I think the AEM has 2 out puts for tranny control, either on/off so you get the 4 options that the tranny needs to run. I did get a little done on the exhaust manifold.

This is using the same fixture as before, but a little different runner lay out.

Now I just need a waste gate and mount it to the manifold, a little final fit and finish, then finish weld. The runners are equal length for the #'s 1/4 and #'s 2/3 and will be divided all the way up to the waste gate valve seat. The turbo should be in the same spot as before, now I will just need to fab up the sheet metal end tank for the water to air and make a new down pipe.

thats crazy! it looks really good. I wish I could fab stuff like that

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

lookin good man built not bought, saves money lol and its done the way you want it too.

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

Nice job man. Makes me wish I could do that too.

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

Thanks, I will have the intake manifold done tomorrow night, then off to the flow bench to make sure it does what its supposed to.

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

Good, hopefully that configuration will bring the spool down a bit. Still plan on spinning this one to 9500?

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

The return of the White Nissan! :D

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

looking good. It looks like the v2 will bolt on a lot easyer

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

Looking good! I edited your last post, just wrap your image links in img tags and they'll just show up, no clicking required :)

Glad this beast is finally getting some attention.

For those that don't know, this car made 600+whp at a dyno day a few years back:

If you go manual, what clutch will you go with? Seemed that was an issue last time.

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

Super impressed with your fabrication work sir! PM sent, think I found out who I want to make my exhaust manifold for my sled. :D

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

9500-10,000 rpm, I think with the head porting re-work and more shims under the springs the power should hold a little better then before. I knew the clutch would be an issue from day 1, if I go MT I will be doing a twin disk.

As for spool up, between the clutch, leaky bov, and at some point I lost a exhaust rocker and bent the crap out of that valve, it should be a lot better. I also might have to upgrade to a ball bearing version of the GT4202, the standard bearing version will not last forever at high boost. And thanks for looking.

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

When do you plan on having this thing done?

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

Spring/summer of 2010, I hope.

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

Nice I'll be back around then. Hopefully it's making some sick power

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

i will probably be selling my shift box soon if your looking for auto tranny control or going with a paddle setup

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

AEM > Shift box... :p

Looking good John! Glad to see you have the car and big plans again.

Re: 91 Galant VR4
 

Thanks. It turns out we need a pilot that is small enough to fit into the valve guide to do the valve job. Also I need to make an adapter plate to bolt my engine onto the engine dyno. The rear crash bar was removed, and the AEM/MSD mount was redone for a little less shin jabbing for the co-pilot.
