looks good, I have the turbo and a manifold to modify I just want to break in my engine I just rebuilt before I do mine. I am using a stock Ford Probe turbo, what trubo are you using? Keep up the good work and keep us posted.

Dennis [color:"purple"] [/color] Well, we are actually using a t3/t4 turbo for a honda civic. my husband is pretty crafty and it was a "leftover" from his project - turbo'd 80 honda civic cvcc with a b16, and now since we are now into my sporty project, we decided that we needed an extra power for it to help climb. We also put in a stage 3 clutch a couple of weekends ago too. The manifold is completely custom by my husband, you won't find another like it  It's definitely my favorite toy I've ever had !!

Thats funny, I think my Sportage is my favorite toy also, I think is because I have to build everything instead of buying it and just bolting it on. I had a guy tell me the other day he sold his Sportage because he could'nt find aftermarket parts and wanted to know where I found them, He was amazed when I told him I built everything but my front bumper (and that is changing soon). Let us know how it all comes together and how the computer handles it, I've been told with low boost it should do fine.

Really COOL <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> May inspire me to finish my turbo project. If you don't mind sharing, where did you pull oil for lubrication and where are you dumping it? Is your turbo water cooled too? If so, where are you taking water from and dumping it off? Did he use JGS Precisions flange for the base of his manifold? Next time I'm up your way, I would like to see it. I have family in Portland, Salem, and Keizer. Keep us posted on MPG's, power difference, and where new powerband is. Great Project!!!
