my f*cking camera messed up but i do have pics on my motorola RIZR its my new phone. so i just need to get an adapter to hook up the memory card. But alot of updates... Motor has been completely put back together including my beautiful turbo New rims are in and already raped with 245-45-17's in the front and 275-40-17 in the rears I just need to mount them on. Also I bought my suspension on Wednesday Blistein Shocks with Eibach Proline springs in the front and Tokico Illumina II's shocks with H&R Springs with TEMS in the rear. Also should receive my Aeromotive FPR Kit on Monday. And I sent my Denso 550cc Injectors to get flowed and cleaned so still waiting on the result of those. Hopefully everything comes out well. Pics will be up as soon as I get my adapter so STAY TUNED!!!!

A 12 deg clip make the turbo spool slower, but give better top end. The fastest spool would be unclipped.

Thanks alot Jake, the car is really dirty right now and were having a little issues with oil leak, but hopefully it all gets finished today so I can wash it and take better pics can't wait. I had a question I was driving it normal and it was running fine but then I tried down shifting to third going 40 and stepped on it it responded hard at first and after like 2 seconds it like just bogged down then it wanted to take off again but then bogged down again and kept doing that. I think its because the turbo is bigger the engine wants more fuel and its running on stock Injectors and stock ECU. Correct me if im wrong or what ya'll think is causing that to happen.

Darn the turbo is already finished and on the car with the wheels clipped. Oh well its ok as long as it runs well and can hold as a daily driver im ok... Another project will hopefully be underway after this one. What will it be...:naughty: It's a secret :evil2:

Wheels... are beautiful! Good job!

 

[ForcedTorque]

Car is looking great! I love the wheels............black on black is SEXY. And, other mods look nice as well. Fix that digi-cam.

BUT.........Did I miss the part where you got this thing running? Engine problems sound like fuel cut to me.

Well the motor is in, but I have an oil leak on the bolt that goes on the block that feeds oil to the turbo. IDK what to do... I have put seals and tightened it really tight, at first oil sprayed out bad, now it barely comes out but i don't know what else to do

But here's a pic of my Aeromotive Fuel Pressure Regulator Kit

And here's another pic of the car. I cleaned it up a bit.
