everythings is wired direct

key switch to start the car

switches for fuel pump, fan, headlights, taillights

engine harness with hotwired, there are 5 wires you need to make a KA/SR run

ecu power, ecu backup power, ignigion power, ground, and a wire to the startere solenoid wire all that up to the key switch and it will fire right up

holy shit welds!

 

 

and LAWL at the choice of intercooler piping, HAHAHAHA

 

I hope you did most of that on purpose! (with purpose of being cheap shit for people to gawk at)

 

 

Yeah its just thrown together with the cheapest parts around lol

Little tiny dsm turbo, and the side mount to match, didnt even want to buy a manifold, just crapily welded the factory one up to accept the turbo

Flux welder and i am not a welder

Picked up the shell that had already had the engine and tranny "mount" kit for an SR which is the same as a KA

I already had the ka stuff from my old s13 so i just tossed it together

 

Cheap turbo setup welded diff ready to go

 

I plan on making it a little nicer setup after this winter

Cool, but you know theres like no air flow going to get to that sidemount intercooler thats mounted behind the radiator?

 

I am aware, its better than the "no intercooler" that some guys do

And the 5 psi t25 probably isn't too much in need of a proper IC

After winter everything will be getting done properly

 

I tried to throw this car together real quick for an event

Problems occured and it didnt get finished

 

If it blows up im out $50 for another engine

Single cams are dirt cheap
