View Full Version : Batlground: Prelude Turbo



Batlground
07-21-2009, 04:16 PM
This Prelude came in today. Turbonetics Turbo, Drag turbo manifold, Treadstone FMIC and piping, custom downpipe and W/G dump, Tuning.

Updated: Install complete. Tuning Tomorrow. Dyno numbers posted then. Some things that we did after the pics were taken, Fire sleeve covering the wastegate lines, boost controller lines cut to length. The w/g dump looks close to the oil return in the pic but its a bad angle. There is actually a couple inches there.

in progress. not finished yet. Crazy how cars run in groups. we see it here all the time. 1 240 comes in and then we have 4. 1 evo comes in and then we have 3. Weird that they have been the same color.

Anyways, i think we should make a thread called "ADVERTISING AND MARKETING" put it in the LIFESTYLE or WALLSTREET forum and lets all go discuss over there.

Clean car BTW

anymore pics of the car?

Vteckidd
07-21-2009, 07:14 PM
Constructive criticism too, you may want to wait until the car is done so you can take final pics and then post them. Theres nothing crazy about the back end of a prelude, and an empty engine bay, with a intercooler sitting on a table.

I mean if you are doing something gangster like a Full Race turbo kit, or a big kit on a supra, or something cool like that, thats one thing to do a build thread.

But an average turbo kit on a clean car, may want to do more of a "completed" picture set and thread, then some below average photos.

Matt take some better pics man LOL

What time and place Chnco?

Well thank you for the advice Mike. I was pretty clear in the thread discription that the car is not finished. Just because you may not be impressed with whats going on, I am displaying what we have going on over here. What is wrong with showing the progress of a job?

Again this isn't the "lets impress Mike" forum. If you dont have a comment that pertains directly to the subject of the thread stay out of my posts.

Maybe you've seen three of the same setups is because white is one of the two best colors, the other being blue, of course.

Its turbonetics, its prob a T3/T4, its a 400whp-500whp car MAX. WIth a built motor

Nothing is wrong, but im explaining the comments made by Mach N' U because it seems you guys are getting slammed a lot lately from Audio/Video to this section. I was just politely telling you that spamming the board with mediocre pics may not be the best thing to do. But hey its your dollar.




Again this isn't the "lets impress Mike" forum. If you dont have a comment that pertains directly to the subject of the thread stay out of my posts.

Funny how you posted in my 06-08 SI thread , but i didnt get upset. I was actually polite in here. ANd you are right, this doesnt impress me, it isnt innovative, its a prelude, a run of the mill turbo kit, and an intercooler on a table. Im sposed to get excited about that?

LOL

No need to impress me, seems like you guys are plenty busy with your projects and fake dyno graphs ;)

Its a public forum, ill do whatever the fuck i want :)

Dont get your hopes up, i have nothing to gain from this. I dont own a labor business, i was merely making and observation, and i was pointing out that people may be more interested if there was more detail.

Mike what I said in your thread was relevent to the thread. You are in my thread trying to give us marketing advice. I got some advice for you now. Stick to what you know best, workin that hustle. Keep burning bridges as you go. You want to try to stand toe to toe with us but your not in the same ring. Keep looking from the outside in.

Imagine my name wasnt VTECKIDD and it was "Insert generic IA username here"Look. I'm not here to fight and I think I have been pretty civil when it comes to all of the not so becoming posts we have had to deal with lately (our fault or not, irrelevant in what I am trying to say). I don't agree with everyone's 2 cents and that is my prerogative.

Personally, I don't see the big freaking deal, but everyone wants to make one out of it, so here I am having to try to explain ourselves in the best way I know how.

We are trying some stuff out. We are used to racing or being out on the streets hanging. Is that ok with everyone? May we have your permission to try some things without getting our asses jumped on by everyone? I'm prepared for the answer to be no.

That's not Dan, but none of us have really REALLY been rude to you after what happened. I think all of us handled that pretty well also. You know what you are doing. I just happen to deal with it a little differently. You know what happens when you get Dan fired up. He gets to building cars to prove a point. He doesn't really post on the internet about it.

I just want you to know that I am not going to play the tit for tat game with you on your "innovative" and other BS comments, so some advice from me to you on that...you might want to save your fingers. Since this has now turned into an advice thread.

You dont need my permission , have at it. good luck

I would respond but it serves no purpose. I have no intention of going "toe to toe" i dont own a labor business. Im doing fine doing what i do. You obviously are doing fine doing what you do.

Good luck seriously whoever you are

I have no intention of going "toe to toe" i dont own a labor business.Brandon doesn't own one either, but he takes a lot of pride in what he does and has more loyalty than anyone on this board would know anything about ;)

So probably 300ish on the street? that is a good number. 300 is fun and pretty safe. You dont start really breaking stuff until 400 give or take.

The boost controller is a turbo XS piece. Not what I would recommend but we will see what it does. We are using the fire sleeve just for precaution. it doesn't hurt thats for sure.

one of those 2 stage things?

i believe im going profec-b when the money comes. what are your thoughts on that?

batlbrandon
07-24-2009, 03:06 PM
Yeah one of those 2 stage thingys. profec B spec 2 is the best for the money and easiest to use. Its what I run.

We decided that since the intake pipe was brushed and the rest of the I/C pipes were polished that we would match everything. this is how it turned out.

batlbrandon
07-30-2009, 10:46 AM
So update on this car. The customer had brought it to us ( not running) to put on a new turbo kit. We did some bolt ons and we did some custom fab. Get the car running and it is chugging pretty bad. we trimmed out some fuel at idle to get it run a bit more smoothly and there seems to ba an awful lot of blow by. A lot. We arent feeling very good about putting it on the dyno and wanted to check compression. Wah wah wah 30 psi on #3. So we are now in the process of building him a new engine. Significant scoring on the cylinder walls on #2 and #3 cylinders. Looks like they had been washed down by an improper tune previously. Also unsure if the pistons had the FRP coating. more to come.
