msp build parts (preview!!....:)

[sandspeed]

WoW... mean ass stance and clean looks... nobody is going to mess with you lol.

I really dig the way you are taking things to the next level. Unique parts and good tasteful mods is really setting this leaps apart from any other. Keep up the inspiration bro. I know if it makes me want to get back to work on my car, it must have an effect on others too.

My opinion about the wastegate: O P E N Dump for sure!!! The sound is like no other and its not like you will be driving around with no muffler. I get not wanting to be noticed, but when you mash the throttle... you wont be noticed anyway because you will be too far away. I love the way it sounds, such a mean growl. The higher you go with the boost, the less you will hear it anyway.

Thanks brian! It's pretty loud compared to normals cars so I gaurentee it sounds badass though..lol
Thanks for the kind words dude. Costemitcally, I want an excelerated reverse composite cf front hood some day and I eventually need to fix and repaint my front bumper. Plus, I intend to get my jdp lip to fit flush to my bumper with custom trimmimg.
I do too love the wastegate exhaust sound in boost but one day I might route it back in to the downpipe. its not set in stone yet. I might even try out an exhaust cutout and then put a high flow vibrant cat behind it.

[sandspeed]

Sand speed what kind of exhaust, sorry for the threadjack.

I have a 3"downpipe vband, that goes down to a flex section, then to my ultra quiet resonator, and finalily the brand new JIC magic (120mm) muffler. Oh ya, the wastegate piping is 2" dumped...haha sounds wicked man.
Full 3" turboback ftw. I gotta get some drive by good videos soon..lol
Thanks for the questions and support, i'm always happy to answer questions about my build.

The turbo is a holset hy35 which is comparable in flow as a gt3582r (what I have been told). And yes my motor is a fully built bottom end with carillo h beam rods, wiseco. 5mm overbore with stock c/r and a thick cometic hg which will lower my c/r to about 8.8 to 1. I also am just running a ported 626 mani till I save up enough to fully build the head and do a steedspeed or 505 (if I can find one) intake manifold

Daaamn, thats a helluva of a turbo!! Is it dual ball bearing turbo. Dude, you've got to get a 505 intake or steedspeed mani, believe me its really worth the money and it looks great too ...lol. We gotta snap pics of the whips when we meet up..

I know man the rear setup on the car is going to be insane. Im putting my hankooks P215/45 on my miata wheels that i finally finished painting this week. They will be perfect since the wheels are 17x7 and my enkei's are 8 inches wide. Going to wrap the enkei PF01's with dunlop star specs P235/40's for the track...haha going to be a beefy tire. Thanks for making badass link brotha, I'm gonna take a bunch of pics

The turbo is a 360 thrust bearing turbo. Right now im in the break in part of my build so no numbers yet. Im hoping to be around 300whp on ~20psi. My car nowhere near the camera ready shots that yours is. Lol. But im down to chill once I get everything worked out

Nice man, I used to a thrust bearing precision SC61, it was laggy as s*** but hit hard in full boost. I want to eventually sell my garrett and buy a billet precision dual ball bearing. In due time... :>
Get you're cylinder head PnP, valve job and you'll wake that turbo up more quickly. Just fyi. And ya, i'm totally down to chill when you have time.

"It's just a lowered protege with rims, thats all....well, with a couple toys.(evil)

 

[sandspeed]

Well, I lost my power steering belt drivinh home last night...haha, freaked me out when it happened but upon further inspection I need to replace the PS pump.
Anyone have a PS pump they want to sell me?? My pulley literally wobbles side to side, probably because of all my torques" lol.

Wtb PS pump with pulley asap!!

OMP, wants somewhere between $150-$180 for a new one minus shipping.

 

[shane02pro5]

Man I sold one a while back for like $35 after realizing that wasn't my problem. Picked it up from car-part.com for under $50

 

[sandspeed]

Nice shane, thanks for the link.

 

[Signature Sound]

Crazy, I just noticed the problem with mine recently. My belt was coming off so after loosening to put it back on I noticed all kinds of shaft play.

 

[shane02pro5]

Salvage yards guarantee good parts... and much better than $150.

 

[sandspeed]

Found a legit PS pump w/pulley at a local salvage yard for $70. Yay.
Orderd two things from cxracing.
Universal air to air oil cooler kit. $80
T3/T4 turbine heat blanket $89

$239 total, however, I already own every braided line and AN fitting to hook up my oil cooler and external remote oil filter.

I'm going to set up the oil cooler in a real trick location with for maximum direct flow. Going to do some fun bondo work to make it look stockish ;/

[95blkprobe]

[sandspeed]

Oil cooler - check
Turbine blanket - check
Flexalite 12" fans - check

BOOM I'm ready for who wants some.
