oh baby here we go ... lets see NALM 09 both of you run (Dv8 Vs 95legendgs)?? How about it fella's opcorn:

 

foreva yes there's a few members on this board that have pictures of my engine bay and a video of it running. But those who have it know why I won't revel everything yet. Hopefully they keep their mouths shut till I do.

DandDee your more likely to see me at a tristate meet.

Dv8 I'm currently not running properly telion can attest to it as I've been telling him my issues so far and how he's been wanting to work with it.

But enough OT everyone this is telions thread please lets not drag it off topic.

 

Interesting twist of events in this thread but, here is the thing. When and if you see this when it is done you will see and appreciate the work of art that it is. In addition,yes there are some limitations that I am having to work with yes (short of welding and tuning) I am doing it all. I also find it interesting that everyone talks of Dv8 vs. so and so and how this setup is better than that. But in reality do any of us have any experience regarding this? Has anyone noticed that those that know there stuff or are working with people who do aren't talking down the setup?

If you doubt this build, look at the comments noted on Homemadeturbo.com. Now there opinions hold wait because there's members there with enough experience in this genre to convert a Kirby vacuum into a turbo and run 10's (ok that's a stretch lol). But before get any more Swiftish I will just continue doing what I do and giving you info every step of the way and then when it is all said and done I will just say it is what it is. And whatever that is is still to be determined. Rant done lol. Happy New Year

P.S. HMT thread isn't work safe as I had noobie requirements to fulfill

 

Happy New year. Put up or shut up. This thread is to help Telion with his build. No one can yet claim one setup is better than the other because none are running and proven as of yet. In this community its not who does what first or better, its who gets it done and has results that can help the community.

Telion, things are coming along nicely it seems. Keep up the good work!

 

Ok thanks Dethred and as for everything else this is not the thread for this we're 50 pages in and doing well. I just ask that if you have insight based on experience share if you have an opinion that's cool too, much progress has been made based on that alone. But if your going to criticize please do so constructively and if you wonder what is constructive you may consider popping your own hood look at your engine and then post

 

constructively speaking um.. you guys gonna race when you guys are done or what?

 

People that love Legends(ME) and love kicking the shit out of mustangs, chargers and anything else on the road love this shit. Please just keep working on your builds and show your 1/4 miles and dyno's. People with $$$$ and love are watching. opcorn:

 

Hey my son used to said the exact same thing is like reading his words...:yes:

 

Less talk, more power.

Chriis

 

Keep it up telion I really want to see this project come to fruition so we can all learn more about legends (and you can has seksy turbo!)

 

Still loving this thread...

It's given me a reason to start looking in the "Performance" section again

opcorn:

 

telion, have you built a tranny for this?

 

lol all that and I didn't even answer your question. nope manual tranny, stage III clutch, and a phantom grip should do fine. Not sure there is much we can do to beef up the tranny itself other than replace it with one from a different car and that would be cumbersome.

 

tranny should hold up fine up to 450hp or so if i remmeber correctly that someone said (possibly chris[dv8]?)

 

Thank you guys, sorry the build has been a little slow lately, I am waiting for the piping to get welded before I move forward, and there are no complaints surrounding working around another persons schedule when they are going to great lengths time wise to help out for free, Shout out to my Welder Joe Cool!

And I have a set of projectors that I am working on that takes precedence, as this side work helps pay for alot of this stuff.

But as for the build itself I am tinkering with the water/meth injection setup and maybe I'll post pics of that as I get it going. hang in there. and THANK YOU for you continued support it means alot!

Sorry, I dropped the ball on this. I'll give him a jingle today. I've been a little busy.

 

Thank you Vic, Shout out to you too Buddy! also can you contact Dr. Gas. On a side note Ran was able to talk to Courtney about tuning her so that made me feel very relieved.

 

Courtney??? Who's that?

Here's their website.

He's the local Honda tuner. There's a few turbo Honda's roaming around tuned by him. I don't know if he does n/a stuff though. This should be interesting to say the least.

 

Oh, thanks "Guest". I was going to PM you something a while ago but you changed your name from Roar so I couldn't. I didn't know your new name. You're going to need the new update of the dyno tuned Type 1 chip.

 

Top row far right, but also a highly respected tuner in the racing industry, has a 9 second Civic.

And back to business I got the down piping pulled and on their way to Joe

 

Not much to update. I had a moment of free time while waiting for my battery charger to charge for the headlights I am working on for another member. But the downpipe is in the process of being welded and I didn't want to feel as though I totally neglected my car so I decided to start routing the water/meth injection setup. I will include location pics once the piping is done.

 

Joe and myself want to know what steps must be completed before we can take a ride in your car. Also, remember tommorrow you have to be at the shop.

 

not fair he gets to ride first ...refer to sig vic...J/p

 

Hmm there are a few steps left but we are getting very close once the piping is all welded up the remaining steps will be figuring out what we discussed last night putting everything together and some tuning, lol that's a pretty vague answer. I just don't want to overexcite myself just yet, seeing that today was a sunny day and the roads were dry was bad enough.

 

What would a Legend Twin Turbo Down-pipe look like?
Well here is my idea of what it would (does) look like.. . .Yummy!

I could not be happier with the flow of the Y

A shot of how it will sit in the engine bay

A shot from the backside

A couple more shots

Test fit of the fittings

 

Nice!:thumbsup:

 

:vomit:

^that's what I'm doing in your car when the turbos spool up.

 

Looks Great!

Thanks guys and Vic I will bring you a bag lol. I can't thank Joe enough it was perfect. Lol Though I guess I could share the fear that we had when we were sliding it into place just after being tacked. I nearly had a panic attack because it just didn't look right at first (being the first time I saw it fully assembled outside of the car without being supported somehow. Then as we were fitting it in the engine bay it seemed way off at first. Then once it shifted in to place a sigh of gratification fell upon me like well lol.
