Good luck Jim, let me know if you need help sir. I still have your map sensor as well.

 

You're going to be very impressed with the fit and quality of everything. I'm in the middle of my ptuning installation, also just handling in my spare time. Advice I've received; purchase braided lines for the water feed and drain to the turbo and heat wrap the motor mount around the bushing. What clutch are you going with? You might run out of steam with the 725 injectors before you would like. What are you going to use to control boost?

 

Got advice but a turbo blanket will solve any issues with feed lines and the bushing.

 

It's the mani that gets super hot as well.

 

Where did you get the braided lines? What did you use to heat wrap the motor mount?? I currently have a sos sport clutch installed. I think it will be good enough. Toan and mase say the 725 will be plenty.

 

I posted links in my build thread. I haven't wrapped the mount yet but I'm sure any exhaust wrap will do. My build thread is "Finally, Lil Red goes turbo". A turbo blanket is also a good idea as recommended by s2000442, but I'd also prefer the added security of the braided lines.

 

My bro has the kit so I know the ptunning kit very well. Make sure you get the new soft 100a yellow motor mount insert. With the stiffer mount the car will be a super loud horrible rattle box.

 

That's what I've got. Thanks.

 

Which blanket fits this one ?

 

This is front toan from ptuning.
"The standard T3 turbo blanket may not be compatible with the Tial turbine housing that we use. You may want to contact www.atpwrap.com instead. They should have specs for an inconel heat shield for use with our turbine housing. This would be a better alternative than a blanket. Truth be told though, due to the thin wall stainless steel design of the Tial housing and the location of our turbocharger, heat radiation is honestly not an issue. The three customers that have tracked their cars did so with no blankets or wraps. I personally say don't worry about adding one. "

I contacted ATP and it's pretty expensive. 375 for manifold and 290 for turbo housing. Has anyone used them ?

Blanket is cheaper but will it fit??
