Well I finished it finally!
I did all the welding myself from start to finish. I had a helping hand from a few friends for fitment, install, and some company (thanks Justin, Dan and Chris).
I painted half the charge tubes gunmetal to see if I like it or not... and I do
so I'll probably coat them that color.
I have the pics uploaded into my
AZJBO registry
Tell me what you think!

clean your motor!
Good work though
1989 Turbo Trans Am #82, 2007 Cobalt SS G85
The BOV is built into the turbo actually. I no longer have the RFL, that was when I was non-intercooled.
Yeah MY engine will be cleaned... actually my whole car needs cleaning.

I deleted the pictures of the non-intercooled setup now.. no more confusion.
"Growing old is mandatory. Growing up? Definitely optional."
you can actually post the pics brandon
other than they are large pics
I figured wince they were 1024x768 I would let them link to another page to view them.
It's about 1.7mb worth of pics total

ha I was thinking what the hell is QBE talking about theres no BOV?
also what are you tuning with theres no way your using just a Vortec.
"
Kick azz is my boost hero!!! "
right now only the vortec and saab 9-3t injectors.
I am getting an safc
"Growing old is mandatory. Growing up? Definitely optional."
yea thats all he is runnign right now, w/ the saab injectors....and btw the turbo and manifold are off a saab 9-3..the bov is on the compressor on the actual turbo.
his a/f's were pretty good before the intercooler and now with it they are spiking to the 15's
how much boost and do you have WB. because your AF must be all onver the place.
"

I am running 10-12 psi
I do have a wideband thats how I know the afr.
It is running mid 12's to low 13's afr... it spiked 15.0 once.
When I have the boost turned down to 4-6 psi it runs high 10's to low 11's.
I am thinking I have a fuel pressure problem. I am replacing my fuel filter in about 20 minutes. I need a better fuel pump or at least a booster pump, I just dont know which one to get. What would you suggest?

yes it works great
"Growing old is mandatory. Growing up? Definitely optional."
looks good! it's always sweeter when you and a group of buddies did the work yourselves.
btw, did you still need the regulator adapter. i think i have one or two left. let me know and i can ship it out tomorrow with 97cavie24ls(JDM&00s/c sedans™)'s stuff.
yeah I do, what are you charging for it?
btw Jcavi I was reading you thread with all the MegaSquirt Info.... I think I am going to do it also. The only thing I am confused with is what all I have to buy. I can assemble it no problem, its just buying all the right things to put it all together.
Have you figured that out yet?
email me if you need a partner to team up with for this... as I am in the EXACT position you are for fuel. We need to get a solution haha.

Nice oil lines...they look kinda beat up though
In JCavi's thread someone linked to a list on the megasguirt page on everything you need to get it running. Basically, since we're already FI, just buy the basic v3.0 kit from diyautotune.com along with the tuning cable (unless you already have one laying around, pretty common).

better a delay than a disaster.
thanks! I'll check it out.
