Now that my VW is up and running, I'm going to try and finish my build before selling everything...again.

1990, 133k-ish, decent compression numbers. Looking for low 200s on this motor before mildly building the extra longnose 1.6 sitting at home w/ the forged rods also sitting at home :(

Parts Collected:
-Greddy Manifold w/ relief cuts
-Rebuilt TD04h-15G w/ upgraded feed line and drain to pan oil drain adapter (still in bag)
-Tiny custom intercooler (10x11x3 core) setup w/ TurboXS RFL BOV, (T-bolts ftw)
-Custom Mandrel 2.5" Exhaust and 2.5" straight pipe
-550cc RX-7 Injectors and extra rail for Dual Feed
-Misc. parts for COP conversion
-Braineak PnP MS running in parallel w/ high res code
-AEM wideband
-ACT XT clutch kit and Jun Flywheel
-Torsen Type I


Need:
-Downpipe: ordering tonyturbo with next worthy paycheck
-Boost Gauge
-Random couplers, pipe, etc
-Air Filter
-Injectors cleaned
-Dyno time and tuning
-Oil drain line, tap, etc.

Hoping late August early September up and running.

Pics is a must this time around.

I need a few more things and I should be good to go with an install day.

Picked up a brand new racing mazda downpipe from a guy who bought it a few years ago and never got around to installing it for cheap
received my turbo
picked up an autometer boost gauge
got my 550cc back from cleaning and flow testing
a bowser (?) heatshield
intake piece and filter


Now...just need to tap the oil pan and install MS...and pick up a few random pieces.

waiting for some cash so I can get my oil return fittings/line and the bit/tap.


My AEM piece is back ordered until the 12th...I want that ****. I am ready to get this piece of crap boosted.

Just wondering what kind of money you have into this so far? A price break down would be cool to see.

I have a bit and tap I purchased with my BEGI-S. I hope to get to tapping my pan soon, maybe even today. As soon as I am done with it, you are welcome to borrow both - with the caveat that you swear to pass it on to the next guy who is boosting on a budget.

I got my *** kicked by the rusted bolts on the CAT. I couldn't find my torch to heat the bolts, and ended up stripping them both.

So, no tapping the oil pan today.

I'll throw all my notes into a spreadsheet in the next couple of days...I'd say 6k total all said and done?

miatamania

iTrader: (9)

Let me know man...I can use them and mail them back to you, or just post the in the F/S section when I'm done as...who needs them just pay shipping.


I got my part from AEM yesterday....all I need is my drain line and a pan fitting.

I had to cut my cat off a few years ago...**** sucked.

No cat ftw

jbresee

Will do. I just need a couple hours and I'm done with them. You can pass them on to the next guy for me.
