Delco wizzard is been a big help with my project i couldnt of done it with out him and also iblown has given me alot of advice to thanks to you guys i have a near completed turbo car delcowizzard will be changing my vs ecu with a vr ecu so i can use a 2 bar map sensor and get rid of the maf (as you will see in my later pics theres not alot of room for my new pod filter) also will be doing a realtime tune to tune it perfectly getting a button put in the dash so i can push it and have instant higher boost (havent got to al this yet will let you guys have a look at progess before i go to far) my turbo will be running off all 6 banks and will have the crossover pipe at the back under my gearbox so unseen untill you get under there please enjoy my write up and any q's you might have i can try answer or try find out the answers cheers

fitting

fitting of the intercooler i had to push back the trans cooler and move back the power steering loop

this is what it looks like now with the intercooler fitter

heres also a pic just after i fitted the reverse plenum and intercooler piping

pics of the mani

pic of the mani fitted

now with the turbo bolted on to see if it all fits

more trial and error

need to redo the mani pretty much sitting to close to the middle need to move it closer to the gaurd so need to re cut and reweld
as you can see in the pic not alot of room for the pod

and this is a pic of what its sitting there like now just have to brain storm on how im going to fix

What are your plans for bracing the turbo/exhaust? Don't forget to factor that in.

Edit: At second glance; how is the exhaust getting under the car?

cammo hes going to mount the dump to the manifold with a bracket so it doesnt hang off the turbo causing any strain and will allso have a flexijoint in the pipe as well to give it more protection.the wastegate is looking like its in the way right now but he thinks there is enough room to go over the top and down.but it may need removing to elsewhere yet its still in the building phase and being hes not really mechanically minded hes done bloody well so far to even make a manifold and fit the plenum.ive been helping via email and messenger but its hard to explain stuff from far away.if i had some spare time ide shoot up and help but ive been waiting till its nearly done so i can shoot up for a few days to a week and tune it i dont really have time to go away for a couple of weeks.once i sort the few VS tunes ive got to fix due to bad eproms i will have some time to shoot up and help maybe.

 

[camstatic]

Figured you'd have him sorted.

looks like i might fly up early and help if i get these VS tunes fixed out the way fast enough
