August 3, 200619 yr It's been awhile but I've got it all done and have been driving it for the last few weeks. I got the TD04-13g Turbo installed onto my modified up-pipe, used a Stock WRX Downpipe and had to slightly clearance the lower crossmember to get it not to rub while going down the road, I got the Delta 272 cams and I love the extended power band I got with them, pulls hard from 3k to 7k The only thing that sucks about the 272 cams is the lifter clearance changes allot, and finding the right shim to make up the difference is a PITA!!!!!!! The shims they sent me didnt work and ended up cracking about a few miles and the ticking would get worse as they would flatten, so I used a combination of DIMES and some other SS Flat Washers that were thicker, the result is much quieter valve noise but still ticks a bit, but not nearly as bad as before, so I'm going to live with it for now since I have yanked the CAM Cases 5 times allready to adjust them!!!!! All in all the car is a beast and I have yet to loose to anyone! So far I'm running 10psi of boost and the thing just begs for more, I will keep everyone updated and hopefully I will be at WCSS 8! Enjoy Kill List so Far : Nissan 350Z 6-speed (5 cars from a 30mph roll) Subaru WRX 5-speed w/I/H/E/16psi (3 cars from a 45mph roll) 00' Honda Civic SI 5-speed w/I/H/E (im sure you can guess LOL) 80's Subaru GL Turbo Wagon (not even close, hehe)
August 3, 200619 yr Nice! are you running a boost controller or is stock boost on the TD04-13G wastegate 10psi ? I'm welding my up pipe and down pipe today or tomorrow so I'll have my TD04L on and ready to go for WCSS 8 perhaps we'll have to find some open highway on the way there or back
August 3, 200619 yr Mine will be put back together this weekend, YAY! I'll be running the 260 cams from Delta with a high compression SPFI block, TD04, IC and a lot of other goodies as well. Too bad I won't be able to make it to the show this year. Kinda a far drive for me and couldn't get the time off approved. Next year though, I'll be there.
