Also since these pictures I've blow my engine. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683664.gif My haltech went out some I had to send it back to Haltech to be fixed. I got in a rush when I got it back and did a 75% tune... I drove it around for about a week and just happened it went lean for a second and POP!!! It shot 3mm apex seal pieces all in that bish! Ate the turbo and did a number on the rotor and housing.

Well... time for a rebuild. Now getting a S4 block with TII rotors a slight port job and another S4 turbo. Lets see if we can keep this one in one piece! LOL! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

Damn sorry to hear about that...well now you can build it exactly like you want https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png



When you say slight port you mean bridge, right?

Man that really sucks! Sorry to hear about it

texalmighty 04-02-2006 12:38 AM

Ouch.I have never seen a set of housings that badly damaged.Good luck on rebuild.

now you can paint the engine bay black too. Good luck. 244 HP is a lot for such a little car.

rowtareh 04-02-2006 10:49 PM

ouch, that housing and rotor is FAWKED!

247@8psi... never got a chance to up the boost. I planned up it to 10-12. I'm going to be pulling out as much power as I can on the puny S4 turbo this time!



S4 housing, TII rotors, a mild street port, 10-12psi of boost! HOLLA... I'm really hoping for 275-300hp. 275 would make this car perfect!

Ouch. I 2nd the bridge port. . . or half-bridge. . .
