Can you explain the change of turbo decision and the benefits etc. What are the drive characteristics?

Read it again

I did.

Read my question again and see if it's been answered in his post. I think not.

Sorry I thought you had misread and were asking why Justin was changing his turbo.

Hey All,

Just got off the phone with phat gt and he told me how bad his health was.....man the poor guy could of died! Good news is he is on his way to recovery and wish him all the best!

I kinda got a whiff of this project he is currently building/doing...and MAN OH MAN.....you guys wait and see! will be epic!

And lastly was able to score STI Group N Engine & Transmission Mount Kit for $260.00 shipped including all supporting bolts and bits to suit liberty

Will be shipped to springy hopefully by Tuesday / Wed ( thanks phat / senator tony gt )

MICRO UPDATE:

Went and popped in this morning....slowly but surely it comes together....

1/ Turbo is back in and almost in position

2/ Peter found more small oil leaks around the engine and has fixed them.....

3/ Peter went to test the fuel system and found fuel leaks around the injectors....seemed to be occurring around the o rings of the injectors.....they also suspected that maybe my new TGV's were slightly bigger in size.....Anyway in the arvo Bryan aka Brainy popped by this afternoon and spied on my car... Peter has seemed to have solved the problem....I believe putting bigger o rings did the trick...( will confirm ASAP )

4/ Still waiting for fuel pump, perrin intake and headers to arrive....

My next update will probably be on Thursday....wont have time tomz and public holiday on wed...

[jaydece]

MAJOR UPDATE:

I made a quick pitstop at springy...I dropped off a slab of booze for the boys courtesy of me and brainy...for doing great work so far

Out of all the days I forgot to bring the camera!...I used the phone and snapped up some shots....

I saw another liberty in the workshop today??? Hmmmmm........Brainy? What Are You Up To? Huh????.....

The following is now in place or taking shape:

1/ 3" perrin intake pipe is on
2/ Headers Is On
3/ Aeromotive Fuel Pump Is Being Installed ( slight issues with fitment, will have to modify bucket and cradle ) Thanks to gambit for the tips and help
4/ TGV fitment to manifold issue resolved ( they drilled out slightly bigger holes to make it all bolt on )
5/ Injectors fitted with new o rings and fuel pressure holds with no leaks
6/ Oil Catch Can Drained N Checked Fittings / Connections

Also had the pleasure of seeing Aaron and his mate Dee? Picked up his new tune forza and added mods....nice ride! Good catch up people! see you guys on dyno day...

Was good to see you and your car today Justin as well as Brians at Springy Motors.

The forester pulled pretty hard on the way home compared to before the tune, AOS, bov and actuator? cant remember his mods. Dee definetely loves his foz, he was boosting gear 2 in the wet. Pulls hard enough to not believe its still a forester..

Definetely a good catch up even if it was brief, hope your car gets all sorted and ready for dyno day mate. Cant wait to see it when its all finished and ready to go.

[brainy]

I see they still haven't swapped my rims over with yours yet... Or your front seats...

Since you were there, do u know if they have installed the sti short shifter yet? (thx Bruce for your awesome sourcing skills)

Brian? I know they had swapped out my STI seats like you requested?

short shifter? nope don't think they did that yet? They are sorting out the fuel pumps 1st then off to your other mod requests

Glad to see another happy camper from springy......tell Dee to enjoi the new found power but not to brake in his 5 speed gearbox ( expensive fix )
Thanks Aaron.....like I did last time? I will give you front row seats to my puppy once she's done ....hopefully give you a spin on dyno day? see you then!

Awesome, love those seats! Now i'm just waiting on them to finish fixing your car so they can swap your engine with mine.

MINI UPDATE:

Looks like things are coming together....I can slightly see the light at the end of the tunnel....

* forgot camera again....so phone shots *

1/ Fuel Pumps for both my car and brainy are all done and fitted
( mine was easier to fit with less hacking about since my avo cradle/bucket was already modified to fit the previous pump...no wonder it cost me $500.00 )

2/ Perrin intake and related hoses is done

3/ Grimmspeed controller was being fitted as I left

4/ Phat dump pipe has been fixed and modified slightly to avoid future hits to the steering knuckle if it ever does

5/ FPR fitted & AVO fuel kit completed, gauge was being fitted as I left
( Bruce has warned me about the cheap and nasty fittings, hoses and other related misc. in the kit..since this is what he has been experiencing...thanks for the tips Bruce )

6/ I saw all these big boxes sitting next to brainy's car??? I couldn't open them to see what was inside.....but they felt heavy

7/ I will be shortly posting things for sale....atm I have:
- 4x deatschwerks 750cc injectors
- Grimmspeed up pipe
- AVO 245LPH fuel pump

[jaydece]

MICRO UPDATE:

1/ Grimm boost controller complete
2/ FPR finshing touches
3/ Lubz & Fluids: Oil 5-30w Mobil 1 / Nulon Coolant / Western Oil Filter
5/ Phat dump pipe back on ( not a good shot, but with the engine mounts and modified dump its got heaps of clearance now )
6/ Rear diff investigated ( found to be severely way overfilled ) will have to monitor

So looks like the only thing left now is my hi flow center muffler arriving on monday...once thats done...final checks and little touches..then she's on the dyno for prem 100 tune followed by E85 tune

At this stage I'm looking at a tuesday / wednesday finsh? granting all goes well on the dyno runs....and that Brainy car doesn't hog the dyno as well

Icing on the cake: On Friday at around 1pm? myself and brainy are having lunch with the springy family at the workshop

[bass_straitener]

Looking good Justin, and nearly there.

Keen to see the car out of the workshop and on the road.
