taking the turbo off for awhile

[ssms5411]

So I think I'm going back to non-turbo until I can save enough for some FFF headers. I grinded too much on my pass. header and it leaks so I have to go with some Pacesetters headers since they don't make the RK headers any more. I just want to be able to drive it on F- body club funtions and not worry about something going wrong. I might go back to nitrous with a NX setup for 100 shot.So I'm going to have the GT35R turbo , Tial 38mm wastegate , and Tial 50mm BOV up for sale. Also 2 intercoolers.

Aren't you using the Turbo's hot side off the pacesetters?

Yes, but I have 2.5" V bands so I just need to take off my RK sport headers and install the Pacesetter headers and have them install Vbands on the Y. The under the K is too tight of space and I miss my front 32mm sway bar. I'm thing of using my extra flanges and the RK sport headers and making them FFF headers.

After you sell the all that stuff, and say you sell the rest of your turbo kit, you'd probably be pretty close to just buying a cartuning kit, but you'll lose AC.

Re: taking the turbo off for awhile

those cartuning kits are pretty damn nice. and probably flow amazing but its nice to say you built it yourself.

Nicer to have your car up and running reliably in a weekend IMO.

To each their own. I'd rather build my own.

Thats why I will probably build my own FFH's using the RK sport headers, so I keep my A/C. It will take me sometime but I think I will set the car up for Auto-X while I get them done.
