Menta Addiction Motorsports Thumper turbo kit for msp/p5/protege...

[azian6er]

Yep. Got the rest of everything in the mail today from Beau over at MAM.

I have been playing with the kit ever since it came in at 6 pm just fitting stuff up etc...

The pla is to have the kit on tomorrow, and runing by tomorrow night. Not sure if it will get done or not, but we will try our hardest.

I have a few pics for you all just to show you all of the work Beau is capable of.

I will have tons more pics tomorrow along with writing up an install guide in a bit.

Enjoy the sneak preview... the main attraction comes tomorrow night :)

beau is the man

[spicynamja]

Damn, that's beautiful work. I'm scared of your car...

[Bhamsan]

I'm going to be sitting here waiting for more pics of this thing installed.

Where is the FMIC? Is it possible to get the midpipe and downpipe done in 3"? Any reason for only 2.5"?

We are working on a 3" right now.The reason for the 2.5" is fitment over the 4bolt flange and room.We are working on a 3" V-band DP setup and midpipe.

Everything should be good to go by wednesday.

[Mr. Win]

damn that hawt as hell... love to see that thing. And my apartment complex would have fit over that ha lucky bastard. fuel rail or anything?

[azian6er]

damn that hawt as hell... love to see that thing. And my apartment complex would have fit over that ha lucky bastard. fuel rail or anything?

yeah luckily they arent giving me any shit lol.

The fuel rail is sitting up on the drivers side strut mount, you can see it there, but it wont be installed for another couple days until Beau can get me the rest of the fittings for the line.

I will be running one though.
-Bryan

[Mr. Win]

oh yea i see it, damn thing look like another torque wrench... How are you going to fit 3 fans on there? As fas as ems or fuel/timing control what are you using??

[azian6er]

haltech e6x ems for now until beau gets the aem all done. IF i like that, i will undoubtedly go aem.

-Bryan

[Spooled]

Wow!

[azian6er]

few more pics from today. got the dp mounted up and wastegate, placed the PWR radiator in, placed the sweet ass 12' spal fan on the radiator and then didnt ge tto much else. As you can see it was raining most of the day and i only got a little done today.

All that is left is to do the timing and connect some electrical connectors and wire the wideband 02 sensor in the dp and thats about it.

Im hoping for a start tomorrow or wednesday.

[Tommy1005]

very nice.......what are you doing with the old kit? And will you be selling your Haltech if you go with the AEM? If so, I would be interested in buying all of it from you. PM me if this sounds good to you.

Tommy

[azian6er]

Tommy

actually, my old kit is already sold to another member, viral override. The haltech I will sell before i go Aem, so I will definately keep you in mind.

When the aem is ready, i will undoubtedly go with that and sell you the haltech.

-Bryan

[BlkZoomZoom]

uuummm I think the timing belt goes on the gears.

[azian6er]

uuummm I think the timing belt goes on the gears.
(mj) yeah i figured lol...

[Tommy1005]

that would be great.......hope to hear from you soon, this car desperately needs some tuning.

[EvilMSP]

It's a new loose belt system...

[Mr. Win]

ahh new radiator, it all makes sense now. Id say thats not a bad place to be at all after a rainy days work...

[Aricjm15]

why did you take the cam's out?

[Mental Addiction]

why did you take the cam's out?
He blew his headgasket and knocked a chunk out of the head.So he had the head repaired and machined.

[Aricjm15]

isnt that going to bring the compression up some?

[Mental Addiction]

isnt that going to bring the compression up some?
He has a built motor.Yes, depending on how much was surfaced off it will bring it up .1 or so.

[hawaiian_msp]

omg! that kit is beautiful! keep us updated and keep up the good work. -mike

[azian6er]

Well got the rest of everything squared away today. Car is running but running super hot and lean. I need to adjust the afrs and look at the timing a bit to make sure everything will be fine.

Anyways, here are some finished engine bay pics. I will have some better ones yet to come...

(humpleg)

[azian6er]

lol haltech crank signal wire lol. It does look out of place you are right. i will take care of that soon.

-bryan

[RyanJayG]

now, log off, and tune tune tune... I want vids of you running 12's by tomorrw ;)

[pdhaudio83]

omg thats the LEAST of his worries :p

eck, my motor needs to be rebuilt.

[pdhaudio83]

wheres the mazagine coverage?!?

[alexlitov]

you are running low on coolant?

[pdhaudio83]

LOL its empty.

[Tommy1005]

where'd you get the strut-brace, that thing looks awesome

[pdhaudio83]

DG Motorsports. i believe he added the decal on it himself. looks good!

