I finally installed the GT35R. I am using Ron Shearer's exhaust headers and O2 housing and the intake piping for the new turbo. He made them all perfectly, welds are perfect, everything fit pretty well. Ron makes great products and I would recommend him to anyone. As for the turbo crap I only got to tune it on pump gas using a wideband on the street and only using an AFC. Im sure the car was knocking some because the car probably tried to advance the crap out of the timing because the AFC was at -38% fuel pretty much across the board. I will need to figure that stuff out later. I would have done more tuning and tuned for race gas but I ran into a few problems which i need to remedy before more beating.

I was supposed to race yesterday but the car needs some work first. Ill make it to the track in 2 weeks or so after I get it back on the road and tuned well for race and pump gas and see how it does.

Anyways, here are some pics.

And if anyone wants to know the parts in the car:
Shearer's Header w/ Tial 44mm wastegate (Externally gated), Shearer's O2 housing, Shearer's Intake pipe, Shearer's Lower intercooler pipe, HKS 272/272 cams, Magnus Sheetmetal Intake Manifold, 3" Downpipe, Test pipe, and catback, Buschur's Front Mount, Buschurs upper intercooler pipe, HKS Super Sequential BOV, 780cc Injectors, S-AFC, GT35R, ACT 2900lb Clutch w/ Street Disc, Aeromotive Fuel Pressure Regulator, Walbro 255lph HP pump, stock block, stock head (Aside from Cams).

Car is laggy compared to stock turbo but as long as you know how to downshift its fine. Not enough power increase on pump gas to make it a good pump gas turbo IMO and definately wont work for autocrossing but its fine for daily driving... probably increases gas mileage because you rarely would hit boost. Car idles REALLY rough with the 780cc injectors and only an AFC to compensate. Im in the process of helping that out. Anyways, Ill let you guys know what it does in the quartermile. The last time the car was at the track it ran a 13.4 @101 stock. Its got a little more than stock so hopefully I can get a trap of 130 or so.

 

looks great.

 

I've been watching SHEARERS stuff...his manifold is awesome...great quality!! Let us know how it runs on the 1/4 & dyno #'s

 

Looks good, now get a EMS or Dynoflash and get that thing tuned for some power.

 

please tell me you are going to get something to tune that car with.

 

I doubt you'll hit a 130 trap, but get a utec or aem to help out.

 

Looks good!!

 

wow... the welds aren't as "robotic" as full race but man... the design is right on... saw his compact mani on robi's car but this is really somethin' else! nice setup... get that aem soon hehe.
