New GA

[BobGAGT]

I only posted this in this section because whenever I post in the GM cars section it doesnt show up on the main screen. Also I posted the same thing on GAOC so you may see a duplicate.

Well some of you know what happened to me lately. We bought my fiance a PT cruiser and we didnt know it but when we went to buy it it had the hahn racecraft stage II turbo kit on it. SO, I was like wow I need something turbo. I sold my white ga to a friend and I was looking for something turbo and came across a grand am that I couldn't pass up.

Here are the pics














Mods list:
-Garrett t3/t4 turbo
-Spearco intercooler
-TurboXS boost controller
-TurboXS blow off valve (sequential)
-Aeromotive adjustable fuel pressure regulator
-RC Engineering 320cc fuel injectors
-Greddy e-manage fuel management
-Blitz FATTx turbo timer
-RSM ported intake manifold
-RSM 62mm throttle body
-2.5" downpipe
-3" magnaflow cat
-3" catback piping to a dynomax muffler (soon to be TWO mufflers)
-SPEC stage III clutch
-Power slot rotors
-Spring tech springs / kyb shocks and struts
-RS Limited MASE 18's with 225/40 ecsta 711's
-Autometer EGT, Oil pressure, Fuel pressure, and Boost gages
-Hella 6000k HIDS (real!)
-Custom fit neoprene seat covers
-Avital alarm


I might be forgetting something in there. I'm getting different rims (my old 17's) and I'm ordering black and white katzkin for it. I already ordered mufflerS. This thing is hella loud and I'd leave it single exhaust if it didnt have two cutouts. The only problem with it is the turbo manifold needs to be re-welded.

Tell me what you think :)

Yea, the site has a ton of people that know what there talking about.

I'm glad to see anyone graduate to a car that has some balls :D I congradulate you! My only complaint is that it seems this full-featured turbo setup has been set on top of a stock block. Kinda limits the true potential of the engine, unless you wanna tear into it and push big boost!

And does Q4F have knowledgeable members? Do Jacko and caviar cum on little white crackers?

[BobGAGT]

Well when this engine gives in I'll build the next one and go crazy boost... but it may be awhile this one runs like a top.

[Josh]

how much boost are you running?

[digital-d]

That is one sweet GA. I love how it still has a stock look on the exterior.

[jeremy96gase]

Wow! Right on dude, thats killer.

Turbo is awesome. Is that teh one that was on eBay a few weeks back?

[BobGAGT]

Yes sir it is.

[jeremy96gase]

Sweet.
So whats wrong with the exhaust manifold?

oh, and don't forget to change the stuff in your "Garage"

[Danmuzicman]

dude how much power on how much boost, dude i am so jelous. i so want to turbo my car, imagine an LS1 with a turbo id sound so sweet

[BobGAGT]

Exhaust manifold is welded like CRAP. The shop that did the turbo did a good job on everything except that... so I gotta take it off, grind off the welds and make sure theres no cracks, then re weld it GOOD, and put it back on with new gaskets.