[SP33D]

Well if theres no coolant that might explain why things are running super hot... :) lookin good!

[pdhaudio83]

LOL thats true!

[jrodhotrod]

Damn Brian, looking good. Nice to see the Thumper in action.... If only I had money to do everything over again like you. ha ha.

[Spooled]

Bryan, are you still using the 440 WRX injectors? What duty cycle are they running at when you are leaning out?

[Spooled]

Also, did you check the thermostat before you put everything back together? Hopefully it's not damaged. Are the fans coming on enough? Of course, running lean will up the temp a lot.

[MoJoeTCM]

My God, i know what i am saving up for, i wonder how much it cost to do this yourself. I don't know how to tune but the majority of this is bolt on correct?

[MoJoeTCM]

I see that the kit is capable of producing 500 plus hp but how efficient is that FMIC? I would think you would need a larger one to get every ounce of power correct?

[Mental Addiction]

The current intercooler will support 500HP.We are a larger intercooler for those wanting more, however ou have to cut the bumper support to make it fit.

[MoJoeTCM]

more......i can't even fathom more than that on a 4 cly motor. I am not familiar with installing kits....

What do you recommend purchasing along with this kit (Clutch, internals, Exhaust)?

[RyanJayG]

clutch, internals, exhaust, EMS (the AEM is the best ;) ), and possibly new coils and CDI box depending on how much power you really want.

ofcourse incidentals like gaskets and bearings need to be replaced when rebuilding as well.

[daedalus]

this thing running yet??? WE WANT SOME UPDATES!!! Oooo and how bout a vid of this moster?!

[MoJoeTCM]

gosh i want to see this car running so bad! I wonder if it can hang with a modified 300 zx TT, or even a supra....

[spicynamja]

You are a bad person. Evil. You are probably going to be the fastest MSP on the board... if you can keep your tires from spinning all the way through 3rd!

[Mental Addiction]

Bryan has the car running.He had a timing belt jump a few teeth and since then has fixed the problem.Bryan and Jamie(Tekkie) have been working on it for the past few days getting it ready for some serious power pulls. Big thanks to Jamie for helping.Right now they are working on getting the Haltech reinstalled.

[Mr. Win]

very nice... did he have to basicly make a new map? Just curious how that worked out.

[Bhamsan]

Oh man, I want one now! I wonder if my girlfriend would let me buy it?

Side Note: I knew a guy who drove a 93.5 TT Supra whose girlfriend bought him a new turbo for their anniversary, which costs about $5k. Now I'm thinking, he'd better get her a huge rock when he proposes.

[pdhaudio83]

damn, must be a MASSSSSSSIVE turbo!

[Bhamsan]

He's putting down about 600whp on pump 91 octane gas. It's pretty damn big, but has some serious lag.

[azian6er]

car is running!!

i will be tuning it up here this week witht he haltech and good things to come. Vids too lol...

i will post new pics very soon.

-bryan

[casper]

Probably a GReddy T78 or T88(H) upgrade kit for the price and power you decribed..



sorry..

/threadjack


Car looks tits! (rockon)

[Bhamsan]

No, it wasn't a GReddy. I totally forgot what turbo it was, because I really haven't talked to this guy in about 3 years.

[MoJoeTCM]

i just shat in my pants, amazing, i wish you could do more than one gear tho, show the true power...

[FSDET]

how does it pull ?

[FSDET]

very nice clips cars sound MEAN... did u cut alot of ur bumper beam to fit that IC

[Sixmil]

Damn...thats crazy. Car must pull like mad now.

-Six

[BlkZoomZoom]

That wasn't very fast...... did you run it yet?

[azian6er]

That wasn't very fast...... did you run it yet?


lol not yet. you really crack me up man. I was demonstating the sound of the turbo/ bov for the camera. I didnt proclaim the video to show the utter speed of the car.

the car does pull good. I am running stock ecu with 9 psi on that turbo. 9 psi!!! 9 psi doesnt ieven spool that thing. When i get it tuned for 17-20 then you guys will see the speed.

Just stay posted.

And i cant run it in the winter lol
(k)

-B

[MoJoeTCM]

azian6er so you are only running 9 psi? What did you do so far as internals and clutch.....did you have to replace the shafts? I am just wondering since the hp is past the stocks capability of handling that amount of power. Well, that is, once you up the boost....

[BlkZoomZoom]

I watched the video with no sound, so I didn't hear all that. I just saw a slow drive-by. lol

[nattyboy513]

daddy likes... looks like im NEVER going to be done pouring all of my money into the msp. its a love and hate relationship
