Tacos 4KTQ I0vt Swap: The Red Baron - buying parts again

[chaloux]

I'm feeling the same way right now. Can't catch a break.

lolol

[DE80q]

I know the feeling all too well. I keep buying parts, and still havent gotten the car running. Just sucks some times...

[AngryTaco]

Whatever just means Im making too much power. Guess that means its time for more.

All I gotta say is Im glad I shelled out the money for a 65lb tractor battery from work for these types of situations.

[vt10vt]

That is a huge battery! And sounds like you decided to go with the bigger turbo over A/C?

[AngryTaco]

Ordered custom plates today. It shall remain a secret until they arrive!

[AngryTaco]

That is a huge battery! And sounds like you decided to go with the bigger turbo over A/C?

Yeah I dont need the turbo taking a shit in the middle of nevada

[AngryTaco]

Scored huge at junkyard. Picked up a complete 7A head for CHEAP. Once they sell, Dave is getting his turbo monies!!!!!

[AngryTaco]

Guess who has a shiny new volvo turbo on the way? !

[scubadave]

Santa! Cause he's tired of the reindeer getting stupid high off the nitrous.

[AngryTaco]

Lol. Doesnt nitrous put you to sleep since its laughing gas?

[AngryTaco]

Just throwing this out there as well, but if anyone has some EV14 injectors they'd like to sell for a good price, let me know.

Looking for 52lbs/hour up to 70. Haven't decided if I'll want the ability to run e85

[ringbearer]

You know you want E85...
Go bigger injectors so it's an option

[AngryTaco]

Well I do but the problem is availability. I know i'll need an 044 pump, bigger injectors, MOAR TIMING, and a place to get it. I think there is one place in Spokane though.

I know I can get over my goal of 425 crank hp with E85

[AngryTaco]

I'm looking at these

http://www.ardesign.org/Bosch-EV14-Fuel ... RD-004.htm

$330 for 5 injectors...oh my

Guess I gotta pay the price for big powah next year when VEMS finally gets installed.


Oh btw....I'm predicting I'll be putting the highest numbers down on CIS this year at BBQ LOL

[ringbearer]

If its too far away for an E85 station get a 50 gallon drum and a pump, do your own fill ups .

[AngryTaco]

Well there is a place near my work about 15mins away. $3.70/gallon though holy crap.

If I quit and go out on my own for HPR, 50 gallon drums it is

[AudiSport4000]

No dyno numbers? :(

SAD FACE

[AngryTaco]

Im getting dyno numbers at BBQ. There are no local 4WD/AWD dynos around here

[AngryTaco]

Ok so big update.

I will have the volvo turbo on wednesday.

I also, at the advice of Dave, have secured the correct turbine housing off of a porsche k26.
I paid the guy $200 shipped for basically every related turbo part in his garage as he would not seperate.

So on that note, I have a bunch of extra porsche turbo parts for sale.

So the plan is to remove the modified Audi k24 housing and replace it with the porsche k26 housing.

This is gonna be one bad 20vt

[my2000apb]

its not a BAD 20vt til you have a sheet that says how bad@ss it is based on a number hehe

[DE80q]

You will have to let me know which housing you needed. I have a porsche K26 wheel and housing that I am not sure about using. Still in the middle of the um... i dont know stage of my hybrid turbo.

[AngryTaco]

Ermahgawd terrbboz arrivez tomorrow!!!

[chaloux]

Ahhhh, I remember feeling like that :-)

[scubadave]

Hey now, love the turbo...but don't loooovve the turbo. Mkay?
