These are my two. I know BT has a photo up here. This one a little better.

here's mine LOL

Should put a inlet manifold on it.

beats having CFI though!

Inlet Manifold isn't really needed since I can't drive it.

Haha definitely John, I was going to do an Initial D style fair well for the CFI, but then I realized how gay that would be. I've read about 11tybillion posts on MPFi conversions and they all seem to vary from car to car, got it pretty well sussed out just need to get the right injector loom. The guide on here is useless too, cornflake box for a manifold gasket... errr no thanks. Lot of cleaning to do as well still, did a compression test before I pulled the CFi shit off and it was 160-165 on all cylinders.

go with the ef-au inlet manifold :0

or better yet put yer ticford motor in it

hey this is my engine bay

not much to look at, keen to get a chrome edelbrock inlet manifold

and some day replace the super charger :0

hey 'turbodrift'. how'd you get the orange paint so nicely done over the grooves of the air box, rocker cover etc???
It looks fkn ace

+ awesome for lookalike inlet and outlet manifolds lol

That intake manifold is pretty awesome Kaddis, very tidy bay all round. I like!

its getting there fuses/relays are in the guard now so that hides alot of wiring the plenum and fuel rail will come up mint with a polish, it's running ba turbo injectors with custom fuel rail, custom inlet and exhuast manifold with nice shinny rocker cover

Amazing engine bays guys iff you don't mind me asking how much did those turbo setups set you back they look mint.

stock i kno bu cant do alot, coz will be on my p's soon

um wat size is that turbo??????

hey kaddis just a quick question is there a reason for such a big plenum chamber does it make a difference in power im not being a smartarse i dont know thats all

Nothing special but fairly clean nonetheless...

Here is mine at the moment.





Pretty awesome i know.

Hey, DISCNT... Is that an AU engine with EA-ED inlet manifold??????
I suppose the question is why?
(no offence)

Whats the consensus on here- Engine cover or not on the 5Ltr's?
Had no engine cover when I bought it and wondering whether I should bother putting one on or not.

Good stuff |2aebird. Its progressing nicely. Whens the new beast making love in that engine bay

Yes it is Chris. There's not real benefit to EF EL manifold unless you use EL ECU or something to switch the runners. Also ED manifold is better for turbo application.

EA-ED Manifold looks a lot neater too IMO.

still got my cover on for the moment mate. i'm thinking bout taking it off though.. if i do i'll probably give it a good coat of VHT paint same colour as the car. just clean it up a bit.

that comes as a surprise to me. i thought the successors would be better...

Well mine was like this, but its quite empty at the moment as rebuild is underway:

KeeddleZ: i love how stock it looks.
i doubt a cop would spot the supercharger.

Haha thanks, yea as long as they dont here the whine first i should be allright

thats an interesting engine bay keedlez, I can't quite figure out your intake manifold tho...

heres my old engine bay.

Isecond that one what manifold are you running?

anywho,

The Old EB





The XR8



The Phoon

mmmm needs a turbo...

I like this one
What ECU cover is that mate?
I wouldn't mind a simple black plastic one like that, rather then the polished blingy ones.

Here's mine. Pretty embarassing in comparison to everyone else...


Got a sneaky little CAI running from the front bumper:


To the pod:
Excuse all the cable ties

I'm looking into getting some shielding around the pod. But they only seem to have the kits for BAs... Might have to make one up

Dude, put your pod filter down that hole!

This is how mine looked on the first test drive. I never took any pictures after i cleaned it up a bit ie. got rid of all the zip ties, washed the dust off and replaced the oil line.


Hmmmm, got clearance issues there... maybe a smaller turbo is the go? Hahaha, nah, just need a bigger compressor to match the mofo sized turbine
HAHAHA, bask in all it's filthyness!

The cover is a fiberglass one that one of the guys in the ORSM club (mr Lon)(ORSMT5) makes thay are $30 and then you just paint it your self i used some VHT Saturn black paint and it came up a treat.

I know. I'll have to try and squeeze the 3' pipe thru that hole. Not easy thou
