Thats right folks I finally got something to match my Carbon Fiber turbo hood vent. A TURBO!!! Just this last weekend I picked up my car from RRM and received my car back but now it had been given a pretty non-intercooled turbo. Got my new K-bar, valve cover painted, magnacore wires, and ofcourse the turbo. I love my car sooo much now and believe me you definately get your money worth. I have left so many people in the dust already. Now I just think of all of the things that I should save my money up for to get more speed out of my car. Next two things will probably be the Intake Manifold and Throttle Body from RRM. Thanks to Rob, Boe, and Andrew for putting my car together and helping me out with everything. You guys are great.

where does the filter sit once the turbo is placed in the car

 

are those tubular bends i see in the piping??? i wonder why not mandrel bent...kinda sucks..

but nice non the less!

 

Runs great and the external waste gate sounds great!!!

 

you lucky sob.

if only ican find a few grand lying around....hehehe

 

is it a bolt on? its been a while since ive been on this site so i forget thanks

 

and how come the prices have shot up in the past month? non-intercooled was around 3k less than 6 months ago if i remember correctly (i still have to give props to rrm) i just want to know why prices have gone up

 

If you look on the bottom of the last pic you can see a pipe going down. Mine uses a cold air intake so it is positioned the same as a an injen or aem intake.

The prices have gone up a little because the price on all of the items have gone up and also this turbo is going to be carb legal within a month or so so you can pass smog with it.

 

so rrm's turbo isnt mandrel bent???????????????????????

 

<----- very jealous

is your car auto? coz i was wondering why you got the non-intercooled. but anyway, since u dont have a FMIC, how much psi are you running and are you overheating? you dont know much i want that turbo.. :P good job

 

No I drive a 5 spd manual. It's the extra thousand that made me decide between non-intercooled and intercooled. Rob convinced me that I can always upgrade whenever I feel like it and its not hard to upgrade to intercooled.
I am currently running 6 psi.
Not overheating at all.
Hopefully soon I will get the intake manifold, TB, and the reflashed ecu and when I do that I will probably bump it up to 7 psi. I will probably get the items in that order too.
