Ive been tossing around the idea of boost for a while now. I had an 11 sec D/D Talon. Sold it over a year ago and the darn boost bug keeps bothering me. There are a lot of SRT-4s and WRXs around me and they make me want it even more.
So I broke down and dropped some money, just my way of helping the economy! Atleast thats why I tell the wifey.
Unfortunately, being I spent more money on a few parts than I budgeted for, I had to cheap a few things for NOW.
Str Cast manifold, t3 flange, 38mm external WG.
Turbonetics Deltagate 38mm wastegate
t04e .63 a/r hot side, 50 trim compressor., not ebay! but needs a compressor cover... dude tried porting oulet and went to thin and cracked it.
ebay 28x7x2.5 intercooler kit with piping. <--- here is where I cheaped out, should be ok as long as it doesnt leak.
-10 an drain line
-4 an oil feed
all 2.5" intercooler piping.
Walbro 255lph pump
LSJ injectors
Aeromotive AFPR
Secret cams
Only things I need to buy at this point will be the exhaust tubing to make the turbo downpipe and the wastegate piping.
Most stuff should be in by sometime next week, and will take me a while to put it on. Still debating on if I want to do a stock rebuild for now just to freshen things up. I wont be running more than the 9psi the wastegate is set at.
Comments, questions, concerns?
"Oil Leak ? What oil Leak ? Oh, Thats Just The Sweat From All The HorsePower!!"

Hey buddy do you happen to have any pics of how your intercooler piping is ran? I have a couple ideas, just havent fully decided which way im going.

I dont have any updated pics of my charge piping, was gona do some things today and take pics but it rained on me. I got my charge piping all welded off of dragracemyz24, just modified them a bit to fit my setup.
If you search youll find either the turbo Ld9 pic thread, or just the all Ld9 pic thread with tons of different setups. If your auto, its much easier to run them up and by the timing side of the motor, then down past the a/c.
