    Re: The OFFICAL RENDON LX-i TURBO THREAD

    so...i was just curious why you decided to go with putting the intercooler directly behind the passenger headlight? it looked like you cut out the front radiator support area since you upgraded to the other one you're currently using. but, i was wondering why you didn't mount it on the front, run a a 180* bent aluminium pipe to the front mount from the turbo compressor, then another 180* bent aluminium pipe to the piping going to the TB? were there clearance issues with the intercooler piping possibly scraping the ground? i was thinking of doing this with a T3 turbo since the the elbow pipe from the turbo is a straight 90* off the 300ZX, and just running it under the crossmember like the stock pipe, then basically mounting the intercooler infront of the stock radiator...but i've got a head full of crazy sometimes,

    i know i kind of gave you shit for the whole use of that turbo, but honestly that turbo exhaust elbow looks to be a pain to work with unless you had another fabricated so you could just run it under the car like the exhaust does on the stock NAs. but, i'm sold on the T3 and the compressors are quite large for later expansion down the road. but i tip my hat since not many have turbo'd their A20s, but hopefully soon i'll start building a turbo motor on the lower compression Accord pistons, and some crappy eBay front mount. but i really wanna try for that front mount idea since the T3 turbo compressor housing doesn't elbow out like that T25 you have there, so it's just straight pipe to a 90* elbow to the inlet of the front mount, then just run the 180* elbow from the outlet pipe of the front mount and run piping along the front up that hole in the frame people run their cold air kits into, and into the TB. all this talk makes me want to do it soon...but we have to wait on the purchase of the second vehicle.

    it's funny how easy this really is as long as you're willing to take the time to do it right, ya know? so what size injectors are you running? and what fuel pump? OH and did you do anything with the ECU? or just take some resistance off the injector voltage? haha...SO MANY QUESTIONS!! bleh...

    Running stock PJO. DSM 450cc injectors and 255cc intank. As in voltage everything just bolts up and no you dont ahve to do shit like that since we are peak and hold like dsm and we have a resistor box. all you go to do is control em some how. im using Apex S-AFC
