nice! who makes the headers?

[ripnitup]

im ot 100 % sure , i bought them used and had them ceramic coated , i think they are turbo technoligy peices ,

[93mustang4me]

Sweet ride Bro! Can't wait to see you post some time slips, I predict a shoot might be needed after you get her dialed in.

I like the CF valve covers. Who make those?

[ripnitup]

looks like pony down stage 3 headers... but not sure... I'm using a set on my 383 setup...


Nice build

[Eric93Cobra]

Nice build. How do you like the fitment and quality of the UPR K member kit and caster/camber plates? I'm thinking of getting the UPR kit for my turbo lx coupe build.

[ripnitup]

the UPR stuff fits nice , and gives you a ton more room , i had to trim a little to fit my steering rack but it was no big deal,

[RED95GTCOUPE]

Is that the idler pulley that came with the alternator bracket (march?) or did you get another one to fit?

[ToxicByte]

Anymore progress on the project?

[TooFast98Cobra]

If you do not mind me asking how did you mount the top hood pins? bolt them to the hinges? thanks and nice build!

[ripnitup]

it is the bracket that came with the march kit...the top hood pins are mounted on a bracket that was for zues fasteners , not progress, i sold the fast set up and intake and bought a csu blow thru carb and super victor intake,it sux working on a shoe string budget....i had hoped to be done by now, maybe a month or so

[DeviousCoupe]

What are some.details of your oil feed/return setup? Where'd you get the lines at?

[ripnitup]

im feeding it wit #4 and draining it with #10, and i believe its #6 for the water feed and return for the turbos, i ordered the line and an fittings from Jegs and made them myself
the oil lines arent ran in the pictures those are for the water, i used the stainless braided lines for the oil feed and return

"your first turbo project" had me ready to see some seriously hacked up ##### with some ebay hardware..... definitely not your first rodeo though, your setup looks good. got the potential to make serious power. can't wait to see more pics! got a twin project going myself and I'm looking foward to seein what it will do. good job.

[ripnitup]

thanx , as soon as i get the intake and carb on i will get a few more pics, we are starting another twin project on my buddies car and im sure we will inprove some things that we are learning from this one

[blackbob]

Sweet boobies !!!

[ripnitup]

well sold some stuff .....bought some stuff ....now im going blow thru , i got a carb from csu and ive had to remake a few pieces












ive made some more progress over the weekend , and i will have some pics up soon

[botlrokit93]

wow dude!! why the move to go blowthru carb??? U had some capable EFI hardware. (so did I before I switched) I'm sure the guys following your build would interested to hear why you changed. I swapped over when I went from cog driven blower to twin turbo, knowing I could not afford the tuning and fuel system changes.... hell, I got a magnafuel pro 500, reg., and all lines necessary to supply twice what i'll make for less than just the fuel system upgrade necessary to stay EFI... not to mention the damn tune, etc... still using an MSD 7531 to call ignition shots, but relying on trusty screwdriver for fuel chores... welcome to the life of simplicity!

[botlrokit93]

BTW, the black out and carbon look is way cool!!!

[ripnitup]

i didnt understand alot about the efi so i made life simple...lol

[botlrokit93]

well, yeah thats another good reason, lol... how soon is it to startup?? I'm looking foward to seein what it does cause I have a similar combo, but wont be firing it anytime soon.

[ripnitup]

new look for the valve covers



the blue radiator hose isnt not staying on ther

cool process, search it out. sorry, it's "www.ezdipkits.com"

[915.0GT]

love those valve covers even with the carbon fiber style and that carb hat is supper cool too

[COP_STANG]
