:stupid: I'm stareing, but can't quite figure out why there's and intercooler and BOV, but I'm not seeing a turbo or air filter.

10-16-2006, 08:21 PM
talk about home made turbo... shit... does it come with an installation book?
what scares me is that its on an old school maxima... not to mension an automatic... i guess he is trying to prove something... either that or compensating for a lack of a life

10-16-2006, 09:01 PM
the turbo may actually spool up pretty good with that 3.0, but damn why tear apart the whole car for some dumb shit like that

10-16-2006, 09:03 PM
let me rephrase that, those turbos. :D

i would be afraid that i would grab the turbo and burn my hand. ouch. and i actually like the functional exhaust exit in the door in some weird kinda way.

that side mount interfooler is pretty tight.

wow. someone reallyy wanted twin turbo. i can understand the theory behind it: not enough room in engine bay. but i cant understand the logic involved.
people with those maximas are crazy. i used to work with a guy that had one and tried to make a supercharger off a mercedes bolt up. i think he actually got it to make pressure but then it fuckd up. we called him "doodie".

10-17-2006, 08:22 AM
if you look closely, the intercooler isn't hooked up, and theres a hole in the charge piping behind the strut brace.

i think it was another forum i was thinking about.... :lol:
yea, I did steal if from a local board ;)
I thought the hardcore "rearmount sucks" guys might get a kick out of it over here.

This is one of the WTF moments you wonder how in the world that this seemed like a good idea, i suppose not having a floor is free ventilation?

Interesting, i wonder if it works well. Props to the d00d for his ingenuity anyways.
" Low "
10-17-2006, 11:41 AM
i mean i would'nt have any qualms, about doing this setup,
however, i would have made a removable insulated cover to go over that, to
keep everything that is sposta be out, out.....
like water, dirt, rock, animals, stray prostitutes looking for a warm place to sleep,
and umm toxic fumes.... that would be the biggie.

no, they wont go on for a while. I had a set for my wagon, but my del sol needed them, so I used them on there, so I just picked up another set (from you) for the wagon.
I did just read that they cause snap oversteer...this could be all speculation though, ohs wells :bigugh:
" Low "
10-17-2006, 02:48 PM
i am going to buy another set here in the future along with ANOTHER masterbushing kit, i have some really disturbing plans for the civic but i wont reveal them for a while just yet.....

To the anti-rear mount camp, follow link http://khturbo.net/rmtz24/RMTZ24.html
RMT Z24. Yeah it's a cavalier, but the fab work is great, times are good, and the owner has nothing but good things to say.
