HiBoost Turbo install Part II

[duMb KeoLa]

how long did you wait to start bo0stin your turbo?

 

[Pirana]

You mean how long did I waited to put the pedal to the metal? I havent do it yet. Just enough to get the 6-7psi. Probably will full test run this coming weekend.

Gimme a call when you do.

wow man...sounds good...i can't wait for some 'real' people to start the r n d of a hiboost kit....it can't be perfect...theres gotta be a flaw somwhere...it just all seems to good to be true...and I have faith that if levels of boost, and the fuel is there, that spool and Fm would have already known this....even when I had my car tuned...I was running fairly high fuel pressure...and I had two extra injectors to help alleviate the fuel needs

YEAH POST NUMBER 1000!!! so am I a usefull member of the board...or are my posts a waste?

you dont really have to break in a turbo, you do have to prime the motor before starting it...

you should not boost until the car is warmed though, or you MAF is cold and will "bog".

hey pirana, you get on it yet!?

This weekend.

Eliminate all possiblilities of Murphy's law happening and biting you. Besides, any mechanical contraption with moving and/or rotating parts at high speeds should have a breakin period.

dammit come to the ricer meeting place friday

 

[Pirana]

I will try, since the P5 will be clean for the saturday show.

 

[Stealth5]

what time

 

[Pirana]

The show or Cici's. The show is saturday at 10:00am and if I go to Cici's, around 9:30pm

 

[Pirana]

Now which filter looks better....the K&N or the Greddy

 

[Little Beavis]

I'm a K&N guy but I'd have to go with the greddy because it matches better. (You need a new red coupler for the MAF as well.) And. . .oh yeah, that s*** is awesome!

 

[Pirana]

Yeah, there is a shortage of 2.75" couplers at Thermal Flex, they are moving to a new location and have a couple of items in back order. I'am waiting for them to ship it.

 

[LinuxRacr]

Finally go the filter huh?
I came by today, but you were at work. The FIAM horn is in now.

 

[HiBoost TS]

Piraa,

I just have to say, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

That looks awesome. Nice work! It was worth the wait.

Enjoy it. BTW, the red coupler is on the way and you should see it today.

Juan.

Pirana....how hard was it to take apart the IHI turbo? Did you do it yourself? I too want to get mine coated......

BTW...your engine bay looks great!

 

[deckedoutmp5]
