So I finally have my car swapped to a 5 speed, everything running good, ACT heavy duty clutch kit with full face street disc and I am ready to get to the turbo part of the build. So I consulted my pile of car crap and decided to use a twin entry J spec ceramic CT26. I also have a steel bladed turbo But I want spool time.
AAAAHH!!! Its eating my can of dew!
Its just been rebulit and has no shaft play at all
I also have autometer boost, oil pressure gauges and I am almost done making a fiberglass a pillar pod for the two. I have a set of supra injectors, a 2 bar map sensor, a twin entry manifold and all the stock oil and water lines for the turbo(s). Now I need an intercooler, downpipe, fuel pump, shit nevermind I have a long ways to go. I will keep you updated on how the destruction of my motor is going.
contragts... this is gonna be something to follow.

Yeah and I forgot to mention two tanks O' Nawws! No really though Im just using the ceramic one. The other dirty one is a steel bladed US spec CT26 that I am getting oil and water lines off of. I will post up pictures of each stage and let everyone know how things go.
Nope sorry I am not doing twin turbo as I said before, I'm not that dumb. But as for the second turbo I am not sure, it needs a rebuild badly and has no water or oil lines now, its just a turbo needing a rebuild and a WG actuator. I have done a ton of research so far, past year or so and I decided to do this project in 2 stages, auto to 5 speed swap with a heavy duty clutch, then after all that is done and working perfectly, turbo and associated fuel and engine mods. I have the last of the 5- speed issues cleared up, one more code the ECU throws for a missing O/D cancel switch, the one that goes on the shifter knob. I cut it off and now the ECU says its out of self test range. But I got rid of 10 other codes for speed sensor and shift solenoids. I will be keeping you guys up on major things though thanks for all the help you guys have given me !
