As I was looking again,
Hats off to them for doing something to make a turbo... They DEFINATELY need to change that intercooler piping(looks like part of an endpost off of a chain link fence!!)They also might want to adjust the sensitivity of the blow off valve(or actually just plumb it back into the intake tract with a CBV, like the Bosche ones on a Porsche Twin Turbo.. so you dont get the big WHEEEEZE-BANG!! but it will run better.... that stalling is due to the loss of metered air when the BOV hits, it appears that they are venting to the atmosphere, and well, there goes some of the air that your EEC is sending signals to pulse the injectors accordingly....
Sned those guys a Corky Bell Book "Maximum Boost", and after they read it, I bet they DEFINATELY would have one sweet ride on thier hands(its like nutra-sweet now.. who needs that artificial crap.. give me SUGAR!!!!
)
But I do give these guys some props(not alot... and hardly any for the guy who gave his car to a bunch of guys who obviously dont have the knowledge(basic forced induction theory, intercooler design(how are they going to get air t that behind a bumper cover??) turbo sizing, BOV vs. CBV,relocation of the Fuse block to WAY tooo close to the turbo exhaust housing, etc....) or tools(heck.. anyone hear of mandrel bends)) for having the gonads to at least try it...
oh well back to work... happy turboing!
(Edit to appear not so harsh...Towards the owner or the shop... I didn't mean to offend anyone if i did..) I think its a good Idea that people are willing to try new things and go along the seldom traveled path, just if something goes wrong, or good with this car, I hope everyone on the list doesn't take it to be the end all be all... thats all... sorry I got on a rant earlier...
