Turbo vp commodore.

[turbo_vp_v6]

Doing up a turbo kit for my vp thought i might show it off. not quite finished yet but will be very soon.

[turbo_vp_v6]

Had a request for some more pics so here they are. only running 8 psi at the moment will be going up to 14 very soon.









more pics in my photobucket page.

and this is all home made too not some kit you can buy. i take pride in my work.

Nice how much did the tune cost?

[turbo_vp_v6]

i got it at mates rates.

[rk has a vn]

I want a forces induction.....

[turbo_vp_v6]

exhaust is all done now will have all the throttle body bits and pieces back together tonight and hopefully bumper back on tomorrow after work. then time for a cruse and maybe a dyno run.

[.FOREVER SIDEWAYZ.]

nice car mate hows it go ?

[turbo_vp_v6]

just a few more quick pics will be going for a drive in it tonight and hope to get on the dyno on the week end. FOREVER SIDEWAYZ will let you know. though when i drove it home the other day i had a huge smile on my face.

nice car mate hows it go ?

took the car to work today to finish a few things off. went for a drive after and all i can say is #### me!!!! running at 8 psi and it wants to spin the wheels at 100 k/h in the top of second gear.

Nice dude when you getting the dyno? are you going to take it to the track?

[turbo_vp_v6]

hoping to get to the dyno on Saturday. this car is a daily drive and a burnout car and a drag strip car all in one. lol. thinking i might have to put my spooled 4.11 diff in for a few days for some fun.

[Bz Kn33z]

Go for 3.9s or under 4.11s might be abit to high. i got 3.9s in my manual and i wish i had 3.7s or 3.45s

[turbo_vp_v6]

dyno day went well. Car made 178.7 kw ( 250 hp ) at the wheels on 8 psi.

Looks like it will be one hell of a sleeper! If it was mine I wouldn't touch anything cosmetic on the exterior, sleeper all the way!

Good to see someone who takes pride in doing things for themselves and learning along the way. Ten times more satisfying this way!

Keep up the good work!

[turbo_vp_v6]

Thanks rusty .. I am leaving to car as it is now with standard wheels and all. Just a little scary with only 205/65/15 on the back though. i like the sleeper look. suits it so well.

[delcowizzid]

lol at the 205's least they are cheap to replace i slid round on 215's for ages for that reason.now you need an exhaust and some more boost :P

[turbo_vp_v6]

mate might be giving me his 3 inch exhaust and will turn the boost up after i fix brakes. no good going fast if i cant stop. lol

[turbo_vp_v6]

Well brake parts are here now so i can fix that prob up. Might have found a vp flywheel so i might go manual yet. Dyno run is going to happen again soon straight out the dump pipe in drag spec at 12 - 14 psi. should be fun.

[turbo_vp_v6]

Just a few pic as an update. started doing all the brakes on my car and just thought i would do the master cylinder as well. found a 1 inch cylinder and the booster to go with it from a donor car. also had the v8 front brakes so i grabbed then as well. Have rebuilt the front calipers and the booster now time to start on the back and the master cylinder.

[turbo_vp_v6]

car is now 90 % done now. just need 1 or 2 more things. v8 brakes are working very very well. pity about the back ones.

[Bz Kn33z]

Correct me if i am wrong, but didnt the VP come out standard with V8 brakes? or is it the S2 VPs or something.

[Morton]

Only S2 VPs did

[turbo_vp_v6]

well there you go i did not know that at all. learn something new every day. any one know where i can get a manual flywheel from?

[Bz Kn33z]

Cheers Morton i thought i was leaning more towards the S2 haha

Looks tough as ,love it
