I know most of you guys are more into turbocharging V8's but I'm just really excited about getting it together.Should have it running in a week or so,just gotta wait for a few more parts - an Innovative Pro Gate and some fuel fittings - and it should be running.Good thing too cause I'm going stir crazy here and E-Town opened today





Steve

 

Looks great keep us updated.

 

beautiful.. good luck and post some times when you finally get the chance to run....

 

:rockon: :rockon: :rockon: :rockon:

thanks A TON

 

Very Nice, you are doing that thing up clean.

How much HP & Torque you figure it is going to make?

BW

 

Lookin' good!

 

Thanks guys

As far as a hp figure - I set more of an ET goal of 9.99 to reach and I figure this combo should get me there(with tuning)

But I'm guessing something like 600-625hp(but no more than 650 cause my injectors will be maxxed)with at least as much if not more torque.Eventually I'm gonna upgrade to a ball bearing 70 turbo and 72 or 83# injectors and with that I'd hope to be closer to 700hp,at which point the heads and block become real limiting factors but thats probrobly a project for next summer.

Steve

 

looking good steve...can't wait to see that thing in action

i can't believe it still says wash me on the window there....i think i wrote that there over a year ago...LOL

 

:hail: TTA850

 

I'll have pics of my install next month :rockon: :rockon:

 

Hey steve, any chance TGTA001 will be ready so you can drive it down here to philly when you help with my swap?

 

tta850 sweet car, loving the new engine, off the post topic, but you think oyu could get some good shots of that cowl hood oin here, i would love to see htem and also whut size cowl is it...thanks alot!

 

Tony,1st week of April it better be running if I'm gonna get it tuned in time to run that CBR in May.Never know maybe you'll see it in Philly

britered86transam,thanks I can take a few shots and popst em here(or take a bunch from all angles and send em to ya)if ya want.Let me know,I'll take some pics tomorrow.

Steve

 

yeah if you could take a bunch of that hood and send them to me that would be great! my email is njdevilz27@aol.com thanks so much

 

Love the idea of the heat shield on the coolant overflow bottle.

 

cool dude, i wanna hear this thing run, i've seen it enough times, time to hear and see it in action that'd be bad *** if u bring to philly for my swap. Two TGTA's side by side, but um don't be surpised if i get u so drunk u pass out, then i can take your TTA motor and swap it with mine

 

hey tta850, jsut wondering if you got thos cowl pics....thanks

 

There you go being polish again now I know your plan

britered86transam,sending pics now - took em earlier today but had to go pick someone out of a police line up(long story)

Steve

TTA850

Jon
jmnierengart@students.wisc.edu

 

you have mail

 

i'm buying one to go with my turbo! TTA850, we'll match

That is such a sweet hood.. it perfectly matches the lines of a GTA like no other aftermarket hood I have seen does... Sweet!

Jon

 

Cool deal Jon,I feel the same way about it

I've also updated the pics on the top of the page scince adding new intercooler hoses(red ),finishing up the fuel line and other stuff.

Also added my wastegate,an Innovative Turbo Systems Pro Gate.This thing is not only beautifull,but huge compared to Turbonetics delta and racegates.



Steve

 

Hay steve looks awsome , im gana try and go this root agin on the firebird in june when i get home from school for good wyoming sucks i cant wait to get back to brooklyn.. ill have to look you up

 

I can only say one word: WOW

 

Guys thanks again for the compliments - after all the hard work it's very apreciated

EddieDellZ I bet ya miss the food huh? I know thats what I miss most when I'm away from home :hail: L&B Spumoni Gardens,I love that place Drop me an email when ya get back

Anyway good news is the car is running and running great,I just gotta get an exhaust on it asap(it's ordered and on it's way from ATR).I've run stock turbo's with no exhaust before but with the larger turbo and exhaust housing it is just way louder than I expected.

Bad news is I'm a little tapped at the moment(buying another car)and can't get the 12 bolt rear right now,maybe not this year so it looks like I'll have to keep it on pump gas and launch softly to keep the stock rear in one piece,oh well I guess I can live with 11's for this year

Steve

 

When people ask me what i miss about ny one of the things i allways say is food yeah spamonii gardens thats one of the first places im gana hit up in june i love that place especially in the summer. plus chinese food but the experiance taught me to just get up and cook my dinner lol i have a full kitchen in my dorm wyotech dorms are cool ne way ill probably shoot you a email in 2 months lol later
-Ed
