Welcome to Joryn's Ride.
85 Dodge 600
2.2L Turbo Intercooled

05/10/03
Finally got around to plumbing the intercooler on my beast. so now it is officially a TII engine. I used a 1g talon ic and plumbed it the ghetto way using pvc mostly. It works however and i must say that intercooled 14psi is a fun thing to have. Will get pics soon i hope. just need a Digi-cam

My ported/polished head, mostly assembled and ready for reinstallation:

The heart of it all: modified AiResearch(Garett) turbo to work with intercooler and Blow Thru setup

Installed!!

more pics will be up soon. when i get this thing cleaned up and ready to go.

UPDATE!
Car is now up and running. Final tuning process is underway. will post images of Final car setup(way more cramped in there then initially thought) when i get a chance. Its finally boostin again :)

UPDATE AGAIN!
Engine developed a knock and had to be put down. #4 Cyl was toast due to a connecting rod that was resized improperly. Gonna beat the shop that did it :( . So ended up getting really lucky and found a whole engine for 450. with a head(that i dont need). Heres the pics.

Yep thas a NEW block. Fresh Reman'd unit!

good shot of the deck with the .020" over pistons

It's Been Ages
Well i figured id better get some more info up here, as ive done a fair bit to the car. Its been successfully intercooled and now has some track runs behind it, with an all time best of 14.659@91.77 MPH with a 2.228 60 ft time. i was quite happy :) not bad for a little 600.

some shots of the current setup(its dirty i know, but its not about looks now is it ;) )

Night shot of i/c behind grill

Track prep, yes i look like a dufus :) Notice the Exposed intercooler. nice eh?
