Intake setup showed up.

Crazy off the wall question.

I'd like to get all of the turbo fab, etc done before I take it for JD to work his magic. It's a pretty serious drive to get there from the house.

Does anyone know of a "pipe" setup that I could put in place of the turbo and down pipe so I could just remove the turbo to drive it up there?

Something with a T3 flange going to a 90 that would then bolt up to the down pipe?

With the mountains between there and my house it would be near impossible to keep it out of boost.

Sounds easy to fab to me, grab another t3 or t4 or whatever flange a 90 degree elbow and the matching vband piece, make the same as turbo hotside.

Internal wastegate or external? Wire the gate open. Will never go into boost and you won't have to fuck with all that nonsense.

Pull the center of the turbo out and slap a piece of sheet metal over the hole in the hot side.

I was gonna say the same thing if he couldn't wire the wg open.

Shit, didn't think about that. Will I have to worry about overspeeding it?

You shouldnt if the gates wide open and your not doing wot rippers. If it does then just plate off the center section of the turbo like Tim said. Shit I would even leave the oil feed and return hooked up to the turbo if you have enough slack to pull it out of the way. That way when you get there just pull the plate slide the turbo in and clamp the charge pipes on.

I threw a soup can lid in the outlet vband when I broke my intercooler so I could cruise it. Might have kept the turbo from spooling idk. Didn't really care much at the time

Working on a deal for a sy/ty downpipe and a decent intercooler now.

Header wrap for downpipe ordered. Plug wire heat boots ordered. Still trying to find 6 24 lb.hr injectors to use until I get it up to be tuned.

Anyone have any 6AN connectors and line laying around?

Some other stuff I have:

Precision SC6152S
Adj. Wastegate actuator
Adj FPR
In box:
Flanges
T-rex inline with wiring kit.

Almost forgot, ordered an ultra-flo welded to replace the dynomax turbo muffler. Figured it could use the extra flow with the turbo.

255 in tank pump and intercooler on the way.

Yes!!!!!!!!

Brand new OEM sy/ty downpipe on the way.

Did the yearly dist cap and rotor button yesterday. Also swapped out the Dynomax super turbo muffler for an ultra flow.
