Next bolt the oil drain to the block where the original one goes re-using the metal gasket, make sure the braided line is pointing up and that you screw the adaptor into the alloy block using the taper thread or it WILL leak

Now is a good time to clean up the block (did mine just before i left for home) cause its a lot more exposed than with the twin boat anchors fitted !!!!

As soon as the cams and pulley and springs and head studs get here i'll throw it back together and take more pics , tommorrow i'll get some of the fuel system mods .

Your -10 oil drain hose is the wrong direction!! The 45 degree is supposed to be connected to the turbo. The straight portion is connected to the oil pan.

 

Pics look great =)

 

Edited to say oops i see what you mean now , i thought it looked a bit funny when i bolted the other adaptor on the turbo , now i see why !!!!!

Did you have to angle grind down the exhaust manifold studs?

Ian the reason you have to grind the studs is that because the header is now tubular and larger bore as you place it over the studs the bottom ones allmost touch the header thus you need to take a bit off so you have clearance , you will also have to put all the bottom nuts on before you put the top nuts on. :thumbs:

dude, it would be interesting to see the weight between the stock twin set up and the BL kit if you get a chance??

 

Have you seen this site , Terry?

 

It lists the weights of the stock turbo assembly and the equivalent Boostlogic parts. The turbo they weighed is a PT63.

 

It would still be good to get confirmation though.

 

Regards,

Very nice pictures dude :cool:

 

I'm going AT/Single too. I bought the (small) BoostLogic T61 (.68) and the tranny-upgrade with a 3800 stall.

Hope everythink works well.

Ah, another good pointer, I hadn't thought of fittiing the two pumps into the baffle area of the tank, did you have them side by side, staggered, or in a line? (where in a line = one nearer the front of the car, one nearer the rear)
