Im clearly doing it wrong... Still below 20k brah.

Not including consumables like brake pads and tyres.

Mine doesn't include tyres, pads, maintenance shit either :(

 

Keys were handed to a mate whilst it was in New Delhi. Safe to say the clutch, gearbox and engine seem to be working well.

Gifts run pre Lunar New Year (yes I'm Asian and no I won't go back to my country becasue I'm already here ?).

Still no time to throw it on the dyno yet but AFRs are in the low 11s and timing isn't anywhere even barely close to a stock map (actually used my old map and flatten the timing due to cams).

Without an idle correction rate vs. timing compensation table, getting the car to idle this smoothly wasn't easy! Had to pull a few Microtech tricks haha

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
