Etak28's 5sfte, UPDATE: Engine is Done... Start early on offers for upcoming part out Options

[Etak28]

Yeah, so I've been on this site for around two years now learning what I can from others builds and I think it's about time me to start mine. It's going to go fairly slow since I'm a freshman in college at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Daytona Beach, Florida. I'm far away from home and pretty broke, but we'll see what I can do!

Alright, so originally I was planning on buying Alan's entire setup and 3sgte, however, I'm financially unable to so what I've decided to do is to begin piecing together a turbo kit for my stock 5sfe.

I began this morning by buying my intercooler piping...



It's just the Ebay 2.25 CXRacing Piping kit. $109


I already have my intercooler that I'm getting from a friend...



It's a Godspeed 24x12x3. $100



Now I'm debating on what type of 3sgte manifold I want, pretty sure tubular

and what turbo I want, however, I'm pretty sure I want an external wastegate.

I'm open to suggestions tho!


UPDATES TO COME........

So here's what I've been doing.......... Buying, buying, buying

Here's my part list that is racking up still most of it hasn't gotten here yet:



This is the manifold, wastegate adapter, and Garret Turbo T3/T4 46 trim with a 0.63 A/R exhaust housing and a 0.50 A/R compressor housing with a 90 degree outlet I bought from 6strngs.



Downpipe I bought from ebay.



BOV adapter pipe I bought from ebay.



This is what I'm most excited about, it's the Synapse Synchronic BOV, youtube it, I bought. It's supposedly cheaper and much more efficient as far as BOV's go.



Walbro 255 fuel pump



This is the piggyback ecu I bought, Greddy e-manage

Also from Batman, I purchased my entire oil return setup; oil pan, lines, and rubber elbow

Just as pressure2 says in his writeup, I've bought everything for the oil feed line; except the actual lines so far

All I have left to get, for the most part is:

Tial 38mm Wastegate
Actual Oil Feed Line
RX7 460cc Injectors
Prosport Boost/Oil/AFR Gauges
Wideband
Turbo Timer

There's also a few other things I want, but don't have anywhere near the money for right now so I'll wait on them.


More to come!
