not sure of the header. i just changed plugs, wires, cap and distributor. i was told the cam timing is set at 0, not sure how to tell if the ignition timing is right, i have a inline boost controller but just bought a manual one off ebay. i looked at the cheap turbos on ebay but everyone i looked at said 8PSI, im not sure if that means its only good for that much boost or what.like this one right here http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/T3-T4-Turbo-Turbocharger-w%2f-wastegate-V-Band-+-Timer_W0QQitemZ200282151511QQcmdZViewItem
well, my t5 turbo was made for volvos with 5 cylinders i believe.
my T5 turbo doesnt fully spool till about 5,200ish rpm with a racing header. max boost ive gotten up to is 18lbs. is this because of my head being restrictive? would the higher flower exhaust im going to get help this spooling problem? at 3-4000rpm it puts out around 7lbs, 4-5200rpm it bumps up to 10-15lbs then once it hits 5,200 it feels like vtech and bumps up to 18lbs. i shut down around 5,800rpms.
ok, i think this is what i can come up with, 3"turbo back, highflow cat, one flowmaster super 40, then split into 2.5 duals with 3" wide 12" long stainless tips cut at an angle. do you think that would flow pretty well considering i have a racing header and T5 turbo?
ok thanks for your help. i didnt put into consideration how loud it would be dumping out right beside me. should i go 3 inch to the ler, then dual 2.5 running out the back?
does anybody know what a turbo coupe would sound like running a 3" magnaflow exhaust(cat and ler) that comes out right before the the driverside rear tire sounds like? just a single exhaust.
here are the connections and tuner. has anybody seen anything like that? and one more thing i dont get. my boost got up to 18+ pounds of boost using the mass air adaptor but it only gets up to 11ish pounds of boost when the stock airbox meter is on. and both stutter at 11-13lbs.
