Patterson Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 he painted them but if you look threw the sponsors section of the forum you will find some of our powder coaters. :whistle: OP. What kind of power numbers are you looking to get on this set up. Excellent build. Progressing better than mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaddyBuiltRacing Posted January 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 Yeah I just painted them, 2 years and no chipping, flaking like everyone claimed would happen lol. Its all in the prep work really. I think I am going to freshen them up this spring, might change the color of them even. Power goals are right around 400whp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolved8 Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 So your going to spool at 6k? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaddyBuiltRacing Posted January 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Why would I spool at 6k? Pretty confident that this will start to spool alot quicker then that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolved8 Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Why would I spool at 6k? Pretty confident that this will spool quicker then that Seems like a pretty large turbo for a 1.8 thats goals are only 400?? Maybe Iam wrong But I have seen these turbos come on no earlyier than 5.5k and up on hondas depending on setup what are you revving to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaddyBuiltRacing Posted January 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Well my setup is closer to a 2.0 for starters. I have seen these start spooling around 5200rpms, and the motors balanced to 12k rpms, so ill rev til it quits making power. Hopefully the ported and polished head helps speed spooling up some too. Maybe I said 400 just to throw people off as to how much power i really plan on making. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I said 400 just to throw people off as to how much power i really plan on making. Well Ill put my money on it around 5.4-5K then. There is no reason why you shouldnt make 600 whats your weak link? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noobiemcnooberson. Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Josh would you pm me how much you paid for that turbo? Tony1 has them for 949 plus shipping. Is yours t4 or t3? is that one of the turbos that takes the special v band fitting? This is Alex btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaddyBuiltRacing Posted February 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 2/22/10: I have been wanting to buy something for the car here lately. Tonight I finally pulled the trigger and ordered some parts. I bought some goodies from Go-Autoworks, I got a .065 oil restrictor, their black turbo line kit and a gasket for where the turbo meets the manifold. Also, a fellow member of another forum I get on sent me a VSS to replace my broken one for free!! Heres what the oil line kit looks like: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/oillines.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted March 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 3/9/11: So my gf is tired of hearing me complain about not having the car done so she has once again decided to help speed up the process. With her bonus check from work she bought me some intercooler piping from Go-Autoworks! Thanks!! I got the 2.5in piping, I think I am going to paint it black, but not sure. I know its not staying silver lol. I might have one more update this week, just waiting to see if the parts I have for sale actually sell or not. http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/piping.jpg 3/18/11: Hit up Matt out at SpeedFactoryRacing and ordered a Precision 46mm wastegate. One less thing to buy!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaddyBuiltRacing Posted March 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 3/20/11: Woke up this morning feeling motivated to work on the car. Started off by adjusting the valves with help from my dad. Then I had a couple buddies stop by and we got to thinking, "lets mount this intercooler", so thats just what we did. http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/mounting.jpg http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/mounting3.jpg http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/mounting4.jpg http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/mounting2.jpg http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/mounted.jpg Oh and my son (Tyson) lending a helping hand haha http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/tysondriving.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
