So long old friend.....

[reddo_tuner]

cost?

[haydn28]

that i cant say , i know u looking for quick spool up , the gt25 should flow about 25lbs/m of air at 15psi , so could make good power on pump gas

[reddo_tuner]

pm me his number and i'll contact him, what would I need to bolt to the manifold and such

[Hibrydsoul]

Please make sure to post the work up on here..... (paying attention)

[haydn28]

jus call this guy that set up this car and build an equal length runner type manifold like this one :

Ryan always going big, looks impressive as always but what will a manifold cost in this case....I not looking to spend a set ah money again...and I'm getting the IHI turbo at a good price...

[reddo_tuner]

Right now, I'm concerned with two things: 1) what it costing and 2) how long meh car gonna be down

but what about the IHI turbo? Is it good?

[haydn28]

which model u getting?

[reddo_tuner]

Its the one of the legacy I believe, I'll have to verify

[reddo_tuner]

getting a t25 and manifold for a decent bit so I'm trying this avenue, comments and questions are more than welcome, will try to get pics of the build and such

[outrider]

I came across this d other day

[reddo_tuner]

Anyone who can source the lines and other misc parts I will need, contact me via pm, thanks!

[Hibrydsoul]

What's the latest on this project?

[reddo_tuner]

looks like I might be staying ct9 for a bit, cash flow es low

[reddo_tuner]

Got a question: I am hearing a lot of air and no power on take off, it may be a boost leak but If it isn't what else could cause that, the turbo? the wastegate?

[secret_service]

Won't you know a boost leak from watching your boost levels?

Could be you are hearing a exhaust leak at the manifold.

Mine sound like that right now. So boost comes on later

[reddo_tuner]

hmmmmmm....will look into that exhaust leak....

[reddo_tuner]

Yes people, the 5efhe engine inside but still some work to be done, oil lines for the turbo, i need original downpipe for the t25 and hot air pipe, x cable lil too short so I looking for a similar cable cept a couple inches longer. I'll take pics as soon as I can get a camera

[xtech]

Ah yes man

u still auto?

[reddo_tuner]

Yes, I am using back the transmission, I added a cooler to help out but I figure it will need to be rebuilt soon but right now I am trying to get the lines for the oil and water, I might try fabricating some braided brakes lines to work, we'll see

[xtech]

Cool....

I deleted the water lines which go to the turbo when I upgraded to TD04 , to compensate I installed another oil cooler just for the turbo

[reddo_tuner]

ahhhhh....interesting, must try that later on. Well, got the oil line made today, braided from Trinidad hose, hooked up the manifold and turbo and harness, it seem that the seals on the 4efte injectors are smaller than the ones on the 5e, so switched those. Im using the 4efte injectors on the 5e fuel rail.

After we sorted that out, filled the engine with water and started her up, started in a one yes So now its just to installed the radiator, connect the piping and cut the exhaust and get the flange welded. One issue is the X cable seems to be sorter on the 4e, is there any x cable that can work that is longer?

[reddo_tuner]

Question: the intake manifold on the 5e has 8 runners, how does this work? Does the management activate it? thanks!

[xtech]

The 5E ECU activates it so if want it to work as is u will have to use the 5E harness and add in a piggyback to keep things happy under boost

But even then it only works when u have vacuum..... lol

You will have to rig up a vacuum storage device to keep it working.

My fix.... use the 4E harness and dump the vacuum powered actuator and install a electric actuator which is activated using a output on the piggyback.

So did u swap out pistons or are you running a standard high compression 5E?

its high compression, I am using the 4e harness, i didn't remove the actuator though.....

[reddo_tuner]

Look de piccsssssssssssssssss


This is how she looks so far, just need a downpipe and a A/C belt and of course a tune

[Hibrydsoul]

I would love to hear how she sounds once completed....

[reddo_tuner]

NP the tune I believe will be crucial though

[Zeriam]

NP the tune I believe will be crucial though

so this means no more keeping up with u on the road then?

[reddo_tuner]

i dunno.....
