my header. what do ya think?

heder and cut out all mocked up!

got the headers done... well almost. still need to put two more flex sections in, put on the other waste gate, and tig it all together. all the clearances look good with 1/4 around every thing. kind of tightly packed but it all fits and should work gate! let me know what you guys think.

 

Looks like some awsome work. Very happy to see that the project is coming along nicely and fairly quickly.

 

wow that looks like a lot of friggin work!

 

thanks. will have more pics tomarrow of the exhoust cut out and all that stuff

 

I like it! Side exhaust?

 

it goes to t3h turb0z in the foglight pocket.

 

this thing is going to awesomely loud! i cannot wait to hear it.

ibthistingshootmadflames!

 

for real?............ fine! starting over! throwing this one away!

 

^ haha it looks great. thats going to be a fun car once ya get it all done.

 

Looking good, Matt.

 

got the cut out section done today! looks pritty cool to me. should work out well i think. sits two inches below bottom of the bunper. so even with the lip i will put on later.

 

so why did you add those flex pipes for? wouldn't it be better off just being all pipings?

 

there needs to be flex sections so it has room to expand and contraste. two more are going between the banks once they get here.

 

Where'd you get your exhaust valve for the straight pipe?

 

quick time performance

 

It'd be cool to have a quiet(er) muffler and one of those things on my car.

 

i second the melted tire...but its a hotsetup for sure

 

Just vent it into the passenger compartment.

 

haters! what do yah know. not on mn subaru...... its at a angle that would actualy shoot it out past the tire. with every thing else wrapeed up the ying-yang im not too worryed about it.

 

That turbo back exhaust is just way too long. You might need to shorten it! haha

 

That's some JDM cut/welded technique, you copy me! hehehe
FUNCTION Over form! It's a wicked setup!

 

new intake manafold! pics!

all ready on top of that! boom....




check out what i got tacked up! not done yet cuz i have to round out ware the runners meet the plentum and i havent decided how i want the tb done. open to suggestions....... well really i havent decided if i want to keep the stock tb or go bigger. its set up for stock in the pics.

 

Are you going to try to put some sort of bellmouths on the ends of the runners inside the plenum? That would probably help smooth out airflow down the runners. I found this article which looks like its way over most of our heads about sizing bellmouths correctly. Have you looked at the Magnus Motorsports manifold? That might give you some ideas. That one has a splitter inside the plenum across from the TB to help split the airflow to each side smoothly. This is interesting too for designing custom exhaust piping.

This is all very cool. I wish I had the tools and knowledge for this kind of fabrication. We're all dying to see this thing running.

 

Check this out:

 

yah what i ment by rounding out the runners in the plentum is making them bellmouth. they wont stick out like that but will be bellmouthed. will be doing a dividor allso but becouse i havent decided what tb to use i dont know ware to put it.

 

So you're dumping hot exhaust gases in front of/near the RF tire. Watch out, bad things happen to heated tires....KABOOM. But I read, you could care less.

How about adding a merge collector? http://burnsstainless.com/MergeCollectors/mergecollectors.html

You must be good at TIG welding.

 

come on people! how many times do i have to say that yah its in front but it shoots it out away frrom the tire. it will be fine! thanks soo much for the consern. and what woud i need the collector for?

 

^your asking people what they think... and they are telling you.

 

besides it may shoot away from the tire when parked... but when moving???? wouldnt all the heat go in the opposite direction of travel... aka unless in reverse INTO the tire... either way kudos for innovation.....

 

not only shooting heat/flame away or twards teh tire, the massive amounts of heat that turbo is going to create is going to do a number on that tire too. looks good tho, i love the mani's!

 

yes i am asking what you think. and over and over you guys tell me that it will kill my tire. for one, the dump tube will be open when raceing only for it will be loud and dont need to atracked attention. so 12 seconds tops. second the turbo should be compessing and shooting that air out so fast that if it can make it 2 inches farther out the exhoust before that cold ass air blows it back into the tire five inches away so be it. thats one week ass tire then. i love hearing all the suport from you guy and value your opinion but like i said give it a rest.

 

If you are worried about heat, pop-rivet some thin stainless steetmetal around the turbo on that side. That would reflect a TON of heat away from your tire.


Oh, and there's a major gain in flow by moving the horn shaped riser inlets past the plenum wall, like in the example pic.



It all looks tizzight though.

 

or you could re-'engineer' the tire placement to inside the engien bay where there will be way less heat now withouth the turbo sitting in there... ha hah


oh thats right you said drop it didnt you.... sorry but somehow I dont see that happening on here... just cause you are saying it everypost I think someone will post about it.... hah a

 

so you are saying that every one wants to be a **** on hear? so no will drop it? ok than i wont post the stuff on hear then. there are manny other foums out there and poeple that dont just come on there to be ****s. i love mn subaru and will still post stuff but not about my project. so they might as well lock this.

 

I think someones upset that he's not getting a PS3

 

i know! its so hard to handle that i will cost me 2gs to get one! so im flipping out!

 

nooooooo dont stop posting in here...i wanna follow this!

 

no i didnt say that about this forum YOU DID.... if you dont want to post then dont... crap I sent pics of my new graphics to my dad and he basically told me they sucked and he hoped I was redoing them.... so what... Im gonna cry and not email my dad anymore cause I have an inferiority complex on what someone thinks about what I did.. boohoo..... grow up... read a dictionary.... and keep posting....

I think what you have built is far more intuitive then 95% of what anyone else on this club has done... whether it is practicle or whether will work is not the question... but it is a FORUM which usually means people will give you their opinion regardless of how much you piss and moan like a little girl....

and you say no-one on any of the other forums say anything... like what mnsportcompact site.... big friggin hairy deal....

but thats ok... you seem to know EVERYTHING about EVERYTHING and dont care about others concerns for your safety.. so whatever... ps... I hear cable tying your plastic fuel lines to the exhaust is quicker and easier than routing it... try it....

 

Wow. Let's gang up on the guy actually tackling a big project.... :roll:

 

I'm sure everyone still supports his project but he did kinda freak out a bit orver just a couple of comments.

 

^ yeah what jason said......
