Menta Addiction Motorsports Thumper turbo kit for msp/p5/protege...

[changedman]

LOL thats true!

 

[jrodhotrod]

Damn Brian, looking good. Nice to see the Thumper in action.... If only I had money to do everything over again like you. ha ha.

 

[Spooled]

Bryan, are you still using the 440 WRX injectors? What duty cycle are they running at when you are leaning out?

 

[Spooled]

Also, did you check the thermostat before you put everything back together? Hopefully it's not damaged. Are the fans coming on enough? Of course, running lean will up the temp a lot.

My God, i know what i am saving up for, i wonder how much it cost to do this yourself. I don't know how to tune but the majority of this is bolt on correct?

 

[MoJoeTCM]

I see that the kit is capable of producing 500 plus hp but how efficient is that FMIC? I would think you would need a larger one to get every ounce of power correct?

The current intercooler will support 500HP.We are a larger intercooler for those wanting more, however ou have to cut the bumper support to make it fit.

more......i can't even fathom more than that on a 4 cly motor. I am not familiar with installing kits....

What do you recommend purchasing along with this kit (Clutch, internals, Exhaust)?

 

[RyanJayG]

clutch, internals, exhaust, EMS (the AEM is the best ), and possibly new coils and CDI box depending on how much power you really want.

ofcourse incidentals like gaskets and bearings need to be replaced when rebuilding as well.

 

[daedalus]

this thing running yet??? WE WANT SOME UPDATES!!! Oooo and how bout a vid of this moster?!

 

[MoJoeTCM]

gosh i want to see this car running so bad! I wonder if it can hang with a modified 300 zx TT, or even a supra....

 

[spicynamja]

You are a bad person. Evil. You are probably going to be the fastest MSP on the board... if you can keep your tires from spinning all the way through 3rd!

 

[Mental Addiction]

Bryan has the car running.He had a timing belt jump a few teeth and since then has fixed the problem.Bryan and Jamie(Tekkie) have been working on it for the past few days getting it ready for some serious power pulls. Big thanks to Jamie for helping.Right now they are working on getting the Haltech reinstalled.

 

[Mr. Win]

very nice... did he have to basicly make a new map? Just curious how that worked out.

 

[Bhamsan]

Oh man, I want one now! I wonder if my girlfriend would let me buy it?

Side Note: I knew a guy who drove a 93.5 TT Supra whose girlfriend bought him a new turbo for their anniversary, which costs about $5k. Now I'm thinking, he'd better get her a huge rock when he proposes.

 

[changedman]

damn, must be a MASSSSSSSIVE turbo!

 

[Bhamsan]

He's putting down about 600whp on pump 91 octane gas. It's pretty damn big, but has some serious lag.

 

[azian6er]

car is running!!

i will be tuning it up here this week witht he haltech and good things to come. Vids too lol...

i will post new pics very soon.

Probably a GReddy T78 or T88(H) upgrade kit for the price and power you decribed..



sorry..

Car looks tits! (rockon)

 

[Bhamsan]

No, it wasn't a GReddy. I totally forgot what turbo it was, because I really haven't talked to this guy in about 3 years.
