nice mate, ive just finished my build , its in the shop at he moment getting 3 inch mandrel put on. my motor is stock thow. ive got same setup as yours, how much roughfly have you spent on the intternals for your motor mate , as i know mine wont last too long. only running 6 psi .
ummmm how much well i dont want to say but for all the internals close to $5,000 but the exchange rate from the states was **** at the time. plus u have to add on machining and gaskets and that. horse power factory can do mafless tunes on the ecotecs. they did it for me when i used to have it supercharged and i didnt have a problem with it. 6psi u should be fine mate. im planning on running around 15 when i drive it and maybe 20 when i take it to the track it get painted on the 29th so i will have more pics up of the body all together and how it all looks. how much is your exhaust setting u back. i still have to get mine made up
my exuast is costin 550 and its for a vs wagon. when this block hits the wall im thinkin bout building a low comp block so i can wined the boost up, i know ill get board of 6 psi eventually. ive got my photos of my build up in v6 performance section.
ohhh i had 160rwkw with my supercharger setup and got bored in a week with the power so bigger is better i always get told.lol ill check your ride out
by the way wat fans r u running on your car seeing as u have the turbo in the same place as mine the standard ones wont fit
yeah nice. need to post up some more pics now she is finished..... will do it this week i think!! if i get time.
ahh i just got a 16 inch single slim line fan.. only been for 1 drive but she didnt heat up at all. tried to cut the original fan shroud but still wouldnt fit!!
yeah. im thinking of getting 2 fans off the front of a vr commodore. they r about 16 inch slim line fans. il find out 2morow when i go to the wreckers
Nice work mate, I like the interior conversion. Just one question, does that steering wheel still have an airbag?
hahahaha no it doesnt have a airbag so its not road worthy. its only a **** steering wheel i had floating around. i plan on getting a nicer one when the car is just about on the rd. ill get some good seat and interior pics once its painted after the 29th so i will have all my door trims in and that. but i dont think any of my car is road worthy any more so why bother with just a steering wheel.
hahahaha yeah took me a while. but the engine has been sitting in the garage for the past 4 months pretty much as i lost interest. but pissed off the gf and need a car to have fun in and pick up in.lol the little ford laser just doesnt do it for me anymore. i need to get back in my commodore and do wat i do best. lol should be running and on the rd in under 2 months if i keep ontrack with it like the past 2 weeks. ill have to put up the dyno paper when it gets tuned to let u know wat it makes on big boost
got my clutch today and fitted my gearbox and modified calais console to fit manual shifter. goes to get painted this weekend and ill put up some new pics how its all coming along
looks very nice. Something id like to do in the future. turbo my ute. That front bumper is interesting i like it. should have got the mould line filled in at well.
the wheels are buckled. i got them off a written off commodore i brought for parts. lol getting thrown out soon. i was thinking about getting rid of the body line but i used photoshop and it didnt look right. im thinking if i should either i should run a calais side mould or a vs s pak mould. any opinions would be good
