NSFW Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 This all makes me wish I'd gotten pictures while my motor was getting built. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Th3Franz Posted May 15, 2016 Author Share Posted May 15, 2016 Car is running now. 200 miles on the new build. Waiting on new fittings for the mishimoto oil cooler. Sounds pretty good with the 272s and maybe lost just a tad bit of power on the low end. Staying out of boost for now. -Franz The end of a Legacy http://www.youtube.com/th3franz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Capacity Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Thanks for the update.

legacybt Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Any updates? I'm looking into a very similar engine/TS 7163 turbo/exhaust setup, and would love to hear your feedback on how you like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Th3Franz Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 My Omni MAP sensor died so I'm running the stock one tuned at 20 PSI. It spools crazy fast and pulls hard to red line. I haven't been driving the car much since moving but soon will be time to get a new MAP sensor and turn up the boost again. The car is extremely loud with the nameless catback with 5 in mufflers though. -Franz The end of a Legacy http://www.youtube.com/th3franz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
