SS/SC to Turbo adapter /Going back to STOCK/ Coilovers
Hi all. Tim Tanason here
I'm located in Dearborn MI.
e-mail is NGalaxyTimmyo@hotmail.com
I'm getting ready to sell my car, so that means going back to stock! I have a few decent items for sale. I'd prefer a local seller for all of these items if possible, but I'd be willing to work for you with shipping. These items have some weight to them, so I'm not sure how much it'll be to ship.
First off I have a DC Sport strut tower brace $55 OBO SOLD
One of the first mods I did to the car. It has some scratches and grease smears, but is still very much functional.
Next I have a set of B&G Coilovers $950 OBO
I only had these on my car for about 10,000 miles. I guess the B&G website lists these at $1740 MSRP.
Finally I also have a Turbo Adapter $140 OBO
I had this made when I went turbo. This adapter will replace the supercharger when you decide to go turbo. Auto Addictions in Michigan made it up for me. If you look at my ancient turbo thread, there should be pictures of the exhaust manifold he made for me as well.
By using this to bypass the supercharger, you will get to keep using the stock heat exchanger. It fits a stock throttle body. It also has three ports on it for the Map sensor, as well as any other gauges/sensors/boost controllers that require a vacuum reading. I'll also through my intake manifold, as the superchargers butterfly valve opening is welded shut for this application.

Everything here is up for negotiation. It's been awhile since I've really been around this place. I think I've had the car in the garage for the last two years. I tried to go around and look for some of my items to see what they've been going for, but couldn't find the coilovers. I just figured that would be a good starting point.

It worked great for me. When I started getting everything together to go turbo, there were no kits out yet. I had Auto Addictions make it up for me, a shop about 45 minutes away. Everything matches up perfectly so no problems bolting it down or to the throttle body. The throttle body is almost in the same spot it was with the supercharger. The guy at the shop even powder coated it for me.
All of the sensors were easy to attach with a few vacuum hoses. I ran it like this for awhile. Eventually switched to an air to air intercooler, so it's been sitting in the garage.

You have a good eye, that's exactly where that was. That meet took place in fall of 05 I believe. About a week after I got my car. I had some help setting it up, even though at the time I wasn't sure if my car would even be in yet. A lot of those guys have since sold their balts though. As you can tell by this thread, I'll be joining them shortly

I usually had everything pretty stiff. It's been a couple years since I've used them, so it's hard to really remember too much. I would adjust them a bit if I knew I would be driving for awhile with my girlfriend at the time.
