that is a nice setup. You have pics of rest of car. Hopefully it hasnt been ruined by cheap pepboy apc parts and stuff. Oh yea do you know of specs. Does it have upgraded internals?
What's that black box infront on the intercooler where the battery usually is???
how much did it run you?
where's your BOV?
and what's that blue rail behind the intake/charge pipe??
thanx man and congrats

She is pushing 219whp at 8spi with more tunning to go...
-Yes that is the Turbo Performance header... But I ceramic coated it...
-The blue rail is for the the 2 extra injectors... That rail is made by Vortech and is used on many of their supercharged applications...
-The BOV was out facing down to the throttle body....
I went to the dyno (Clayton) and the Dyno read between 212 whp and 219 whp at 6300 rpms. I don't like giving away everything that is on my car (For safety purposes) but i'll give you the just of it... There are two key points that makes my set up different then most other turbocharged applications is I have a liquid to air intercooler and a Jackson racing water injection kit. For those whom disbelieve please read on...
-Liquid to air intercooler: we relocated my battery to the trunk to replace it by a 1 gallon Fuel cell. The fuel cell is to be filled with Water or Ice water on race day. Pumping the ice water through the intercooler is a Pony 12V water pump at 300 gallons per hour (From Princess Auto). So basically The water goes through the intercooler (Much like a Radiator) Thus frezzy the intake charge dramatically. Frezzing the incoming air gives you the ability to retain more oxygen in that air mass. More oxigen in the air creates stronger detonation thus more power...
Here's some pics: (No she's not riced out... she's a sleeper... Thus my choice of a liqiud to air intercooler)
