The Jet. Boost build.

Want to know a tip of fabricating turbo manifolds that I found after building more than I can count...
Telescopic PVC straight sections to get your lengths perfect

[jet86]

Arrival of the gtx2867r and .64 tial housing.

First runner (hardest one) is done and collector sitting in its final spot.

[jet86]

Made up the sump weld on bung for the oil drain.

[jet86]

This is where i am at with the manifold at the moment, the turbo still needs to be raised about 60mm with a straight piece off the collector which will also be where the wastegate will be welded onto. I have not yet fabricate the last 2 primaries as I would like to get them less than 1% equal length via cad program. Takes longer than you think lol

This is getting good. The suspense is killing me.

Update.
I have cut the rest of the pipe for the manifold but have run out of gas to weld it. Waiting from a reply from visconti about tune and fuel system, this will be running 15psi on e85 and should have close to 400hp+

Hi there mate,

How do you like the Whiteline bit? I have installed the Perrin Transmission mount with this (increased the whole in the whiteline to accomodate the Perrin) and it is quite harsh.

How about yours without the Perrin?

[jet86]

I don't find it harsh at all, Perrin shifter bush along with the white line transmition mount insert feels a lot more positive, no slack in the driveline anymore and no shifter shake.

Cheers for that! Yeah the shifter is not shaking at all really...is just that I can hear all the clunks nad noises from the gearbox...sounds a bit like a racing car whihc I kinda like but not everybody knows that I have a very tight gearbox and they might think the car is fucked already!

That's just a sports car for you

This is gonna be one of the best AU builds IMO!! More updates plz.

I also find the nvh from cusco tranny mount a bit annoying. Can only hear it in city driving though.

Yeah, well...that coupled with the Perrin transmission mount...it is even worse on the 1st or second at very low revs...but awesome when it starts to pick up in revs. It beats the intake sound tube hands down.
