personally, i reckon the SU is a better choice

if you go draw thru, dont run the rising rate port to the manifold just block it up - the carb dont see boost, the manifold does, so its gonna make the reg work and its gonna kill the motor i had that issue with mine..would get to 4500 and just pop and fart and carry on i felt real dumb when i expla...

nah sorry man, it was already running when i got it i never had to stuff around with the jets or the PV only played about with fuel pressure it took some fine tuning of the pressure, but i got there also, you need a rising rate fuel pressure reg too for blow thru - if you didnt know? for ever psi of...

i had a blow thru set up (350 holley), and had no issues with the tuning of it at all (you need to have solid floats and have the carb boost referenced) once i sorted the fuel pressures out, it was great it just lagged waaaay too much it didnt come on boost until 4400 and by the time it was gear cha...

yeah the ext gate is on the exhaust housing
its the "ultimate" spot for the gate apparently

have you compared a 350 Holley to a small weber?
the Holley will win, hands down, every time.

fair enough then mate..
personal opinion i guess

as for blow thru being not worth it, google/you tube jake edwards torana

blow thru is where its pretty much at these days with turbo set ups
lets face it, EFI turbo is a blow thru set up anyways

my question here is:

why waste time and money with a turbo saturn?

red centre, chrome band, the small centre cap, white ring on tyre would be my choice

im was gonna do that with my sports pack rims on my galant
black centre, chrome trim, white wall
but thats not gonna happen now, changed wheel choice

currently looks like this... still with a bit of work to go: http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a153/Turbo2Ltr/1-2.jpg Used to look like this: http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a153/Turbo2Ltr/082709173341.jpg and had one of these in it: http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a153/Turbo2Ltr/100_4279.jpg

i peel mine off as soon as i get a galant

i dont like it, it looks so much better with out it

the GC front looks better but the reason behind the swap is the intercooler size the original question was what is better, a pod or a sock not do i need to seal it etc :) Why did you bother going to single headlight if you are messing with it anyway? Seems a waste of time? why are you bothering to m...

thanks for the comments

i can tell ya this much:
my old VR v6 auto ute, was quicker over the 1/4 mile
with the factory intake pipe/filter/airbox - epic 16.1@129kph
BUT
it was 4kph faster over the 1/4 mile with no pipe, just the TB and thats it - 16.1@133kph

ok, its a GD galant, with an EFI TURBO 2.6 - so its not legal to start with so the legality of boxing a pod, really dont come in to it :lol: basically, the intake pipe will be bolted to the radiator panel, both sides i am making it out of flexy duct, so its got give it.. the pod or sock, is gonna be...

thats cos i wont be running an airbox
i literally dont have the room for it

ok, so im planning/designing a new turbo intake pipe to run cold air straight to the turbo snout (more on this in my thread later on) Opinion Time whats better and why? Redline Sock Filter (commonly used on webers) or Pod Filter discuss :thumpsup: (im not gonna run no filter.. its got a 91mm compres...

from memory, my exedy was mid $400's
cant remember the exact price, but that sounds familiar

exedy ceramic button clutch FTW

i had my galant on a static skid, 4th gear, 10psi, then hit the nos... NO slippage at all

yeah bosch 070 - aka VL Turbo external pump is what most people, myself included, run

i am going to upgrade tho to a bosch 044 once i have mine running

i have seen this car in person
a few years ago my cousin lived in Adelaide, and i went over to visit
we went to the Birdwood Car Museum, and it was there

that was prob 5/6 years ago now
but it looks tuff as in real life

i like how the ad says its a Scorpion

Dave...

lol... i like the GD tail lights more than the GC
i like the GC front more than the GD...

so naturally, GC front on a GD

GD A57 Sports Pack Option, with a GC single head light front conversion

CamB, I find it easier with out the compressors. Just loosly install the strut in ya car and undo the nut. I has no where to go and hurt, once popped just loosen off all the nuts/bolts and remove this is how i do it too.. except, i just rattle the nut off, then jack the car up and proceed to take t...

that turbo kit is 400 U.S, plus another 400 U.S to ship it. $800 U.S is just under $900 in our coin (depending on the rate) so its a lot to weigh up. i would look local. i sold my draw thru kit for $1400, but that had a fresh reco'd turbo factory kits/parts do pop up, and some can be had for a great...

welcome aboard :D the $$ factor comes down to how much you wanna spend really... if you dont mind spending some cash: we have a member here (stealth) who can make just about anything you want so you get a full custom set up - like i have gone with my Galant :P (8ltr plenum, 80mm t/b) or if you wanna...

FR18's are GAY as
they use the 17 centre with an 18 band and look shit house..

FR19's tho
yet to spot FR20's, no comment for those, but no doubt they will be horn
unless they use the 19 centre?
