DC2 K24 Turbo Project

I am running the stock manifold I want to try and keep the low end torque because the engine will only be revving to 7400rpm but the angle of the throttle body is a pain.

Yup tell me about it. May have to swap it out for a RBC once turbocharged... Think the turbo will make up for the lack of torque lol. I'm fitting the k20 oil pump soon and will raise limit to 8000k if it doesn't loose power before then.

BTW if you'd like to make two of those sidewinders I wouldn't mind at all! =P

I am thinking of changing to the k20 pump but not sure about revving to 8000k, I might try and make my manifold a centre feed.

Make? Planning on making your own inlet manifold? Brave stuff. Looking forward to that! Centre feed would be great though, short boost lines mean better spooling!

Not really make my own just modify the stock one.
 
Bit of a update, thought I would get the engine bay sorted to test fit the engine so I can see what room I have for the turbo setup.

Yeah we'll smash it right in there!! Did he order some tools too?
 
Just finished putting my rear suspension back together, only have to fit the calipers and anti-rollbar then when the cars done I am going to get the suspension setup and corner weighed.



 
Good work Matt, rears looking ace! Looking forward to having a go in this.
