Pics of my on3 4v turbo install

[2001Snake]

Hey fellas, i know theres a couple of these already but i havent found any 4v kit installs with pics so i figure ill contribute some. I started on my kit yesterday eavening and worked on it for about 5 houre and worked on it for about 3 hours today and i have all of the piping (hot and cold) ran into place exept for the intercooler.Im making me some mounts for it in the morning and then ill mount it up. Everything has fit great exept for one piece and that was the pipe that connects to the driver side manifold and it wasnt a big deal.Just had to grind a little off the corner of the k member, paint it black and bolt it back up. Any how heres a few pics of what i have got so far!

so far so good! Any body have any advice feel free to help a brother out! LOL! Im new at installing turbo's but it going good.I have to drill and tap the pan and im not really sure of where or how the best way of doing that is so some help would be nice please.

Thanks guys and ill update this daily

Yea man im exited! I figured it would take two weeks to get it done but at this rate ill be done in a few days. I think ill just run 8lbs for now and i figure that should put me around 480 at the wheels maybe?? :banana:

Everyones ordering the O3P kits these days. It seems like a easy install though. Good luck and cant wait to see some results.

Are you on stock motor?

I heard that Chad upgraded the V bands from 6mm to 8mm so maybe these are just the newer vbands??

OP any problems with the vbands that came with the kit?

looks awesome, good luck, when tapping the pan, most people i have seen take a threading head and put it on a power drill then obvious drill into the pan and thread in the tap...and then clean out your oil pan because i am sure you dont want all that crap floating around, if you go easy enough nothign should even get into the pan..gl

Yea I am currently on the stock long block but I'm getting all the stuff I need gathered up to build me a boost friendly short block. Once I get the motor built I'll have to upgrade the fuel and then I'm uping the boost!


Thanks for all the good words guys!

Looking good ... Do you think the fans will hit the turbo ? What spring rate do you have for the coil overs?

 

[Mustang Matt]

Did you go with the default turbo or upgrade to one of the other options?

This has probably been asked 500 times but will this kit work with a MM K member made for a Hellion kit?

 

[Mustang Matt]

I just ordered a kit through my tuner and we're going to try to make it work on a non-hellion MM k-member. It will probably be a few weeks but I'll report back with details.

Im glad the v-bands look stronger that was bothering me .. Hopefully these are improved

I may could get the oem fan to work with a little work but I think I'm going to go with a couple small fans to go in there. I can't remember what rate springs I got but it rides good. Hahaha

I went went with the on3 turbo for now and later on I'll upgrade to somethin bigger and better!

from my knowledge of this kit so far I couldn't tell you for sure but I think I could be done but would take more modifications and headaches! Lol!

These v bands kick ass! When they get tight they are TIGHT!

just ordered the kit for my gt today. I feel like a little kid on Christmas morning again

your supposed to punch the pan...not drill it

Yea that's what they say to do but there's not much room there to be swingin a hammer and even after that the tap will leave shavings in the pan. So I just took the oil pan out and done it earlier. Now I have peace of mind about it.


I'll post some pics of it tommorow!

you put axel grease on it do 2-3 threads and take it back out clean it re lube it and do it again and you will not get anything in the pan plus when you use the punch it bends the metal in giving you more to tap and hold the fitting in place
