Re: Budget Turbo Build... From the ground up
another update... gonna start porting the head this week... finally got all the tools in exept the valve spring compressor... so i'll be renting that from the zone... anyways... i'll take quite a few pics and post up how i do it... plus i'll be bolting this motor in before the turbo gets strapped to it for break-in purposes and i'll let you know how much of a difference its made.
hopefully will be starting on the intercooler setup soon to... gotta pull the front bumper and get some measurments of just how large i can go without modding the bumper... and i have a few ram-air idea's for the turbo... so we'll see what comes of that...
still working on tracking down some oil control rings... i did get my piston set but they were missing one of the steal rings for the oil control rings for each piston... so i'm needing 4... i think i'll go down to the local speed shop and see if they can match them up since i cant buy single rings from ford...
i should also get the manifold cleaned up tommorow or the next day when i get some more time... so everything is coming along nicely.
thanks for the support everyone... im hoping to make quite a bit of progress in the next 2 months.
