That is what we want right? A durastic change in the way the engine responds to the changes we make. Hmmm.

Peace
Kyle

Drastic on the high end, yes. Drastic on the low end, no. I'll put up with a little loss in low end but not the kind of loss that has been reported. it could make you slower.

 

[sr79labrat]

You have an automatic? Yes? I would understand then.

I know it does. He said we could do them after the turbo. Why in this order, I do not know, it sounds like a waste of time to me. I agree I am off topic...sorry.

To see updates of the car in action chech out the web page joulespeed.com , my car is there but there should be more pics than that.

Kyle

Do you have another motor to make the N/A headers or are you planning on ripping out the setup and trying it N/A.

If you don't have another motor/car to try it on then I am not gonna be holding my breath.

 

[sr79labrat]

I will be buying another engine. One will have to eventually be built for the turbo.

Thx Kyle

 

[Dethred]

Cool, good luck man. Don't let us down. If you do we might have to organize a country-wide meet on your doorstep (with baseball bats).

If you wouldnt mind I would- we could work out somthing. Would you want to dyno run your car? I would have to find 2 spare ex. manifolds again to prevent down time for you. Let me know. We could install after they were done!

Peace Kyle

yeah give me a call this weekend, we can work something out.

 

[sr79labrat]

Billy and I might have a plan here! Billy, what did Joule tell you? What are your vacation dates again?

Thanks Kyle

 

[skate4ever999]

i called there and some lady told me that john will call me back. that was friday, maybe he will call monday. :2cool:



ahhh i think the 24th-29th but i dont know

 

[sr79labrat]

Billy, she did not know what you were calling about. They said that they might have open time to get your car in there for a week to do headers and that they thought they would be easy to make. If you want to do this then you could just pay me back when they are done. Let me know and I will talk to them more about getting your car in the shop. If you do not wan tto go this route then we just need to find a spare set of exhaust manifolds. Back to plan A I guess. If any one wants to send spares in then I would no problem reimbursing the shipping cost for that person. Billy let me know.
I am checking on the car again tonight! Updates and maybe pics tom.

Peace Kyle

 

[skate4ever999]

lol i called and i said i was billy and i am calling about the acura legend header..... how much do you think it is gonna cost? i still want to do this.

 

[sr79labrat]

Sounds good, what are the exact dates of your vacation? I will ask them tonight if they can get your car in while you are gone. They are kinda crazy down there huh!

Thanks Kyle

 

[sr79labrat]

The mechanical setup is almost done on the turbo! Every thing is done except for the intercooler to turbo pipe, but hopefull that was done today! The turbo is mounted and it is infront of the engine to the lower left side. It looks pretty bad A$$ so far although it is kinda close to meltable plastics and vacumm hoses. I will post pics later this week if some one wouldnt mind if I sent pics to them through email. Should be done very soon!

Peace Kyle

R U gonna be adding anything like an oil catch tank and turbo timer???

 

[sr79labrat]

Pics were sent to SmartJay. Thanks in advance for posting them- I found out that he is going to paint all pipes the put them back on. He believes it should be up and running next week. The progress looks good so far. Let me know your thoughts. Billy, the will be about 350 with a new y pipe. Scott said that we could just remove the ex. manifold then bring it down here instead of the whole car if that would be easier.

Thanks Again
Kyle
