thats right, i have been sitting on this setup for over a year, and with very little spare money to sink into my personal car im thinking about selling my setup and going back to a t28 so that i can at least get this thing out on the track for a few more months instead of it sitting in the shop collecting dust.

i dont have my mind completely made up so if anyone is sincerely interested email me. $1300 is what im looking to get, if i dont get that i probably will either finish the car with it, or box it up and put it in the cool Sh*t to show the grandkids pile.

Evo8 turbo with aprox 2K on the turboEvo8 Ca18det turbo manifold sch10 304SS this is a one off noone else has one like this , other then the 2 Ka-t versions i have made and neither are leaving dayton ohio lol.

Evo 8 304 SS down pipe with Vband bottom flange, this is thing took me a while to make and is completely hand crafted from pipe and sheet metal. it keeps the wastegate intergrated into the down pipe so no nasty loud open dump tube.

2" hot pipe that was made to bolt up to Greddy style intercooler piping.

oil drain flange and hose

oil feed line and banjo fitting.

not so cool wastegate actuator bracket and actuator

I also have a partial down pipe thats is 3" mild steel that can me made to fit onto a catback, it would have bolted right up to most exhausts, but i have had a custom exhaust since day one with my car, and its been changed over 10times in the last 5years.

the setup has maybe 20hours on it, mostly idling and base tuning time, i drove it around for 4days without getting into boost, it has seen boost only a handful of times. the turbo should be good for around 380-450Hp depending on who you ask, there are a ton of full weight Evos in the 11's on this turbo, it should probably make a 2500lb 240 insane.



Also possibly for sale is my megasquirt complete setup, with the Ford EDIS ing setup using dodge neon coil pack. its been base mapped and i have driven the car a few times on it, the car really just needs a few hours on the dyno and it would be finished, but im really not into it anymore. I will include the complete harness which has been built to be pretty much invisible in the engine bay. It is a megasuirt I version 3 i believe, no daughter chip with a 3bar map sensor, and the EDIS setup.

includes

MS boxEDIS setupmodified pulleyVR brackercoil packIgn modulecomplete Harness I also have a intake manifold that i modified to be used for the GM sensors and deletes everything you dont need, i would like to trade this out for a non modified intake with or with out sensors...

I have pictures in my nico gallery of most of the build of the harness and pulley, ill link them tomorrow. i want around $700 for the complete setup, i know its steep, but this thing should be easy to get up and running compared to starting from scratch like we did.

also have a set of Precision 780CC injectors for sale with very little time on them, never seen over 100hp i would guess to say, 180shipped,

the only way the MS and injectors are forsale is if i can get the turbo setup sold, or i can get a good stock ECU, harness setup, and sensor setup, i am considering a partial trade for the stock setup for the ms setup...

you can email me at [email protected], we have a new shop website and email system, so the old one is no longer valid, just put att jon and i will answer them fast as possible, i only get a few times to check my mail during the day.

also if i missed somthing or its not quite coherent ill try and edit this tomorrow after i get some sleep.

thanks

Jon Rench

MS is a full complete standalone so yes you eliminate the whole engine harness, you only need the lower harness.

Jon, your timing is horrible. I'm in the middle of buying a house right now, otherwise I'd buy this in a hear beat.

If you've still got it in a month, lemme know...

yeah, i know all about my horrible timing! but as of this week it looks like ill be holding on to it a little longer, my horrible timming messed up my master plan to sell a Kade and a beat up hatch to get a nice coupe then flip my current hatch shell for a Sr20det and then i would have two motors and one clean coupe

So now i will just leave the motor in, i will be reinstalling all my turbo parts on monday night and try to get some street tuning in on friday or saturday so i can get it on the dyno the following week. But this setup will most likely be comming up for sale in the near future as i really want to go back to a smaller turbo and a AEM or haltec EMS

If you still have it in a month, you can sell it to me so I can rub it all in Ryan's face.

yeah dude, $99 all freaking day. I was going to throw one on there, but my dad went and put the stocker on while I was in the shower one morning. It took so much effort on his part I just cant bring myself to replace it yet.

SSAC is the "proven" manifold. Get it here for $89 plus shipping, and they even throw in a turbo elbow:

I don't know how well that elbow fits though...

I was going to get a manifold for the hell of it, but I decided against it because I don't want any more lag than my SR turbo will already provide.
