Drewhall07's Turbo EGT build

[bomdoutscort]

ignition coil.. dnt have to be a smartass.. damn

well you just might want to get your stuff straight so you dont mislead someone

[drewhall07]

so i did a lil work to the car sum more 2day. Did alil test fitting and making brakets for the Intercooler

Middle bracket jus holding it on


Few pipes ran




Took everything back off, and took the tow hooks off and cut the ends off and put them back on, also put on my powesteering cooler so i could relocate it so i could mount the intercooler.


Also did a lil more fiberglassing on the bumper, proly will be done next week sumtime and the next 2 weeks i work alot. and dnt have any pics, as i was doin it in my spare time so i didnt have the cam on me. But will get sum pics when its done.

Also ill be gettin my HKS bov flange 2mrrw, and im still waitin on the gtx ECU to come in the mail. Then ill be ordering a new Fidanza Flywheel on my next paycheck, and maybe start puttin this baby together if i can find a shop to dyno and tune for me for pretty dcent price.

Well I got the fuel pump frm a good friend (Jinx) and he packed it up real good for me.

And idk if ima keep that bracket on there or not, jus made it to help kinda hold the IC up and center ways. That was jus a lil test fitting, I still gotta finish making brackets for it and get it lined up w.o sittin sideways. Lol

If your gonna have it dyno tuned you might want to look into a safc to have them tune the fuel with around the 3-5000 range with the gtx ecu

[jackscort]

I have a gtx ecu that I could part with! Its the BP55 but works the same except with a 6500 redline (which is safer with 9:1)

[drewhall07]

[drewhall07]

ok well as sum of u kno who have been watchin my mx3 build thread, i had to quit buildin on the mx3 becuz of money being short. so since i alrdy have everything i need to go ahead and swap everything into the escort im goin back with the escort for now. and just gonna leave the mx3 onthe backburner until im able to finish it like i want to. but neways, im bringing life back to this thread and will be updating this one from now on.



well since thats out the way, i didnt a few things 2day, i put the new rx7 460cc injectors in with the gtx fuel rail, and i also filled the motor mounts. and also put on a mx3 lower tie bar, but dont have pics, and stole the front strut tower bar from the mx3 also. no pics of that either but yea








lemme kno what ya think.
