ordered my DIY set up!
 

this is going on a 99

ordered these parts, hsould be here early next week

Garrett t3/t04e
27/7/3 FMIC + and all piping needed
BIPES
FM timing circle thingy lol
FM voodoo box
Turbonetics evo wastegate
turbonetics XS BOV
AFPR dont know brand
all couplings and everything needed for install
HKS manifold
I unfortunatly dont have any extra money now so the boost gauge will have to wait until the next pay day lol
I am going with a cyberdyne ice blue digital boost gauge (because it loks sweet haha)


I am trying to make sure I did not forget anything..
I am onily giong to run 6-8 psi.

you do know the HKS manifold is T-25/28 flanged and not T3 right?

other than that it looks like a decent setup

Does a bipes work with a 99 ECU? Or is this an engine swap?

no bipes does not work on 99 ecu, and maybe its not a HKS manifold lol. but its log style with t3 flange, I am getting the down pipe, turbo, manifold and bipes are all from one person.

that's a good lot o' stuff. What's the specs on the t3/t4? Bet you can pick up a cheap boost gauge on ebay... or some other forum classifieds if not here.

well my b-day is in a few months so I called the girlfriend and told her I want an early gift haha. so we are going saturday to get it.

Cyberdyne cool blue digital boost gauge.

(if you havnt seen them they are awesome looking)

I dont know the trim on the turbo, I believe it is 68.


and since the bipes and AFPR wont work for my car, I can sell them.

and luckily for me I like 20 minutes away from summit racing

here is the gauge

that gauge is pretty sweet.

yep- that is nice... but would it be nicer to have more less expensive gauges? ;)

haha well I guess I want what I want - hhe.

I mean im not paying for it lol!

If a woman buys you something you pay for it again and again....

yea that is true, haha. I have already paid for it a few times this month. grr

You need to learn the specs on that turbo, I dont think a 68 trim exists. Depending on the trim you could have a powerful beast or a docile one.

like i said, I was not sure... here is a pic, it is a fairly large turbo.

just because it has large housings does not make it a large turbo. You probably have a stage 1 T3 turbine wheel and thats gonna hold you to around 300whp assuming the compressor will flow that.

I am not trying to get near 300whp lol :) maybe like 190whp will be fine with me!

well it will def make that.:eek5:
