if anything you can tell them you want plugs for your car that are 1 or 2 heat ranges colder than stock. They should be able to get you the right ones or they shouldnt be working the counter lol

 

ok because the autozone down the street those people are idiots, thats why I prefer if someone can just put a site up on where to get them at I can just buy them from that site, I know the autozone will screw me over

 

You just go in there and tell them you want four NGK BKR7E spark plugs. I believe the NGK part # is 4644. Pretty simple, even for someone at Autozone.

 

ya but also around here in madison wi the guys at autozone done know what an o2 bung is either.....

 

o and forgot to mention that the exact stock plug just 2 heat ranges colder (our cars stock are a bkr5e-11) is a bkr7e-11 stock number 5791.

So now its time to figure out when im going to do my install, the main thing im worried about is getting my exhaust all connected.

 

The -11 is pre-gapped to .044".The other is standard gap (.032" ish).You will probably want to tighten the gap up so I would go with the BKR7E like I said since you'll need to be gapped at .30-.28 give or take depending on your tune

as for using synthetic do it and dont switch back to conventional , the engine has been run on it already ...think about how the oil flows through the turbo bearings...you dont want some crap sticking a hole closed you think the big name import race guys run on non synthetic ? most use stuff like redline/royal purple/motul etc.

 

what about exhaust???

 

if your speaking on steve's kit he is using a stock evo 8 downpipe with an extension mated to a lancer magnaflow cat back if Im not mistaken....His car will be sick when its done

 

Thanks man!!!
Well what happened was I never knew we could turbo our cars, so i got my exhaust done for like 230, he wanted to keep both cats on and I said no take that bottom cat off, so what he did was cut it off and welded a straight pipe all the way through to the exhaust. Then he got a magnaflow muffler and welded it to the end of the pipe to complete the exhaust. Now since I did that my downpipe is going to be a little to long to bolt up to the bracket so i have to get my exhaust cut down a bit and weld a flange that will mate up to my test pipe and then to my down pipe here is a quick pic to describe what I mean

 

OK so I decided to take a few pics of the parts I have so here ya go

Evo 8 Test pipe so sick!!!


Beautiful Turbo manifold, Thanks Speed Corps worth every penny!!!


more pics of te manifold


Had to thread my egt gauge in the second runner to read the engine temps, Took me about 15 mins


Runners on manifold


My 16G turbo, Manifold, 440 cc injectors, and lower intercooler pipe


test pipe, manifold, and injectors, and bov tee


Mobil 1 oil filter, 2 down pipe bolts and screws, oil sandwhich adapter, oil return barb, and evo 8 intake tube... Oh dont forget the evo 9 bov!!!


turbo couplers, evo 9 bov, and ams boost controller


And the whole kit itself!!! oh and forgot to mention, 10-30w conventional oil "I think im going to stick with the conventional just to be safe" On the left coolant lines, and bov line to vacumn hose, and the spark plugs bk7re 4644 heat range 7

If your trying to piece together a kit it is well worth the wait and alot cheaper

 

^^^ Beautiful......simply gorgeous!

 

Nice work man all your hard work is about to pay off

 

thanks yall, well I did a few price quotes on my exhaust work, and im getting estimates from $50-80, I just figured that since I just need part of the exhaust cut and and a flange welded back on I should be going to turbo pretty soon. cant keep any promises but I might do it next week, I still got a a spoiler and a fuel pump to pay for so I will just have to wait and see. I would like to start next week but money is tight right now.

 

get that thing done so we can tune it!!!!!!
