<FONT COLOR="blue">EDIT: decided to add some info about parts that would affect clearance in the engine bay.

manifold & turbo: Revhard & T3/T04E
intercooler: Revhard backdoor IC
radiator: Full-Race.com PWR shorty EG
crossmember: Full-Race.com
engine mounts: old school HCP</FONT>

I've changed a lot of things since these pics were taken. My TIAL WG is gone and I now have a Turbosmart Ultragate that sits right on the manifold. I also sold my T3/T04E and bought an SC61. I'll probably be upgrading to a Precision 350HP IC and 2.5" IC piping. Then of course upgrade to an EL manifold like Spoolinperformance. And then after that...well you get the idea.

Blueshadow, your turbo setup is pretty cool. Its messy but who cares. How'd u do the backdoor intercooler? Is that custom or did u buy it that way?

bump for more turbo setups

Highly doubt that. Your talking about barely any room to work with.

How's that Sc61 working for you?

here is mine all torn apart........One thing i did notice is that most of the half wide radiators people are using, have a wicked gangsta lean. Spend the $ for this

Mani-------------Drag log.........switching to a Full Race
Turbo------------t3/t4......switching to a gt 35
Rad--------------stock.....switching to a Full Race half wide

Your radiator is full race?

That looks like a stock radiator, not the full-race alum rad.

I quess the full race x-member sits a lil lower than my Z10. I couldnt fit the civic half wide in there without the lean. But im pretty sure the full race radiator will fit my Z10 bars

Take careful consideration of which manifold you pick. With the way your radiator sits now you will have a hard time fitting a tubular manifold.

It is a Revhard 2C kit, that's how they do their piping. The first pic of my engine bay was halfway through the install. I didn't worry about tucking any hoses away, I just hooked the up the easiest way possible so I could check and make sure it would run. After the install I cleaned it up a little bit.

I think in the future I might upgrade to a air to water IC like the PWR barrel AWIC. With no FMIC to worry about I might be able to run a full length radiator that is a little shorter and put it where the FMIC used to sit. Just an idea I had though, not really sure if I wanna go through with it.

im still waiting on my full-race/pwr radiator to finish up my setup. maybe turbotommy can clarify it (don't you work with full-race?) but first i hear that pwr is holding up full-race with the materials and now full-race is having fitment issues on the cars that are turboed? im not totally sure why now this is becomming such a problem since the radiator has been out for months, but maybe now theres issues popping up and they are trying to resolve them. ive nearly waited 5 weeks now and still no radiators are being shipped out. i just want my radiator so i can post pictures of the final product

A Spoolin log should work, as would a DRAG, REV-Hard, Inline Pro. Should work. I would take some measurements and really research it. If you were thinking of a Ram horn or One-Fab, I would say forget it, too close. There is nothing worse than getting a manifold that doesn't fit, then pipes that don't fit....and on and on. GL.

Its an MDF manifold I picked up a few years back from a referal by Beau at HMT

Here is a link to his old B16 turbo setup...

http://www.homemadeturbo.com/t...rx_2/

I'm working on a new intercooler that will fill that opening much better as well as better performance. It will be a verticle IC, similar to this



I'm in the process of molding some custom end tanks right now that I will weld on later.
