Pics of my inline turbo project

[66sprint6]

Just got these pics the other day. Car has been down since Christmas gettin the motor rebuilt and the turbo stuff ready. Its so close i can almost taste it!

Here are some pics of the J-pipe from the stock exhaust manifold and the downpipe we fabbed up.

Not an ALL OUT performance build, but itll be pretty fun non-the-less. Leaves me room to upgrade when I get bored of it, lol. Still plenty of work to do, but at least you get an idea of where its headed!

I think that's really cool.

I can't wait to see that in action.

thats cool!!!!

Nice. What are the specs on the turbo?

 

[66sprint6]

Its a stock (ported) Garrett off an 87 Buick Grand National. Thats what I remember, I believe the hot side A/R is .63 but i dont remember the cold side. Next time I get a chance Ill look it up. Motor is built to the teeth tho, Forged internals, 274S cam, new head with 3 angle and bigger valves, etc. Should be fun to see what this thing will do!

Sweet! - I remember having my old 200 in my 68'. VERY strong engine, although wasnt fast enough for me(90 hp stock)

Let us know how it does. - Are still keeping the points type ign?

 

[66sprint6]

Yeah, its a 200...well, we had to bore it .040 for the pistons, so whats that make it, a 202, 204 or somethin, I dunno, lol. I will be getting video of it when its done cause my buddy wanted to see it before he went to China for the semester but I didnt have a chance. Ill post all I can get when the time comes! Thanks for the kind words, I wanted to be a bit different and keep the six, but I wasnt getting any respect on the streets and at some shows dominated by higher HP cars...maybe this will help a bit lol

sounds like a straight T3 or so, i can't tell from the pics but thats good!(you may want to change the turbo though, bit small for a 6)

 

[66sprint6]

Its workin pretty good for a buddy of mine, REAL quick spooler, and it came originally on the Buick six. I will work my way up to either a T3/T4 hybrid or a T04B in the future.

Oh, and that Chevette looks like an AWESOME project car. I love random old compacts/hatchbacks that are built up (not hondas tho) There is an old 70s lancer and a few omnis around here that are awesome. Get a good video of that thing!

She's pushing 10lbs right now. It's fun but not fast yet. Going to put NOS to it and try to blow the motor so I can play with that too. But she's faster then it was beofre with her 65hp motor.

I'll Race you for pinks.

RICER lol jk man.
both cars are really damn neat, they sure stand out in crowds.

 

[66sprint6]

LOL mine started with about 65rwhp. Im hoping to push the 300 mark if I can. I know its possible...but this is my driver so I will turn it down for the everyday commute

Very nice, you don't see something like that everyday. Let us know what it puts down on the dyno once you finish it up!

 

[tiredofchex]

sweet. I love DIY turbo setups. They're fun because you can find all sorts of ways to gain a few extra hp. Port the head and add water/methanol injection and you'll be near 300 hp for sure.
