Hahahahaha!

[XRATED]

+1 For Ba ha ha ha ha ha ha....

Seriously???

Was that your idea to use a jimmy up exhaust housing or did the bloke who did the work on the car suggest it cost it looks so wicked?

[XRATED]

Maybe try a set of extractors or even a stock NA exhaust manifold on the exhaust. I'm shure you'll pick up some torque over the abortion that's hanging off the side of your head now. Then throw it on a dyno and try advancing the base timing?

Otherwise take it to another mechanic, get the turbo put back on and sell the car!

Buy a barina.

Lmao Thats pretty creative. Butt ugly though. I say if your on P plates you should be driving a slow car until your on opens. Keep that bad boy in place for giggles. But get it chromed. I honestly dont know what a cop would say when they saw it.

"What is this?"

"Its a Chrome Plated Turbo bypass kit officer"

yeah i think someone has taken the "no pefrormance 6cyl "rule a bit literally. i vote we all put in a dollar and get this thing on the dyno

[azzafreddy]

lol yeah it probably makes great entertainment for all you car fanatics but i clearly stated that i made a mistake by getting this done, you learn from your mistakes and move on, besides i didnt do this myself so no one can put the lame arse mechanic job on my back im just the lame arse one who paid someone to do it.. and im now reversing the mistake by getting it all put back togethor, thanks SECURITY & JonnoHR31 and everyone else who helped out, ill check it out and post some pics when its all done, by the way i should be able to get the yellow rubber tubing from most car places yeah? like auto barn?

[mystery_kid]

so let me get this straight

you took off the turbo and put a set of extractors on?

by the way i should be able to get the yellow rubber tubing from most car places yeah? like auto barn?

doesnt have to be yellow. any rubber hose that size will do. all auto shops should have it

epic LOLs

f**k me sideways, quite a novel idea.

seriously take it to some one that knows what they are doing if you dont know what goes where or what material to use for hosing etc then you should not really be playing with it.

"Epic Fail Guy"

Hahahahaha! That's going to a lot of effort to create an account just for that

[azzafreddy]

so URAS how do you expect new people to learn things if they keep taking it to an expert, i bought this car as a project im pretty tight with 90% of what goes on under the hood and in the cabin just a little lost with the turbo, whats the point of talking to a bunch of losers who just wonna take the piss out of ya, just confuses me thats all i thought this was a social network for people to express ideas and help others.. if you get off giving people shit on a car website you seriously need to look in the mirror and tell yourself to get a life.

thanks for the people who help out young car minds.

Don't take it personally man. The reason this is so funny cause most of us have never seen a turbo blocked off like that before. Most people just put a set of extractors on or something, doing it the way yours is done is definetely thinking outside of the box.

[azzafreddy]

lol f this im gonna get someone to reinstall it, then drive it with a turbo and risk it, to confusing.

[bozodos]

didn't you make a thread about taking the turbo off and everyone said DONT DO IT or was that one of the other 400 p platers who post these threads lol

[azzafreddy]

yeah i had a forum just seeing if anyone else had done it before and what are the risks etc.

[SECURITY]

IMO only thing you fucked up with the install was still running the turbo ecu and the retarded timing (turbo motor = lower compression so you could get away with advancing timing a bit). thats the reason why your car is so sluggish. the way it was done was possibly the quickest and easiest way of ripping the turbo out otherwise you would've had to throw in the n/a manifold and the front pipe to suit. then putting it back together would've been the same amount of work and snapping manifold studs isnt fun kids.

all youve got to do is run the oil and water lines and its good to go back to normal. its not rocket science and you could do it yourself.

if you can get a programmable ecu into it and get it to a dyno you'll be fine. you might get a few funny looks from the tuners though. its definitely different.

in NSW the fine for driving a restricted vehicle is something like 7 demerit points.... so bye bye license if you get busted.
