#91986, "Finally done upgrading! pics inside."


          

Well after about 2 months of searching for and buying parts, my turbo/fuel upgrading is finally just about complete. I still have a couple of tweeks that need done, but for the most part, its done.
I had Terry custom make me his design of the 3" downpipe and dumptube for the wastegate and let me tell you, its simply amazing! The quality is just perfect, Thanks again Terry!
Now for what I upgraded to:

-Turbonetics 60-1 t3/t4 turbo
-Huge 28"x14"x3" intercooler
-All 2.5" Intercooler piping
-Greddy Type RS bov
-Accel 48lb injectors
-Bored out OBX Fuel rail
-Tial 38mm Wastegate
-Ceramic coated silver manifold and downpipe
-Custom 3" Test pipe

Now combine this combo with my recent rebuild of my head:
-Ported and Polished head
-5 angle valve job
-Crane 14 turbo cams
-Crane titanium valve springs
-Crane titanium retainers
-Stainless +1 oversized valves
-AEM cam gears

I cannot WAIT until spring to get the widebody back onto the road again, this motor should pull SUPER hard and spool up VERY quickly!

Enjoy some crappy pics I took:

The oil reurn did end up being low, not a problem however. The oil is not going to back up to the turbo and cause problems. Keeping the oil return high is just a rule of thumb. If the oil return is too small the oil can back up to the turbo. 1/2 or bigger will not though.

the fuel rail and the venom intake do absolutely nothing for you execept hurt your performance.

I'm gonna have to concur, but your setup and car looks absolutely beautiful. I've watched the progress over the years, and you're doing good.

Thanks.

And for the record James, you didnt use a Venom Intake so how do you know it did nothing? Actually, when I put it on, I did feel more top end power. For the fuel rail, I got it becuz it was free and I could bore it out more than the stocker....

if you bored the OBX out to 9/16 you have a -6an rail, nothing wrong with it. Not like the alum in one rail is better than another.
