the kit will consists probably the same as the one for the probe MMI is selling. Maybe details can be discuss with Abe about it.

ModernMotoringInnovations · October 11th, 2005, 4:44 pm

The Kit will include the following:

Headers
Up pipe
Downpipe
Intercooler Piping (w/ Greddy Type S flange)
Intercooler
Couplers and Clamps

We do not include a turbo or wastegate, b/c some of you guys out there want to use different size turbos and we want to give you the option of picking your own size turbo. Dont get me wrong we can add in a Garrett turbo, wastegate, and a greddy BOV for an additional cost. But we hope to run the bulk buy on following items above.

*We hope to have more information on the kit later this week. Stay tuned!*

Hope ill be able to swing it by the law with this turbo, then im for sure going to buy it sometime in the future if its not a limited offer

Have a few questions though...

Not the most important thing, but i drive a lot and the fuelprizes are getting rediculusly high, so hows the fueleconemy with that setup?

Allso i remember reading a post that you had problems with the engine running to hot and no way to cool it, did you fix that problem?

And im no turbo mechanic guru or something like that, so for dumb people like me

Whats needed to get this all up and running fine?

The kit of course plus turbo, BOV and wastegate but what else?
somekind of enginemanagement, i guess the stock ECU wont do? a 195 Walbro fuelpump plus AFPR and maybe bigger injectors?

I'll try to answer as many questions as possible.
I did ran a little hot but not too much but that was on 20psi !! you guys with stock engine won't have a problem with that. You don't need an aftermarket ecu to run that. Stock ecu is fine with the help of a fmu or add. injectors to up the fuel with boost. For the k8 guys 220cc should be fine (kl engines injectors) for other guys with kl millenia 280cc ecu's will work good for around 8-9psi.
you'll need to mod the cross member in order to have downpipe pass through there. you'll need aftermarket fans too mounted on the other side of your rad. a walbro 255lph fuel pump, think that's all I can think off now.

My suggestion though is getting a megasquirt built (or build it yourself), this way no fmu is needed and no vaf either. You can get a really good tune with it and will make your engine last longer and with more power too !

Thanks for answering those questions BabyBlue....I have been real busy at the office today. I will also try answer all questions in a timely manner.

Just curious, is the turbo only being driven off of 1 bank of cylinders or is it working with the exaust of all 6?

babyblueMX3 · Post by **babyblueMX3** » October 15th, 2005, 12:57 pm

working on the 6 cylinders.
primaries joining into one (3-1) then each into 1 again (2-1)
so that's

Will this fit my Stock V6 if I have my battery relocated, a/c and cruise taken out?
