Turbo Maxima VIDEO complete with more shots
For those of you that never got a chance to see my car in full plus the fact that I didnt put many pics up there initially because of the snow we had and my car was dirty from the snow, here is a Video to ease your pain.
BigDogJonx's TurboMax
You can click right on the link or right click and Save As if you like. It is 10mb, sorry for those of you on dialup.
Right now im pushing 5.5-6psi of boost, im going to push it to 10 soon. Maybe once I get the Boost controller I will do that.

No one has really commented yet on the performance of their turbo yet. How does it feel? If you were in my shoes, would you drop the $4K on a turbo or trade up for a 2K3?
By the way, sweet video. I finally got high speed internet so I can watch these things now.

Get the turbo Andy. They are bad a$$! I can install it for you too, the shop I work in specializes in turbo's. You can ride in our shop car (2000 contour SVT turbo), and see for yourself. It has the same powerband as nitrous, but it's there all the time.

Looks awesome Dixit. I'm sure you'll enjoy that badboy.
Get some video or sound clips of your engine. That should be enough music for everyone to hear.

Nice video BigDog. Can you hear the BOV between shifts?
I hope the turbo kits for the 2k2's are just as reliable as the ones for the 2k's and 2k1's. This is going to be a must have mod. Will be interesting to see how much power you can run on the stock fuel system.

02MaximizedVQ: I can hear the BOV when I let off the gas, cant really hear it between shifts since the auto pretty much holds the PSI while it shifts.
Max_Vader_2k: Thanks!
I will by dyno-ing it this weekend, just got to get the SAFC wired up again, and then turn the boost upto 10 and get it dynoed.

It may not be safe, but you have to pay to play. I'm currently pushing 10.3 psi with the turbo on a stock motor.

Just kidding.Did you get his call last night? I don't think he could find your phone number, but we got the FPR figured out. I left before the "fun" part of disconnecting the return fuel line happened.
Hopefully, he finished that last night. I believe the oil lines and finding a PROPER vacuum line from the manifold to the FPR was all that was left besides electronics. Plus, fixing the intercooler brackets, but nothing a few zip ties won't fix.

I told Joaquin to just tee off the vacuum from the FPR.

Kev, Bigmouth front? eeewwww 
I want the Aero kit, now that i got rid of the muffler. Hey I want to know how your dyno goes with your greddy, I want to know if you see yourself choking at top end with it.
Alex: Soon, patience, dyno hopefully this weekend.
LCF: Maximum Tuning vbModed. Seem okay but the 2-3shift seems to hold for 1sec and while the engine is boosting it shoots up the RPMs and makes me think im chewing up the tranny.
10psi will be fine, have faith playa!

The Stillen Aero kit does not provide as much air flow to the IC as I would like. Unless you plan on chopping off the lower portion of the bumper, the opening, IMHO, is too small.The 2.5" will choke it somewhat. I've seen it happen with the 2.87 pulley during the last dyno session. The top end wasn't as linear as with the 3.125.
I'll definitely let you guys know how the dyno goes... I don't have a scanner anymore so I need to find a way of posting up the graphs. Good luck with your dyno!

Jon: Not yet, but hopefully Joaquink lets me get in there. I helped run a vacuum line, trace the fuel lines/locate the return fuel line, and mount the FPR. That's it so far. I'm there to learn more than do anything. He had all the cutting/grinding/cussing on the tubing and intercooler parts done before I got there. Hehe. I'm hoping to show my electrical 'skills' once the boost controller, Fields AFC, and whatever other goodies he has are ready for install.
Dixit: Can't wait!
Kev: The BMB is FUUUUUUGLY! Get the 2K2 front bumper and put an aftermarket/custom grille in it. It has waaaaay MORE airflow than the 2K-2K1. Of couse you have to be a
and will get the BMB. I think it looks alright on a black Max(Dixit), because you can't see all the details. However, your oil cooler and CAI idea sounds interesting.

I just cant see myself getting the BMB front one from Stillen, I would much rather take the Ninja or Sarona style one.
Kev, dont know about it not getting enough air, I only have a 30x6 intercooler, so I think getting a larger kit really wont help much. If I did get a bigger opening, the intercooler would look much smaller than normal. Which might not look as good.
I dont like the Ninja front because of the opening how it has to be custom modified if you want a grille or something behind it.
All these freagin decisions.
