  1. PART 3!! I apologize for the delay.. I got lazy/unmotivated/busy/etc.. This one isn't too exciting, just making some changes to allow the turbo inlet fitment, and turbo oil feed plumbing. https://youtu.be/KbIo18DpMFw
  2. Thanks! We do have a LGT crossmember to swap in this coming weekend! Bingo!!
  3. Part 2 is up! In this episode, we tackle installing the air-to-water intercooler. https://youtu.be/jerAkQo21IU
  4. Video 1.5 is up! https://youtu.be/m6urye4xIX0 Lots of work done today.. and more tomorrow. I'll have a video up next week of us actually working! Some progress pics: Installing the AWIC radiator and pump Pump and relay/fuse box 100% complete Inside the pump relay/fuse box Radiator complete Hella horn mounting Subimods Hella horn harness Rear galley plug used for turbo oil feed and AVLS oil temp sensor relocation OEM turbo manifold sandblasted, painted, and ready for wrap
  5. I’m interested to see your test results.. that would be an easy option! I have all of my parts already, so it’s not something that I’ll be trying..but I will definitely spread the word if it is a viable option. Thanks!
  6. I found an article about the 15+ 3.6 engines.. “The 6-cylinder engine is a 3.6R, DOHC BOXER with sequential multi-port fuel injection with cylinder head direct mount multi-spray injectors” That being the case, I’m gonna say none of the STI injectors will fit
  7. One of my cats came apart internally and sounded like a loose bolt rattling inside the pipe. But it started as a heat shield rattle sound
  8. This is an image I saved a long time ago...in case I ever got around to doing this turbo setup. I think mine is planned similar to the bottom one. https://i.imgur.com/rOkB94z.jpg
  9. I don’t quite understand your explanation. I thought I had it all figured out after reading for a while.. I’ll have to do more research. My stock 2.5i has the pcv valve going to the intake manifold post throttle body. The crank case and both valve covers go to the intake pre throttle body. I was assuming I could set it up similarly when the turbo is installed, but with cans on the 3 connections going to the intake tube.
  10. The PCV valve on my car does go to the intake manifold for strong vacuum. The fitting that the PCV valve attaches to has an elbow that bypasses the PCV valve and goes to the inlet before the turbo(or just the intake tube before the throttle body right now). Boost in the intake manifold will close the PCV valve, and the other 3 connections will still be pulled on through the inlet tube.
  11. Its raining and I'm still waiting on some parts, so here's some crappy drawings of the intercooler setup and a dual catch can setup.
  12. Thanks for the support! All of the parts have been coming in this week. I am excited. We shall see. I know there will be some hurdles, mainly the turbo inlet tube going under the manifold. I think I can make it work fairly easy though. Thanks!
  13. Well, my tipsymechanic account is no more, so I will be posting from this account going forward.
  14. Wow!I can’t even imagine how bad that thing ran with that exhaust mismatch! Nice find on the junkyard motor!
