My GT3076R Bugeye Build...
Hello,
I have been working on this pile for a few months now. Collecting parts, making small mods. After having the motor out for 2 months, I've finally begun assembly of my "new setup" so I thought I may go ahead and document it for those who are interested. This is the first time I've pulled a motor from my own vehicle and done all the work, though I have helped others with their projects in the past. The motor consists of:
The old 18G managed a best of 12.60@108 pushing 306/296 on Turbo XS's Dyno. My goal now is 400whp on that same dyno or at least 11 second 1/4 mile passes. I will be updating this thread as I go, and trying to add any useful information I pick up along the way. If you have any questions, let me know. I may even know the answer! As it sits today, 7/5/09:

Today I chased the threads on the block with my nifty chaser tool (see below), cleaned the old gasket remains off the deck, installed the ARP studs, installed the new gaskets (OEM) and torqued down the heads. ARP Studs: Threaded into the block only "hand-tight." (I used the little end of an allen key.) New OEM Head Gaskets: Heads Torqued: Last edited by CKxx; 04-26-2010 at 02:18 AM. |

Sorry, no v-band housing. It is a newer GT housing (T3 inlet/GT outlet), though, and not the older T-31. I'll have pics of it posted by next weekend, hopefully. I plan to re-install the motor at that point.

Sweet - .82 housing should be bitchen' on the 2.0 - Nice flow and moderate lag!
I've always used a tap for chasing threads... But that looks to work just as good. What heads are those? -Jerod |

Regular EJ205 with porting from DPR, as well as the other parts mentioned. A gentleman in Puerto Rico had the same 264's in a 10-flat STi, so I figure they should work pretty well. |

This build looks awesome, and I'm betting you meet or exceed your spool expectations.

More fun today. Drilled and tapped my Borla Manifold for for the EGT gauge, then wrapped that beast, as well as the Perrin up-pipe. Wrapped Mani: Following that I installed my cams, and test fitted it all, along with my intake manifold. I was afraid that the turbo inlet would not clear my Old-School Perrin fuel rails, but that ended up not being an issue due to my 3" tapered turbo inlet. A full 4" inlet will NOT clear these rails, for the record. I also found out that with the 2.5I manifold I'll need to either 1) remove the intake manifold gasket alignment dowels, or 2) grind away some of the base of the manifold itself. I tried to yank the dowel, but that sucker was stuck, so it looks like I'll be grinding the manifold. Last edited by CKxx; 04-26-2010 at 02:18 AM. |

Make sure you paint the header wrap really well before you go putting the engine/exhaust piping in the car.
Mine just plain disintigrated form all the heat/cooling and moisture evaporation. |

I had the same problem with those rails, i was able to order another side from Perrin and run both in the front of the TGV's. Id look for new rails at this point.

Looks good, but why the egt probe in the #4 cylinder instead of the #3?

Heck, I even purchased one or two of my parts from someone who blew cyl4 and was parting out the car. EDIT: As far as work done today...not much. I did drop off my PS line at the hydraulic shop so they can make a braided stainless model for me. I also ordered a whole mess of these press-connect pneumatic fittings (2 can be seen on top of manifold, above). They are made to operate around 150psi, and won't blow off until over 300psi. I'm going to run them for my Wastegate, EBCS, BOV, and FPR. Last edited by CKxx; 07-08-2009 at 12:46 AM. |

Nice and refreshing change vs the usual 2.5 builds. Bet it revs hard when done!

I'm in! I'm doing a similar build myself but not quite as large of a turbo. This might be a peek into the future.
