The Project Pad

sexy stuff for sure! can't wait for vids. woo wooo

Nice! Those Iroz EM's are a work of art. They flow great too.

Making "headway"

Nice! Getting right at it, I like your style. Running by Monday? lol.

You will love that turbo. If you thought it was fast before, you're in for a treat. What fuel pressure regulator are you using, an AAN one? You'll need that slight bump in fuel pressure for all the fuel you can get. I was at 86% DC with a 4bar 7a and the 60lb Siemens. Oh, and are you using a bigger fuel pump? 044?

I have a new 4 bar FRP. I also got those 60lb Siemens. From what I have read the stock Bosch fuel pump will work well beyond my needs so I am just putting a new one in as well as a filter.

I have a question for you: How do you know which connections on the GTX housing are the oil supply/return and coolant supply/return? I need to get this thing oriented right and can't even figure out what hole in the turbo goes to what.

Oil inlet is the smallest and should have a restrictor fitting, oil drain is largest and needs a flange, use -10 hose at least.

Is this the oil inlet? What is that little piece on the inside? It's not a built in restricted is it?
This is the smallest hole on the turbo

And then the opposite side would be the drain. It has provisions for a little flange

Like this

Yes, that's the inlet and drain. You need fittings like these

Hell yeah, looks and sounds great. As I said on the other forum, post up a log if you'd like any help tuning. Now we need some vids of full throttle!!

It is going to be a while before I get those logs posted but will do.

Subframe bushings and tranny/diff mounts ala HERSH performance. Subframe bushing were a dream to install. 2 piece setup, awesome.

Installed a rear sway bar and replaced everything that can be replaced under the car.

Installing my coil overs tomorrow then I'll report how awesome this thing drives.

THUGLIFE

Nice. Sometimes having a long cold winter can have it's benefits. My 4k was so ridiculously responsive with all the solid stuff and coilovers. Every little input yielded an output. You'll love it.
