As some of you know i am betwene turbos and im having a hard time finding a replacement for this setup. the car had a wacky volvo style 5 bolt and i cannot find those turbos anywhere. within a week i will be ordering a new volvo style turbo and having it rebuilt or i will be switching everything to standard T3.

Heres the car with a generic T3 that i got online. The downpipe doesnt line up properly. so im betwene finding the same kind of turbo the setup was built for or ill replace the turbo and the DP. Ill also have to dump the ewg to atmosphere.


the final build pics are on the last page

You need to get a lip kit and take the white thing off your window

Vr-4-Life 12-28-2008 11:40 PM

the following are on the way atm. getting this car turboed again has become kind of a priority now. thank god i have 3 paychecks in jan lol. doing this while doing a neer 3 thousand dollar front end conversion on the vr4 sucks.. oh well..

DPancoast 12-31-2008 12:49 PM

nice, I always wondered about turbo Del Sols.....

looks good to me

Vr-4-Life 12-31-2008 12:52 PM

heh it was fast.. they have traction problems tho if your not used to driving it

Vr-4-Life 01-01-2009 03:18 PM

I decided to take an unusual route with my dump tube. since my ewg is mounted in a retarded place i figured this would be easer then trying to get custom piping.

I can weld the one end to the DP or just let it hang and VTA

DPancoast 01-01-2009 04:39 PM

that looks like it'll work pretty good.

Vr-4-Life 01-01-2009 04:46 PM

i figured its better then getting crap welded every time i change something. this is flexable and i can just let it hang.... giggidy lol

What is an E-Wastegate?

Teku18 01-04-2009 04:34 PM

Vr-4-Life 01-08-2009 12:46 PM

well my downpipe came yesterday and once i have the new dump tube ill try to set some time to turbo the car again. Hopefully i can get it going open downpipe till i get to a exhaust shop

Vr-4-Life 01-09-2009 11:52 AM

dump tubes here.. i need to find a warm garage to do all this!

OMGz Turbo 01-09-2009 01:17 PM

Why dont we use the new garage with a kerosene heater?

Vr-4-Life 01-09-2009 05:30 PM

I dont have one of those heaters... if anyone wants to throw me one for free im all for it :)

Check out this sexy lil beast.... I couldnt put a no name turbo on my car. and i figured i might as well go all out. I looked at some precisions from extreme psi. however i got a sweet deal on this puppy from turbochargers.com
