That is one of the most impressive set up's ive ever seen. Keep the updates comin!

Wow that's impressive.

that motor and turbo will tear that chassis in half

Not if its constructed like this!

shiet wth monkey bars! ok now thats more like it, goodluck can't wait for more uodates

dear god " that turbo setup is worthy to blow the doors off an STI cant wait to see the finshed product

Daaaaaamn. Is it awd?

That manifold has some seriously short runners. I wonder what your powerband will be like. Are you still planning to run the GT30R? Sick build dude.

yup, factory

The stock awd parts will handle that humongous beast of a turbo?

probably not, however, there are a few easy'ish upgrades that can be done.

Those cars are solid rear-end, right?

The runners aren't that short. Dont forget they do come up into the plenum a bit aswell. This will be a high RPM car- is still a 2.0L dont forget. Room is also an issue with these cars- clearing the master cylinders (don't forget this is RHD). The turbo i'm using is a GT4088R .95A/R


Here's a pic of one installed on an E39A VR4 (notice there's no master cylinders)



I chose Performance Metalworks to fabricate the intake manifold, as their work is amazing, and their stuff has been fitted to some of the fastest EVO's and VR4's in the world.



We also recently flow tested a small port (2g) intake manifold and the results were incredible. 2cfm difference difference in each runner. 438, 438, 436, 436 (CFM)

Yes. 2.846 ratio. I will be using a welded CD5W Libero GT diff centre and shafts in the stock CYBORG diff housing. That will give me the 3.545 ratio to match the rest of the driveline which is from an E39A VR4. PPG will be the ones entrusted to build the gearbox, to cope with 9000+ rpm shifts. Depending on how the transfer case and rear end holds up, there's always a Toyota Hilux 3.5:1 LSD rear diff conversion and shep trans transfer case, but for the time being, the stock stuff will have to do- and will do for 10 second passes at least!

Should easily pull 10's on pump, but in saying that- it always takes time to get the setup running right, to get the times i'm after. (Plus, the car actually has to be built first)

Even though the runners extend into the plenum, they look like they can't be more than 3 or 4 inches long. With a plenum like that it might not matter too much though, and you're running a large enough turbo to take advantage of a powerband like that. I run a built 2.0 liter myself, so I know all about the top-end and having to rev the piss out of it.

Don't YOU forget that we 'mericans got ours with the master cylinder on that side also .
