After a year eco swapped and turboed 90% done
Friday, May 12, 2006 3:08 PM
well its been a year since i started this project and i have pieced it all together piece by peice w/ much help from Dan and Rob and many trips to the junkyard.


Johnny race car intercooler fits just nicely compared to the old one



Its polished but its just really dirty, 03 rail w saab injectors, and saab intake manifold

Saab td04 turbo and downpipe from brandoson....just waitin on the chargepipes brandon





Some toys i have yet to install


^^^^^ Tein basics and rear disc conversion thanks to gary voyles instructions

Looks good man.. Damn you found that intake mani at the yard? or no..?
What car did those rear disk come off of?
What kind of HP numbers are you expecting?..

I have always been a fan of your Fire...

Are you worried bout that intercooler being blocked by the bumper?

WHITECAVY: i lucked out and got the whole setup from a blown saab motor @ work. only paid the core charge of 500 for everything....the rear discs are off of a 93-97 camaro SS...in expectin 250 or so but ya never know brandoson dynoed 200 hp and 270trq @ 8psi w/ the gm reflash and i plan on running 12-15psi w/ hptuners. Plus whatever gain the saab intake manifold provides and some other little things from the build book

- the throttle body elbow is a saab part# 12786816........its about 35 bucks

yea it took about 2hours with a buffer wheel and an "abrasive wax" to get it that good. SO who knows how long it will last


im not worried about the intercooler.....its not as blocked as it look and its got an auxuillary fan too

well blame it on baer.........but anyways its suppose to have a torque affect......by braking on the outer edge its suppose to be more effecient.

but anyways they are off a camaro...so fatory engineered that way
