another 1.6liter engine with a turbo....makes me drool. :cool:

3 Questions biknman, where did you get your pillar pod? Do you think it will fit a MP3? How much?

Ooh and the car is tight.:D :D

Pillar pod
 

Pillar bod is a universal one I just screwed to the factory A pillar trim, drilled some holes for the guage wires, and painted everything black. I think it cost like $20 don't remember.

You run that thing at the track or dyno yet? :D

Dyno and 1/4 number from 1.6T
 

Finally got the car to the Dyno Friday and the little 1.6L with a turbo put out 147.8 whp and 158.7lbs of torque at 6lbs of boost air temp was in the high 90s with 100% humidity at about 100feet above sea level. With just CAI and high flow exhaust was 87hp. Try tuning it to 8lbs of boost but the clutch couldn't take it so I need to get a heavier pressure plate for the clutch before running more boost. FYI with a universal adjustable fuel pressure regulator running about 42 psi I Dyno’d at 133whp then we installed the Vortec 12:1 FMU I got the 147.8whp. The track sucked because of the slipping clutch; first run was no good, second I got a 16.08 after babying it until third gear and then the slipping and burning started at full boost around 4500rpms.

SO if your turboing your Protégé get the check valves right, get an Vortec FMU, and upgrade the clutch pressure plate or the boost you produce will be of no use!:)

Soon as I can get to a scanner I'll scan in the Dyno sheets.

so biknman how goes it...is the turbo running good...you got the new clutch yet???

Turbo running great haven't put the clutch in yet everything working fine though I turn the boost down for now till I get a the clutch installed.

biknman,

Your setup looks good. One thing I would have done different is to get the BEGI Rising Rate FPR. It is supposed to be the best. It is not really boost dependent like the Vortecs, but is vaccum operated. I starts adding fuel right before boost. If the Vortec works, then you are good to go. I can't wait for my BEGI kit to arrive supposedly TODAY!!! Now I just need my car back.:(

biknman where did you install those check valves,and is there any different way to fool the MAP sensor??????
