Jeller: The circled area which you´ve labeled, "Turbo wastegate actuator", is incorrect. That´s actually the boost control solenoid. Otherwise Good!

 

yeah i knew what was meant by the pic. someone messed up though. haha.

 

heres a few pics of what little ive done so far waitin on the turbo to arrive.






gonna pop this on once the turbo arrives.

 

i now have to buy a radiator as well b/c i accidently punched a hole in mine today. just gonna go ahead and replace with an aftermarket i suppose.

 

Looks like you've been keeping busy, LOL! I have the KOYORAD and it's nice, however, if I had it to do over I'd get the ultra-lightweight and thin CBRD radiator.

EDIT: I am kinda tempted to make an offhand remark about the blue sleeves on the hoses in the pics. But, I won't. Good Luck!

 

how much does that rad. cost?? ive heard a lot of good things about the cbrd one

 

Call Chad, I don't know otherwise I'd tell you, buddy! I got the Koyo for a little over three bills from "500 WHP"(nice guy to deal with). I love my KOYO as it is way thick and holds more coolant. It has beautiful welds and is polished aluminum.

The KOYO's extra thickness is cool, unless you plan to go to a larger turbo kit in the future. Chad's radiator on the other hand has the relocated inlet allowing for the straight shot coolant hose, in addition to the light weight, thin core, and it is an ultra efficient NASCAR design. It'll clear a 35R as well.

I have a feeling that the CBRD unit is over four bills though.

EDIT: I had to do some very slight grinding on the stock fan shroud to get it to clear the Green's compressor housing though with the KOYO.

 

im probably gonna throw in a slimline fan so that shouldnt be a problem for me. i wanna find out how much the cbrd rad is though. i heard theyre nice as hell.

 

decided to go with the jun cams. i should be ordering them any day now.

 

Yeah, I stole that pic from the mbc install thread, I didnt feel like typing it out or going out to take a pic. Sorry I didnt make the pic, but glad it worked for ya.

Im a bit late on this but I am running the Green on my car with HKS 272/272 with all supporting mods + meth and I made 405hp/385tq. As you have heard from everyone else, you will not touch anywhere close to 550+ tq with this turbo. I am currently doing a motor build with a 2.3L and I doubt I will hit 500tq. Good luck with everything. Im interested to see how the JUN cams treat you as I will be running the same cams on mine.

 

yea i placed an order today and the its gonna take 2-3 weeks for them to arrive.

 

woohoo my green just arrived and wow what a piece of art. i got the compressor housing polished as well and man it looks awesome. im gonna post up some pics later today. im glad i took the day off of work. couldnt have picked a better day. haha. im bout to go out and get started on it shortly. cant wait to get the ride back together.

 

Glad to see you got it I had my compressor cover polished aswell. It really does look great. Cant wait to see the pics

 

hey guys heres some pics of the new beast that came in today. cant wait to get it back on the streets to terrorize some v8's. haha. beautiful comp. housing isnt it.
