[doGGy]

Well guy and girls - i can proudly present another project witch i will try to document / write-up / expain to a smallest details as posible. The project is install of a Turbo kit to a Martin (malpaso) 96' ST celica.

Works begin tomorow - so i will try to write up every single day of work i will be spending on his car, all the jobs what was done, and what things are installed and WHY they are installed + how they work and etc. Hoping to make this write up to be usefull to a people who will be doing the same thing later, and for the people to understand better how things work and etc.

Keep and eye on this topic - cuz it will have lots of info and pics in the long run

As for now - Martin celica is securly standing in my yeard - and Martin is traveling back home with the bus (20h drive oh man.... ), so lets hope the owner will give his response in this topic later

update... Was working like crazy to days in a row - and honestly forgot to take pics of the process... Cuz i was all focused to finish this beast today (but i could not do this... its still needs IC piping..)

Well - here are the pics what i took today of the finished stuff:

Downpipe - had to build my own one from the pipes what i bought:



Finally mounted the oil block with the Oil pressure - so now the oil lines are finally finished:


FPR, Boost controller solenoid installed in the place and all hosed up :



Turbine / Header / Heatsheald is 100% fitted and everything connected:


GT-Four fuel pump installed and goes into its home:


Soldering Injectors plugs + installing injectors (valne cover and intake plenum are removed.)


Finally solved the damn Emanage puzzle - cuz i only had wiring for OBD I, but after some research OBD II has the same wiring pinout, only the wire colors are different from OBD I:


Boost controller found its home in the ashtray :


And the finall shot (blurry a bit - i was a bit shaking cuz it got cold somehow in my garage (some one left doors not closed fully...)


Started the engine, everything works perfectly exept i have one major leak in the Turbo oil supply flange... So i already ordered the new one - tomorow will put it in and finish the IC piping... Friday is the Dyno Day - already ordered a place there... So Its getting to the end finally
