It has been almost a year working on this conversion, it has been very hard for me. But I think it will worth it.
I will post more updates soon

That exhaust outlet is full of win!
I thought you were going TIII? Changed your mind,
The angle should be the other way on the external gate at the turbine housing, so the exhaust goes with the exhaust and not against it.
Other than that, nice. Any work done to the head?

just dump the wastegate into open air!!!! comon simon i thought u were a fan of the screamer pipe now
edit: what pistons and rods are you using? srt ones?
im guessing thats one of those cast log manifolds, similar to an ATP one?
def need some sort of better intake on there, otherwise its looking great.
theres lots of rooom for improvements on the head, if you wish to venture off and do your own porting
have to bring this thread back ive been waiting for too long for updates. anything???
That is looking very nice. Great work.
Its been a while, at last I have my engine working. I passed trough money issues =(
But ... Its alive !!!
Congrats on getting it running.
Sounds awesome. You running some aftermarket cams?
It sounds like it has aftermarket cams, but it does not have them. I was very surprise when I make the first run, a friend of mine told me that the sound maybe related to the custom intake manifold
nice, did you go with a 2.2 or 2.5? and what electronics are you running it on, lm, smec, sbec or? and are you running a wideband?
either way, good to see another run running
I went with the 2.5, using SBEC1 for +40 and 3bar, I do have the Wideband AEM uegonice, did you go with a 2.2 or 2.5? and what electronics are you running it on, lm, smec, sbec or? and are you running a wideband?
