Hi All! Herbie needs boost!
Hi guys!
My name is Wouter, 22, from the Netherlands. I have owned my little red '92 for about 1.5 years now, who i named Herbie, because i always used to watch those movies as a kid. He's a 1.6, major mods done by me are: TA Technix coilovers Klutch SL1 8.5J ET17 15's wrapped in 195/50/15 Toyo T1R's GV lip 1.8 open after my 1.6 VLSD exploded My PO has done a full Postert kit (quite well known here in europe) of which i removed the front bumper and flares. I wasn't planning on turboing anytime soon, but a great opportunity came up so i jumped on it. Already this forum has provided me with a lot of great information, and i hope to gather (and perhaps even share) more knowledge! Turbo plans for now will be very simple, as i want to get to know the car at each power level, and do upgrades where neccesary. Parts i have decided on already are: TD04 Custom made manifold and downpipe (my friend is looking into possibly creating turbokits, i will be his testsubject) 1.8 injectors Aftermarket ECU (looking at a DIYPNP) First stage will be stock clutch, so 140-150 HP, just going to baby the clutch a little. When i'm done with the clutch or it's gone (whichever comes first) i will be upgrading the clutch and injectors, and upping the boost. Goal will be 180-ish HP. Alright, i'm done talking, have some pics! Picture from when i bought him: https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...38f935686b.jpg And here it is as today: https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...8f90f204ba.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...227d8ce503.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...b981d13646.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...1407bfb4c2.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...45cc015e1e.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...3bf713caad.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...a29f661459.jpg Do you have any advice or tips for such a low boost build? Thanks in advance! Hoo boy, these pictures are big, any way to resize them or do i have to do that manually? |
