Top work there and an interesting thread to read, keep it up

Stavros · 27-04-2008, 12:13

mint.

what heat wrap is that stevo? looks more like the stuff you wrap things in to keep the heat off rather than the stuff you wrap things in to keep the heat in?

coool cool. stevo can i come up and look at it sometime? looks mint

CANHCR32 · 01-05-2008, 04:09

Ive always heard heat wrapping your manifold is bad because it holds in to much heat and can cause the manifold to crack. a cast manifold is stronger at avoiding this problem. correct me if Im wrong

cptsideways · 01-05-2008, 08:22

If thats the sticky heat wrap Steveo - no non nononononono - the glue catches on fire!!! Its only heat shielding stuff

**Mitch** · 01-05-2008, 08:48

It looks like it's made for that job if I'm looking at the right link...

Nelo · 01-05-2008, 08:55

The engine looks at home there Steveo, really nice work. This is going to be another weapon I think

I guess if it cracks then you can just re-weld it and make it stronger

gaz_moose · 01-05-2008, 20:41

wow that stuff must be mint that turbo is glowing red hot!!!

koukiboy · 01-05-2008, 20:55

Wow it's so a great project!!!

CANHCR32 · 02-05-2008, 04:30

you should love that turbo aswell, I run the exact same one .70a/r aswell. in my overbored rb25, with tomei cams. and it makes great power I hit full boost at about 3700rpm (only 10psi makes about 380whp not dyno'd yet) with the 3litre you should have a very usedable power range. where is your redline set at 7200?

you running a gt35r 0.63 ? not sure think im gonna run between 7000-7500 depends on power lol

CANHCR32 · 04-05-2008, 04:15

no, i run a/r 0.70 gt35r same as the turbo in the pic above I run to 8000rpm, but I have a full forge motor going in, in about 2-3weeks and then I hope it will make about 420-430whp. with your extra displacement it'll be a blast and desently responsive

MR-steveo · 05-05-2008, 00:11
