turbo 1300 to turbo 2300 conversion

[dsrace]

oh i agree and they have made changes to the latest model the xs model. thats $1k now and i picked this one up for $500 so i`m not complaining but its not that old!

old outdated connector or not the nice thing is it gives me a direct plug in for canbus communication. this is great as i bought this gauge  http://perfecttuning.net/en/gauge/54-universal-gauge.html there is a video on his site. with this gauge through canbus connection i can view live data. the only thing i cannot view through ecu is oil psi as the ecu doesn't receive feedback from sensor. but there are 3 analog inputs for the gauge so i added oil psi. i can set safetys for all parameters. but i can view 4 sensors at once and split the led's into 4 quarters so i can use the led's a a visual gauge with the display if i need to look closer plus when the safety parameter is met the full cirlce of led will flash red or whatever i select, and display what is out of range. i looked at what 4 individual gauges cost me for afr, oil psi, water coolant and boost or ethanol content gauge for flex fuel sensor.....the gauge was cheaper and more useful!

Very nice! Slap some dirt tires on there before test drive thru field, and GoPro.

i did buy some A/T tires and with a little luck my header will show this week. then i can finish it up and fire it up! finally!

well here is a few pics of the log style header oemmotorsports built for me. he rolled the 3 flange over 15* to aim the turbo down to drop it a couple inches. should have over 5 " drop for oil return still and wg port is in a better location. not what i wanted to but prob stronger for the weight of the holset turbo. i will still be able to make a cover in that corner to dull the noise from the turbo right behind my wifes head rest. he also moved the t3 flange forward 2" so i have plenty of room for dp which places the #3 cyl runner directly into the flange. luckily i am seq fuel injection now so i can atleast check runner temps and adjust #3 if it causes a lean burn. really not sure if it will effect it or not but a thought anyway.

i like to think this is enemy's goal with his turbo ranger build and feels like he's there with the new efr turbo lol

Damn that Ranger is getting it done! Looks like a Twin-I Beam landing on the earlier launch LOL.. Maybe someday for mine... I decided to give up on the eBay T-5, it just chucked its guts on a full boost 2-3 shift the other eve, limped it home 9 miles.. had to get in the back seat and kickk it out of reverse gear to move it yesterday lol.. I put 10,000 hard miles on it so fell I got my moneys worth lol. Road race prepped TKO600 will be taking it's place shortly!
The new log header is perfect location and built to handle much abuse, that guy does as nice of work as the first flake you were dealing with. Your car looks like a monster sitting next to mine in your garage! Awesome job man!!
