First and foremost I have to thank everyone from ASOG and ASEC. Without all them I wouldn't have any of this done to my car.
In March, 2005 a friend of mine and I finally finished installing my turbo setup. I'm running 9 psi of boost made from an IHI turbo that came off a 1988 Ford T-Bird Turbo Coupe. Here's an old pic of my engine bay and a new pic of my engine bay, which do you like better?
I know I have too many colors going on in the engine bay with the yellow couplers and the blue couplers and the orange thermal wrap on the radiator hose. I'm working on getting rid of both the yellow and orange and converting it all to blue.
Here's a closer look at the turbo...
The intercooler I'm using is a Spearco FMIC measuring 26"x6"x3". I know it's not that big but it doesn't take much to cool 9 psi.
Here is the Vortech Super FMU I'm using to control my fuel pressure. I'm using the 2.72" disk which gives approximately a 4:1 rising rate of fuel pressure vs. boost pressure. The SFMU is coupled with a set of 30 lb Accel injectors. The SFMU is mounted where the battery used to be since I relocated it to the trunk to create a little more space in the engine bay.
