My turbo setup (Bottom mount t25)
I guess Ill go ahead and start my turbo build thread. Im planning on running a gt2554r to start off with and upgrade to a gt2560 later. My car is a 1.6 with everything upgraded but boost. Torsen, 6puck, coilovers, cage....
I decided to go with a bottom mount manifold for my setup. Having no ac or ps makes things easier :giggle: Everything was made by ARTech formally called Sprayed on the forum. Thanks again for the great work! http://i27.tinypic.com/2mr8i91.jpg http://i28.tinypic.com/2ih0b9d.jpg http://i32.tinypic.com/vfikug.jpg http://i28.tinypic.com/2lar5w4.jpg http://i28.tinypic.com/2vws5z6.jpg Heres some pics of my downpipe back exhaust. http://i30.tinypic.com/o02r9d.jpg http://i31.tinypic.com/33be3qp.jpg |
Umm nice build but you still have an AC compressor hanging on your motor... If your AC doesnt work. Dump that Junk, Time to go light weight...
{unless those pictures are not from your car} Anyhow , it all looks well fabbed and nice and low for that strait shot exit. Goodluck |
im liking that downpipe and exhaust for sure
|
that not my car, just the car it was fabbed on.
|
want to say thats nice work and seen it in person
|
sick downpipe
|
next up will be redoing the lower radiator line. Ill be using a modified lower water outlet. Remember the ac and ps junk wont be on finished setup.

very nice. Its about time isnt it lol?

I have no idea why I haven't flipped my welded mixing manifold and ran a flex pipe to the radiator. I'd be able to ditch that heavy connecting pipe, and the two bolts it's held on with! Anybody know the part number or make/model/year for a hose that'll fit from a flipped MM to the radiator? If you'd like to get rid of that steel pipe, I pulled it out with vise grips, and drilled and tapped the hole for 1/8" NPT. You can put a plug in it, than a hose barb for turbo water return in the future.
Edit: NM, you already have a water cooled turbo. Could still drill and tap for an AN fitting opposed to the standard slip-joint-with-hose-clamp method. |
Looks good bro..
I like the DP and the Wg dump :) |
Sprayed is such a good fabricator don't you agree? I absolutly love my manifold by him!!!! holding up strong still!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Sweet! Give me a holla if you need help/when you get it running.

Very nice! Sprayed is a better welder than me. Looks pretty. How much did he charge you for the manifold?
|
Thanks for the compliments guys.
Tim, I wouldn't say that. Your work is very nice, too. I'm in North Dallas. The manifold and downpipe were each $250. He got a great deal on the down pipe, because I had extra piping laying around. The next SSDP won't be as cheap. There's a lot of time and materials that go into one.

Do you have a rad hose that fits the new water inlet neck? I'll need the hose so I can drive my car home from your shop/house.

Suddenly turbo miata fab quality is exploding on the scene. We're about to take-over the racetracks around america.
