92554, Turbo Install Complete (with pics) Posted by buenrostrox, Jan-04-06 11:24 PM
I'm mostly an ASEC guy but I have gotten a lot of tech info from this site, so I thought I'd share ^_^.
Pre-Boost: MLS Gasket, ARP Studs, Timing belt and tons of other preventative maintence shit.
Hahn Stage II, NO GUAGES. I use the Zeitronix w/ EGT BOOST and Wideband sensors. RFL BOV, and my i/c piping was powdercoated silver. Hot side of the turbo and exhaust manifold are done in a black ceramic coat. Enjoy!

I agree, very nice. Do you work on your car in your PJ's? Looks like you or whomever took the pic has PJ bottom's on in the 5th picture. LOL I would recommend getting some t-bolt clamps when you can. Makes the coupler connections look cleaner imo

No...I just take pictures of my car in Pjs :P
I'll look into the clamps, I wouldn't mind cleaning it up a bit more with em, as you're engine bay can never be TOO clean.

You don't think that whole in the fender well cover will allow rocks/debris to damage the IC? I guess it would be more benefitial than damaging, maybe you would want to put a screen there or something?

how do you like your zeitronix
i love mine i opted to just use the laptop hookup its great you can record drag after drag and see it played back in nice easy to read screens
if it would do fuel and oil pressure i would rip out every gauge i have

The Zeitronix is amazing, being guageless rocks.
Old post, but updating, I'm now running a Hahn Portfueler and boosting at 8psi using a Greddy Profec B SPec II. Good times.

It's running fucking great, the transition from vac to boost is seamless, and my EGTs are consistently lower than with the old Carcrap setup. I'm using Hahn's Base map for the s16g, and it's rich as all hell (9.8:1 ish) and it still feels amazing, first time I upped the boost to 8psi, holy hell, I've never actually felt it put me in my seat like it did, and it's only going to get better :D.

NICE looking avenger! I thought about putting my zeitronix in that location as well. Does it get in the way of your hand when you shift?
p.s. what size wheels and tires are you running? (I can't make my mind up what I want...)

97198, RE: Turbo Install Complete (with pics) Posted by BlackMagic, Sep-13-06 11:11 AM
Very nice, portfueler is really easy to tune so get to it.
