thanks!
Several hours + goop off + rerouting a few wires, you get this.
not the best, but definitely cleaned up the engine bay a lot!
still waiting on my downpipe flange do get made, then i can take it to the exhaust shop, then tuned
dam bro hx35 I just put mine on with a t3 to t4 spacer. The dp was a bitch to make but its worth it bro. Boost comes on hard but not till 5000 rpm or so.
cars finally put together and sounds great with just the downpipe on!
taking it to the exhaust shop on monday, and hopefully can figure out this issue with the dipstick.
im running a driftmotion style header with the t4 flange toward the back of the engine. im not able to run the factory dipstick (i would have to hack up my old one to fit), do you guys recommend any aftermarket one i can run that will clear my new header?

When i was running my holset HX35 on my 4 cylinder, i was getting like 10PSI at 2700 rpm, i would think it would spool quicker on the straight 6.. i think i had full boost around 3500
Your red wire is bugging me.
Run it through the hold next to the battery and under the fender and follow the body harness and run it through the boot of the body harness.
Also stick the relay behind the fender as well on the pass side.
Looks great tho.

they hx was of a water pump cummins motor not sure what the ar is but its a great turbo. The t4 I have is the same as driftmotion just bend the shit out of the tube and it will work just fine.
Kakanator, I bet you'll pick up quite a bit of power by changing out your plastic/rubber intercooler pipes with the aluminum ones.

Do you have a sound clip? How much does the manifold change the exhaust tune?
ill try and get a sound clip here soon
bad news earlier, turbo will need a rebuild. i was taking a chance with a used turbo off a diesel with 100k miles anyway, smokes quite a bit.
wastegate needs rotated 90* from how it is now. the dump tube only has a couple inches and hits the oil pan
with the new header the car has a deeper sound and sounds more cammed which is awesome. still using the same 272 snyder racing cams
edit: kakanator, did you ever get your car dyno'd with that turbo?

hx35 is cheap to rebuild, i went to a local truck shop and had them order me the kit, 100 bucks, rebuilt it myself. just need some snap ring pliers and a small torque wrench.. mark the from wheel on the shaft and put it back exactly like it was.. had no issues to date.. i managed to get a hx35 that was water cooled as well though. not sure if ill hook that up on the 1j or not, as it doesnt really need it. it does help with cooling the turbo though..
Awesome build, I plan on going with this setup as soon as I purchase the supporting fuel mods first.

The only thing that worries me about rebuilding my own turbo, I can't balance it. I'm too afraid that it'll be ever so slightly off balance and at 100k+ rpms, that can be dangerous.
