A couple new pics
Thursday, October 09, 2008 4:42 PM
Hey, i finally got around to taking some pics. Mind you the engine bay isn't the cleanest, but it does the job quite well. lol.
Click on the pics to make them bigger.
I'm running the Saab setup, running 9psi of boost. It was tuned by Raven at Raven Autosports. It put down 192hp and 212torque on 6 pounds of boost.
Other specs should be in my profile. And yes, lol i am going to clean the interior this weekend.
Not really sure if i like the rims or not, i got em' dirt cheap so i decided to try them out on the front to see if i'd grow into them. For future plans i'd LOVE to get my hands on an Xtreme tuner body kit, this is probably the only kit i'd consider buying. Evil eyes are definitly in the near future, i've got another Ecotec on a stand all torn down, awaiting a forged bottom end.
Opinions and comments always welcome.
Thanks,

One word.....DIRTY!

I remember seeing pictures of that turbo/manifold after they were coated, they seem to be holding up pretty good considering how hot that little turbo gets. Why are you only running 6psi?

hahaha i know i know, it's dirty as F. Between work and school there hasn't been much time. She'l be getting a good cleaning this weekend. Interior is being cleaned as we speak. I'm not only running 6 psi. I'm running 9 now.. I'd like to run higher numbers but haven't got around to turning boost up yet, I'd like to get around 11-13. I'm not sure if the turbo'd be able to hold up to those kinds of pressures hough. When i first dyno'd it at 8 pounds it would stay at 8 til like 3500-4000then creep down to 6 from around 4500-6200.
The turbo really does get hot. after coming onto it probably 3-4 times coming from my girlfriends the turbo was glowing red. lol.
Nice cavipower, I'l be getting mine painted hopefully next season (Daytona Blue) if the moneys there. The car's got quite a bit more pep to it now.

haha i took that with my cell phone. and it wouldn't all fit in going straight on.
and Yup, James did install the turbo, i'm not sure about Steve's car. I just got back from Florida so i haven't really talked to James much.
Big thanks goes out to Raven Autosports by the way
