Piro's Evo MR blow out and built - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

Piro · 08-06-2008, 11:05 PM

Hey, every one. Got back from my vacation. so I decided to take a drive.
I was having to much fun that I was't looking at the boost gauge hitting over 30psi, sudenly BOOM!
Turbo blew! you can see the oil spot left by the turbo. Well since I'm at it, I decided to upgrade some components. Like: cams, cam gears, fuel rail, injectors, head bolts, head gasket, and a new turbo kit, so here is how the car engine bay looks now.(see attached)

So I gave a call to HPF and ordered a few things.
Here is a partial list:
ATP stage 5 GT35R DBB turbo kit .63 trim
HKS 270 in and out
Cosworth head gasket
arp bolts
greedy time belt
880 cc injectiors
ams fuel regulator
Perring fuel rail
and more

lol wow 30psi?! how much do you normally run? Your on a stock motor right? Well, I guess its a good reason to upgrade!

Eclipse GSX 61 · 08-07-2008, 12:01 PM

Haha that is a bitch when your boost spikes isn't it.

Evo8kid · 08-07-2008, 12:07 PM

Piro! I havent seen you in a while. This thing is gona be nasty when its finished

redline · 08-07-2008, 12:08 PM

Is it a T4 ATP or stock manifold turbo.

alwaysinboost · 08-07-2008, 12:13 PM

sucks about your turbo blowing and all but you should really stay away from ATP, especially if its their kit thats used with the stock manifold. go with a proven kit like from Buschur, ETS, AMS... there are so many better options out there then ATP.

Or have a shop convert the hotside to a T4, then make the power the GT35R was meant too. Good luck with it and lets see some pics!

Also how did you hit 30psi, did you find the problem?

Piro · 08-08-2008, 01:16 AM

I just wanted to keep the stock look, and also was less money, got some more parts in today, here are the injectors and the cam gears, love the looks!http://www.tristatetuners.com/forum/...1&d=1218172736

I espect more parts soon, cant wait to get it done.

I was runing about 21 to 23 psi with meth injecting like a bad alcoholic!

I was out of the country for my vacation and then to Disney for another week.

I guess I was looking for an excuse to do this, you know wifes!

redline · 08-08-2008, 10:29 AM

Trust me sell it or convert it to a T4, the spool will be ungodly slow and making 400 on pump is the norm. Some FP green cars put down more power than the ATP kit with the same gas. Trust me, look into it.

Vypurr · 08-08-2008, 10:38 AM

I knew this would happen sooner or later. Havn't seen you forever!

Piro · 08-16-2008, 08:25 PM

Well the head is out and looks that they are in good shape. Men was that hard!!! I'm not doing this again EVER!!

I'm to old for this S^%$!!!

Good stuff but the 4G is easy to work on! Did you work out that turbo yet? you'd be better of with a red if you want to stay stock mani, trust me! We'll see though.

Piro · 08-17-2008, 12:02 PM

Piro · 08-18-2008, 09:56 PM

Spend a day saturday going over all the connections found a lose ground but no luck, I'm not getting any spark, talked with my mechanic, he told me it could be a separated wire from the harnest, that we will have to take all the tape and conduets of and look for it, also told me if visually can't find it will have to do testing until the wire is found.
