I guess I'll have to get in contact with turbobay

 

Does this happen while you're accelerating in vacuum only or in boost as well?

 

It happens in vacuum and low boost, does your R sound like that?

 

No

I get some amplified noises due to the SRI but no metal on metal. No doubt, the R is much louder than the stock turbo but I'm not sure what you're hearing.

I listened again with headphones and cannot say? What is Matt saying?

 

To me it sounds like metal to metal contact and you can hear it. It will stop once I let off that's why I say the first 10 secs or maybe 9 you can hear it then after that you might hear it again once

 

Well I haven't done much to the car in a long time I kinda gave up on the turbo. So my plans have change a bit so my plans are to go with a 7163 next. I really like the R it's a great turbo but I guess something went wrong and it's not going to work with me now.

Plus why have a F40 swap cobalt with the R

My plans are to complete the f40 swap (already bought everything)
7163
Ported head
Stg 1 cams (maybe Stg 2)
And let's see what else catches my eyes while I'm at it lol

 

Nice plans Snail!

 

You dont need the ported head and cams to make ur HP goal

 

That may be but it helps with the whole "I'll be satisfied with my power after this next upgrade" syndrome

 

Who has that??

 

I have that syndrome for sure haha

 

Thanks should take the car to a complete new lvl

 

What my level?

 

Lol well higher than mine

 

Got the saab new tires

 

So I will be getting my f40 in the next couple of days, the zzp kit will take a bit longer since they are building the custom axles

 

Just wanna say if your looking for a set of tails Colo dude is your guy he such a great guy and surely stands behind his products I'm totally amazed and I would recommend him x1000 over anything or anyone else making tails

 

Its been a while since i have peeked in here.

But I must say she is coming along nicely man, You got a lot of big plans and I can't wait to see it when shes done!!

Keep it up man!!

 

Thanks man yeah she has big plans so far I have added to the plans of getting o2 housing, intake and exhaust manifold ported

 

So are you sticking with the dual mass flywheel and clutch with the f40 kit or are you gonna go with the race clutch setup?

 

I'm sticking to the dual mass

 

Great read, subd for the f40 build

 

Thanks it has come a long long way for sure and lots of plans still ahead

 

Good shot snail. Still following along

 

Thanks man it should be a nice small build

On the other hand still waiting on zzp to ship the f40 kit so if you need one or will buy one make sure you have time
