Sterling grey GT turbo build
- Thread starter SGcoyote
- Start date
Probably around 8.5 whatever keeps it safe, it makes plenty of power on 6 pounds.

Got a BMR K-member and ACT twin disk along with the one piece drive shaft installed last night. Here's a few pics of my car and my buddy's TT yote. Going to the dyno next Thursday!

your setup looks pretty damn good. cant wait to see how the trans does with it over time, im stickin to manual trans as well once i get my turbo setup come years end.
Which Dyno? Looks like a perfect week of weather.
I'll be bringing it to Hi-tech Motorsports dyno, my tuner rents dyno time there.

Got the car on 8 pounds and e85, its a blast to drive, definitely going to need a little more serious tire! Took a few pictures it's super dusty from dam gravel driveways.

The car was put on the rollers Thursday, but was very heatsoaked from sitting in traffic along with a 90° dyno cell and pump gas, along with limited time, we left off at 6 pounds of boost and made 534/540, now I have corn in it and it's turned up to 8.5 pounds going back to the dyno in a few weeks.
Just ordered some Billet Specialties 15x10 and Mickey Thompson ET streets, ARP wheel studs, sway bar relocation bracket and a polyurethane upper bushing for the rear end. Hopefully it'll stop blowing tires away lol.

Bump old thread but looks like you're close to me I'm in Minneapolis just wondering how the mt82 is holding up I'm waiting on my EDP kit to arrive and will be installing sortly after just had concerns about my trans holding up
Good luck with that guy from EDP. I ordered mine 3 months ago and still have missing parts, promises every week he will ship and stopped responding to my messages 2 weeks ago.

u got any sound? wud like to hear how loud that exhaust dump is in the front.
yea good luck with that my buddy is still waiting on his WG from EDP smh. such a joke! I warned him to not go that route hope ur luck is better.
I'm sure there are a few ppl here and there that has a Mt82 holding the power a Turbo kit will make but how many really and for how long is the real question.
Turbo cars need an auto period.

Saw this on facebook earlier. Guy had to go get his car back & drag it away from EDP shop in pieces.

God damn amazing build professional work!
As of 12/25/17 the car is down with no transmission in it.. I bought a ton of parts for it and sold my old junk
This year I will be upgrading the suspension, transmission and building forward facing headers for it, still have the 76 and put about 12k on my current setup.
Trans and drive terrain will be a TH400 with pretty much the same parts jakes performance uses in their level 4 trans with a super bell, more then likely a TSI converter, MW drive shaft, SFI flexplate, TCI shifter, strange 1350 yoke
I also got 6 piston brakes for it as well
The suspension upgrades will be BMR upper mount, extreme anti roll bar, rod end control arms, control arm relocation brackets, rod end Panhard bar, spherical upper diff bushing, Panhard bar relocation and brace, subframe connectors and A arm brace
Now I just need time to install this stuff
