this is my 95 rs-t. me n my dad rebuilt block after blowing past two:shrug
with built bottom je pistons and eagle rods. 1mm oversized vaulves, crower springs, adj cam gears, stock headgasket n bolts on the head.
ok first off i know xs power ae pos but everyone starts somewere and this is my start. i bought the whole turbo kit off ebay for around 450. including mani, fpr, bov,wastegate, turbo, and some 3' pipes and yes its for the 4g63 but i had my dads friend weld the 420a flange which fit nicely."plenty of room for porting"lol.
i know the manifold is prob going to crack so im looking for a shop to make one that could have some type of warantee. i've talked to kms already and priced one about 550 if i recall correctly, but thats later down the road. still send me a message if you know of one close
i've already fired her up and am itching to get some pipes for her but am on a tight budget now


also i have the apexi neo and am only going to run 5 psi on stock injectors untill i break in the engine and i've heard when boost kicks in you cant tune using it.? can some please straighten this out for me thx alot
sorry if posted in wrong spot im a newb



more pics comin soon!!!

u haters love me

what and the fucking holy hell is that thing?

did you pull that turbo from a broken down semi truck off the side of the highway?

your hood too? what the hell did you do!

you destroyed a 2g, thats a no no!

Stroked 2.2L

Isnt he missing part of the hard lines for the heater?

I mean thats the least of his worries... but still.

Please sir, I beg you, turn your car over to someone else! And not ANY of the people that helped you create that monstrosity.

You ruined one of the sexiest cars ever designed. I think a clean 2g will remain timeless. And you just made it look like it came straight out of a middle school shop class.

With that said, surrender the car, or take ALL of that shit off and buy a real kit. With a turbo that did not previously belong on the wrecker thats going to have to tow your car when you blow it a THIRD time.

No offense, I hope you understand.

That poor poor car...

ok, I am not a big fan of what was done to the car, but I think we are being a little bit harsh on the kid... I dont know if the ebay stuff will hold up and everything, but i think that this is a site were we should help each other and not bash on other people; it is not the pretiest looking thing I have seen, but atleast he doesnt have a 5 ft wing and a huge body kit...

In the end it is his car anyways, the most we can do is provide him with what we think would be best, but it is really up to him to listen or ignore.

the honda pic was funny though. lol

I wish I had blown it, believe me, I do...

holy huge hole in the hood batman!

Well the one smart thing you've done is you've discovered this site. Yes, we're all ripping on you right now, but with some time and effort put into research here, you can correct your setup and get all the right parts you need to boost your car correctly. But guess what, it's going to cost more than $450. Personally, I would remove everything and sell it and start from scratch. I would not feel comfortable using any of those parts from xs power. Only ebay items I would use would be intercooler/piping and exhaust as well as the LOG manifolds made for OUR CARS. Do you really want to trust your freshly rebuilt motor in the hands of those cheap knockoff parts. You'll be out even more money when your wastegate doesn't function properly or your fpr raise fuel pressure. (which by the way if it's an ebay fpr, it's a 1:1 which is a huge no-no for stock injectors) Start reading here:

"...atleast he doesnt have a 5 ft wing and a huge body kit..."

What? You didn't think there was worse than that?


You'd have to have some serious work done to use that turbo efficiently. You didn't think to go with a different radiator setup to avoid cutting the hood?

Somebody is going to see you parked somewhere and say "That's a really big turbo. Where are my tin snips?" That's if it makes it anywhere to park.

That looks straight out of www.homemadeturbo.com. Infact, i'm going to link this thread on there.

Those are REALLY big pictures.


What you spent hacking a shit manifold all to hell and welding a flange on it you could have bought a perfectly good cast manifold....

That thing is going to crack if it ever makes it's first real heat cycle. The tubing they use is crap 9 times out of 10. You really think it will hold up to however much that turbo weighs? How much does that thing weigh anyway?

I didn't butcher you too bad but i dont sugarcoat anything.

You need to read neons.org and this site as much as you can.

Read other people's build threads on BOTH sites. Search around for other people's projects to give you a realistic idea of what you can do and how to do it right.

Goodnight sweetheart...yes its time to go...bum bum bum bum bum...good night sweetheart yes I am one little a$$hole......bum bum bum bum....

Is that turbo mani upside down?? LOL
