Ok guys an update...

I really wanted to have this on before I went back to college, thats not going to happen but I still shouldn't be long now. I have done everything I can do to get it on already but I keep having setbacks. I won't bore you with all thats happend to me this summer. The manifold is off at the welder's. The only thing I don't have is the IC piping. The ONLY piping I can find on ebay is from CA which would take about a week to get to me. Which doesn't leave time for installing before I move back to boone.

I am talking to a company that us 318 people love to hopefully make a turbo M42 chip for us. They seem intrested to get on the bandwagon.

The setup will be the mopar garrett T3 runing 8psi. It should have around 210-215hp. Stock internals, turbo chip, 10:1 FMU, Ford 24# injectors. I will more than likly combine the COP project w/ this.

I will have to come back home at the end of August to pick up the manifold and work on the chip, and then I will prob install in boone. If anyone has any leads on IC piping on the east coast that doesn't cost a ton let me know please

more pics will be added to the first posts asap!

here is the manifold that will become turbo manifold

Are they going to be building you this turbo chip based on the idea that you're using an FMU? I'm still really interested in making a turbo chip if you weren't so far away :mad:

We'll have a final version of our N/A chip very soon though

well guys once again another setback

My welder is REALLY backed up at the moment. He said it would be at least a month before he could think about it. All is not lost though. I'm just going to take the manifold to Korman and have them shoot it up for me, I should have used them in the first place but I know they have lots to do themselves. I hopefully will be going back to greensboro next weekend to do the install. I just hope my professors don't try to set me back again. It will be a long weekend but I plan to come home on fri and drive back to school sat w/ the turbo on. Cross your fingers guys!!

School sucks ass, I can't wait to work on my car now that I'm graduated. Gotta get a job first though.... anyway can't wait to see if you're successful in this undertaking, good luck!

you and me both.

I am prob going home this weekend. I'll replace my guibo and having the manifold welded. I'll prob cut the oil lines to fit while I'm at Korman.

dang guys, sorry about the delay. I have had tons of crap going on lately and I am completely stressed out. I'm not going to get into it all, expecially on a car forum lol but the turbo project has suffered from all this. Its kinda at a stand still at the moment.

I may be going MS instead b/c a friend has one that he may be selling me b/c he doesn't need it. Soo I may be selling the paxton FMU. I also have yet to make time to put on my freakin guibo that is seriously almost half gone.

So its gonna get on there but I just have to deal w/ all this crap and get going again. All this freakin crap is even affecting my school work. Soo whatever.

asubimmer · « **Reply #43 on:** September 21, 2006, 06:03:47 PM »
