Nice base car you got there, are you planing any power upgrades or you stick for the look?

yeah sorry about that, i would have but i wasn't sure if everyone would be able to understand me or not, plus i didn't want to break any rules or anything, my romanian buddies here weren't very clear as to just how well you guys over there know english

i'm doing the entire package, its gonna have show and go as us fat americans like to say

, at the moment i'm working on the turbo system, which i'll post pictures as soon as i can, i just ordered my oil feed line, and next pay check i'm going to order my oil return line, once i have both of those i'm going to actually install the turbo itself, because the Greddy front mount i have will already be installed on a freshly painted (black) core support.

i'm trying to do performance first and looks last just because in the past i always did looks first and then i ended up with a very awesome looking car that was pretty slow

- and i always ended up getting tired of it and getting rid of the car before it was fully complete, and then regretted it. so i'm doing this differently this time around but sometimes i have no money and i get anxious so i'll do little things here and there to tide me over until i can get back to business

It's typically for them to feel more "americanly" than romanian so...
I wonder why they don't know, that in Romania you can comunicate in english?!

They are born in America or they've been there for such a long time?

no they definitely were born and grew up in romania, they are just really hard to get details out of when i ask them about stuff like that. i am still getting to know them too, i've only been where i am at for about a year now so we are all still getting to know each other, maybe thats why

Compression : 9.2:1 - i bought this car to be my project and was going to do a jdm d15b swap + jackson racing supercharger but they discontinued the JRSC along time ago, so once i saw my buddies car and saw how easy it was to boost one of these i decided to do it cause i've always wanted turbo.

i'm not gonna build the engine or sleeve it or anything cause its a very low end engine that is nothing special, and i had planned on doing a swap and stuff before so i bought this turbo kit off my buddy for cheap, then eventually if it blows i'll part it out sell stuff etc and swap in a b16 like i had originally planned.

in a nut shell: i hate to waste anything so until this motor has a major failure or something i'm just gonna rock the single slammer with a snail and hopefully i can finish all the other stuff on the car and the engine will take the 10psi of positive manifold pressure. its only a garret T3 so its a VERY small turbo and @ 10psi on such a small turbo its not moving alot of CFMs like a bigger turbo would be (if the turbo was bigger i'd drop it to 7-8lbs boost and still get the same HP output

(10 psig which in romania or metric would be about .68 BAR....i think )

i just took pics on my cell phone, so they will be pretty bad but i'll post them up anyways, i cant find my camera

thanks, i knew you would like them so i rubbed some dirt on them just to make them extra dirty for you LOL

andi_cimpean · 26-08-12, 19:15

Tell me, your work car is called Mercedes or Dodge?

I know for a fact that is called Dodge in your country and you can find the whole kit to rebadge it. Like the Merc in "American Pickers" if you know the show!

P.S. How much did you pay for that GReddy? or how much is it?

you are correct, its a mercedes badged as a dodge and its a giant piece of crap, pretty quick off the line but it has no mid-range or high end, its built for europe so here in south florida when it gets super hot it cannot take the heat so it overheats and cuts power on me, then i'm stuck going sometimes 60mph on the freeway where everyone is going 80mph - i hate that truck but it gets the job done and i dont pay for anything

i got it for free off of my buddies old turbo sentra that blew up. it was sitting in a garage for a long time and he had paid about $600 US dollars for the full catback system. i just have the muffler cause the piping was for a different car.

so it would run you about 184.96 Leu ( i think thats right... 1 Leu = 0.30826 U.S. dollars. i took $600 x 0.30826)

600.00 USD = 2,149.19 RON + shipping
