My car is finally up and running. and STRONG.

well be warned. DONT PUT together a custom kit thinking its going to be cheaper, because its not.


As many of you know, I had major smoke issuees, sent the turbo to percesion. got it back.. my diff blew out.. had puddymaster make me a stage 2.. THANKS PUDDY!!!

Percsion instructed me to put in a restrictor, that http://www.swiftracing.com/SRT/conte...s/default.aspx makes.. its custom, goes on Journal turbos, on the turbo itself. and it did the trick.. no more smoking.

right now just waiting for my new clutch/rear to get broken in before I go for the retune.

i made 345rwhp on 8psi. and clutch slipped so we couldnt continue.

right now im just happy to be enjoying my car.

NOTE: if you want the restrictor, just visit the link above and give a call to Mo. He will take care of you. its a custom built restrictor.

 

Did you add a restrictor to a -4 AN line? What size hole is in the restrictor? I ask this because if youre using a -4 AN line and went with something like a .080" restrictor, you could have just went with a -3 AN line instead, the ID is around .080" on the ends.

 

-4an line. Not sure what the restrictor size is to be honest, not now at least, i have the specs at my house. Im at work at the moment.

this is a journal turbo not a bb.

 

Mine is a journal bearing turbo also.

 

not including the cost of me having to buy two AEM's (first one was used and broken) and blowing my motor (too much timing in the basemap) my custom made (by me) kit is a hellll of a lot cheaper than what a good kit for an s2k costs. and mine makes just as much, if not more power

 

well its because u know what your doing.

most people dont, and try.

 

^^ the kit i built well the turbo setup i did was cheaper than any kit
