Oooooookay, update time
Almost done making the parts GLT pay for itself. Just need to sell the virgos and interior bits and drag her off to zee crusher, or sell empty shell for derby or racecar.
Will be pulling the m46 soon, then will pull the b230f/aw71 from the 242.
Need to replace the water pump, too.
Parts in hand:
Ported 90+ manifold
T3/T4 with 0.48 hotside and ATP ultimate waste gate
Stock intercooler, pipes, hoses, recirc valve, maf wire extension
Stock 240 oil cooler to replace the diy job that’s on there
Ipd turbo cam, ipd two piece adjustable gear (will swap over, currently on B cam installed)
White 850 injectors (have 8 that will be sent off for testing and cleaning for 4 of the good ones)
3bar fpr
Chipped ecu/ezk
Many gauges
Coolant tees, turbo overflow and wash bottles, and other random supporting bits.
Plus T will be done on the engine stand so I’ll drill the oil return boss rather than mod an oil pan, though I do have a few I can weld a return to if I chicken out. Gonna start around stock boost level until I
Still need:
Turbo oil/water lines
PCV plate and catch can
Down pipe
Wideband
Bronze bushings for m46
Short throw shifter
I’ll keep the aw71 for accumulator mod and for when the m46 dies.
There is a plan B incase time/money becomes a factor:
Simple +T using stock garret, downpipe, and modified turbo exhaust from parts GLT.
