man,..that is a Monster turbo...what model is that in??

 

I wouldn't say that's exactly "Monster" looks no bigger than a 16G.

 

!!!!!!!!!!WHAT!!!!!!!!! 16g i dont own an eclipse much less want to but crap from them on my car. Thats a true T-70 homie I know I wait for it to spool and then spank top end all over baby turbos. 16g sux nuts. The turbo itself has a 4" intake inlet. 3" exhaust exit.

Oh and it is a 1990 volvo wagon, ill have more pics later on ive been way to damn tired to take pics.
But I will tom.

 

I need to try to find pics of the 240 wagon that was built in West Palm beach here in Fla.
It is a 16valve that her had to cut the fender well out to fit the turbo in there.
It was running mid 11's I beleive.

 

Damn man!!!!I agree, That is a huge F'n turbo. Get that off a mack truck? I am so torn on whether I want to put something like that on my car being that it's fwd. If it would even fit without having to come into the firewall. Is it sick how fast she is running now. Is the car manual?

 

Its a t-70 with a 50ar hotside houseing. My car is automatic but it gets this monster going around 3 grand and you start to feel the pull. Its bad how it sounds, like an 18 wheeler. my open exhaust is so load i cant hear my blow off valve when i let off the gas.ill psot up some better pics soon i know these are a little crappy. I was just tired and i wanted to take some pics.

 

thats awesome! are you planning a track or dyno outing?

 

yea im planning on tracking it as soon as i get some decent couplers and things stop popping off on me. Which im actually trying to get away from work to go do that right now as i type. so as soon as i can get that taken care of this weekend ill test its top end and make sure everything holds up. Then ill plan my day to the track. Im hoping for at least 16 maybe 15's to start with. its funny hearing this turbo on the street. last night i was playing with an 18 wheeler spooling back and forth next to each pther. Its fun and i love this set up. let me know what you guys think.

 

Sounds good I think you might hit the 14's if it spools like you say.
How much boost are you running now?

 

10 psi but i keep blowing these lame *** couplers off. But I should be able to grab some tom. I went right now to performance shop and these girls went to lunch at 4:30 in the afternoon. So ill have to go sometime in the morning. 14's would be nice if i can keep it spooling.

 

Which couplers do you keep blowing off?
Which clamps are you running on the hoses?

 

the hot side charge pipes and im running regular clamps. But couplers are cheapies from autozone. When they heat up they feel liek they're jelly. High temp my booty. So im on the hunt for the blue and red couplers that put up with the heat and i can fasten the things down.

 

Oh ok just making sure you have good clamps.

 

the pictures arent working...[&o]

 

yea i know that server went up in flames or something. But dont worry new pics are on the way. some finished product pics and hopefully ill be able to mount the oil cooler up front monday or tuesday. I found out why volvo needs it espeacialy with this turbo. I thinned out the vescocity of 10-50 in just 5 days. So now im up to 20-50 with a bottle of lucas stabalizer. Thats working nicely. But more pics tomorrow its my day off so i actually have time. Some of the pics dp wprk now i just checked but ill have more tom and post them straight up on the board.

 

Some more pics

Looks good!!!

 

so once it is assembled, is this going to be a quarter mile machine??

 

its assembled and running strong. Im just really not pushing it until i can get another coupler. Then ill put her on the highway and open her up to see how we do at top speed. The other day just getting on the highway with 2 psi only one exit ahead was already at 90 so you can only imagine the rest of the top end. Also my oil coolers is going tom. so that should help out nicely. As far as it being just quarter I dont think I really want that. I like the concept of pissing people off on the highway. But if i do hit 12's in the end ill be more than happy. I still have a whole other motor to build and swap in. Oh and i forgot the good part, I wonder when the tranny will explode?? hmmmm
