02 Lancer ES Turbo Project
good job man...comin out really nice...
IMO i think you should relocate the battery to the trunk and use an Evo intake so your filter sits behind your headlight instead of the back where the air is more warm...you can get a battery box from wal-mart and a pair of jumper cables if you wanna take the cheap/affordable route...but either way godo job though
MAY THE BOOST BE WITH YOU!!!

I thought you had the tactrix cable steven?? thats likely why I cant open your rom , do you know what there using as far as a flashing cable at the shop?
I agree or get the evo battery tray , all you need is to drill one hole in it and bolt it down, that'll leave you open for an evo intake setup and you'll be much happier , it fits perfect and bolts down in the 2 bolts over the trans mount and one on top...

ok guys im at the shop again I didnt have to work till 3 it took me two hours to hook everything back up again so I will see how she runs with me tightening everything down so I will be starting the car as soon as they hurry up and flash my car with 03lances rom,
I just got back from the shop today was no fun its like im not suppose to drive a turbo car!!! well I started the car looked under and yeah the car was idling pretty rough... but anyways I found the oil leak I tighten both return lines from the oil pan and the turbo, so I started the car again and it was still leaking im sitting here like wtf...I thought it was coming from the turbo sides where it stores the oil, well I found out where it came from the oil feed line!!! I didnt tighten it enough so I had to take everything back off and drain the fluids once more, I got the banjo nut tighten down better this time, and all I had time for was to install the turbo to the mani again, and connect the oil feed line so im going to have to go thursday back to the shop and finish the car and pray that no more problems occur. so thursday everybody is when this turbo build will be complete!!!
Which one, his 5psi or 10 psi map? I actually like his 10 better, it looks cleaner and more well tested. I'm betting that each time you tune again....the map fits the car more, as that probably comes with experience.
Still having oil leaks mainly the oil feed its leaking pretty bad I'm using the ebay oil sandwhich adapter that can with line for the 12 mm banjo nut and I'm still using the stock banjo,nut as well can someone tell me a better way to do it maybe?
Something there is not sitting flush if its leaking. Mine has been dry from day one. Can you tell if its leaking from the banjo bolt or from feed line where it connects to the banjo fitting?
I think if you follow what 03 is asking, about the braided like connecting to the banjo leaking or if it's where the banjo bolts on to the turbo, the next step is "why".
The banjo uses crush washers, did you re-use those? does anyone know if they can/should be reused or replaced? I'd say swap those out with the ones from the ebay banjo fitting. Also, can you tell if it's the banjo bolt leaking or the crush washers, like ...where exactly (insert pic here?)
It goes like this though:
Banjo bolt starts here.........|======|
then washer........................-----------
then the banjo fitting..........(======)-------------->
then washer........................-----------
then the turbo....................______________
Which spot does it actually leak from?

ya.. try new washers.. more then likly u will need to run by an OIL CHANGE place and see if they will give u 2 copper crush washers.. i never had any luck at any local parts strore for copper cursh washers.. they are 1 USE ONLY.. once u tighten down, thats it! leave them tight and never remove without replacing.
it kind of looks like from the bottom I cant rally tell because the manifold is in the way, but the oil kind of leaks and drips down the the right side of the turbo if your looking at the engine, I will buy new crush washers and see if that does the trick hopefully it does I got till friday to get this car done before I leave
