I saw a black one rolling on HW96 westbound and went onto 35W south bound, this was yesterday.

Black
Chrom rims? Silver
Drop
You guys know who this is?

Saw one on the right side of the road of with hazards on. HW 10 a month ago.

Saw a white one turning onto snelling south bound. Right before Rosedale mall. Couple of weeks ago.


When are the MR2's meet? Where? I'm in.

Hey whats up Doau, Hows that turbo working anyway? It was intended to go on my civic, but ended up selling the car and parted all the turbo parts I worked so hard to get. BTW when are you going to Rock Falls? Since school is almost over I'm going to be ready to work my arse off to get that swap done before next semester. Oh I'll be running stock if I go.

#165

Doua, I know I went down to your uncles shop about the 3s swap, but now I am actually thinking about a 5s build for boost. I've been thinking a lot and I'm going to Mankato for Automotive Engineering. Even though engineering is irrelevant to the build, but how much do you think it would cost for the 5s build?

Okay, any help from you turbo guys would greatly be appreciated. I am closing in on 200,000 miles on the 5s now. I know I can always do a 3s swap, but don't want to jump on the 3s bandwagon. Some of you might say just go to the junkyard and get a low mileage 5s, but what about rebuilding the 5s? What parts do I need for the motor to run about 10 psi daily? such as pistons, cams, rods ect. Again any help would greatly be appreciated.

to rebuild a 5s, what are you planning to do??? a 5sfte??? or a hybrid??? 5sfte you will need some parts from the 3s such as 2bar map sensor, oil return lines, the turbo (of course), i think the oil pump(not sure),pistons and rods, and the intake manifold(but you could run the 5s too). I think thats it.

bccentaur3

#168

Yeah the 5sfte. I am really concerned about the high mileage on the motor and I just wanted to know what to replace internally to better suit the turbo. Are you sure all thats needed are pistons and rods?

to boost 10psi..yes..but to be on the safe side -> pistons, rods, cam shaft, cam gears, retainers, valves, valve springs, and get all new seals, gaskets, and rings. That should do the job.

99GT

#170

Do a comp test on your motor. Get new gaskets and seals, basically replace everything rubber. Get it up to par on maintenance. Then your good.

Pressure2 5SFTE GOD!

Running like 270 hp and 310tq IIRC on stock Internals!

3SGTE Exhaust Manifold
3SGTE CT-26 dual
3SGTE Down pipe
3SGTE Oil pan
3SGTE Oil drain line
3SGTE 2Bar MAP Sensor
Then other stuff like fittings and crap...

I've decided to go the 5sfte route because my motor only has 60,000 miles on it.

bccentaur3

#171

Man you're lucky. I'm stuck with a piece of crap 200,000 mile motor. I was thinking about oprdering one of those rebuild kits that come with pistons, seals and all that stuff. The only thing that I am afraid of is that it won't do as well, because its oem stuff. I figured order the kit and get low comp. pistons. I'm not looking for 300 horses, I just want around 240.

#173

Yes, I know i'd probably be sick of a 240 horse power car after a while, but I just want to feel the boost. It's been awhile since I've felt boost. Even having 200 horses will satisfy me as of right now as long as I cam hear the turbo spool up.

definately have to... who's doing your piperwork? i need some piping down and a FMIC as well. i'm probably just gonna order the IC offa ebay and also the pipe kit...but i need it fitted and i can't weld aluminum

99GT

#178

rjbibeau, I'm having Boost Factory to do me my intercooler pipings. $350 for Alumunized Steel for the same exact setup as Pressure2. I showed him some pics and he can do it. Very few silicone couplers and such. I've seen his work and they're pretty good.

I might have him make me all aluminum which will be more.

Stainless steel for my 3" Turboback with 70/120 HKS Carbon Ti. He won't quote on that until he looks at my car.

Very nice and patient guy.

rjbibeau

#179

haha that's funny chuck made me my stainless steel downpipe and my charge pipe in aluminized steel. he does good work his welds are mint. when are you plannign on getting it done? is he making you a custom intercooler with the end tanks as well or are you using ebay style?

99GT

#180

I'm going to have him do it all. I don't stunt ebay! Haha
