ILoveAudi's 98 GTP - Turbo Hoopty



Re: ILoveAudi's 98 GTP - Slow ****box Runs Again!

Bought a wastegate this morning. Also, here's some of the turbo stuff sitting on the floor.

 
Re: ILoveAudi's 98 GTP - Slow ****box Runs Again!

Does anyone know if there is a upgrade for the ENGINE STRUT MOUNT on the Pontiac Grand Prix, I have a 2001 GTP and nearly every year for the last five I have had to replace these things. The rubber breaks and then the engine rocks back and forth causing damage to the exhaust and possibly other parts under the hood. I don't know if this topic has been covered in another thread yet, but I am real tired of replacing these parts, this is a crap design.

You can get solid poly mounts from intense or ZZP or find a used set from someone (I would recommend intense) they have the square ones as well as the round ones for whichever you need. Also for future reference I would start your own thread or ask in the chatbox so you're not threadjacking someones post.

http://intense-racing.com/PROD/3800-PRO-UMMP-xxx.html this includes both the square and round ones but you can get just the square ones also if you browser their website

Bought a set of 60# injectors today! Oil lines are all that are needed and the kit will basically be complete.

Hey, the ic will happen. I'm just going to need a good opportunity to get it done. Lord knows it will take me way longer to get it installed than it would anyone else.
 
Re: ILoveAudi's 98 GTP - Turbo Coming Soonish?

So.... I bought a wastegate off eBay about two weeks ago. I waited about a week for it to get here, but it never came. So I messaged the seller (who has 100% positive feedback) and he has still not gotten back with me. So hopefully I can get my money back, otherwise I'm out $125. It was used, that's why the price was low. But yeah, so now I have to wait until this is all figured before I go buying another wg and blah blah blah.

On another note, my car seems to be getting a lot of kr again. :D

File a claim, you will get a refund from ebay unless they have a tracking number and it says "delivered".
 


Re: ILoveAudi's 98 GTP - Turbo Coming Soonish?

Ordered my oil lines today. I still need a couple random things, like a boost controller, titanium wrap, and a turbo blanket. Other than that, I should have it all. I will be running no intercooler at first, but only until I sell my headers and belt wrap. Then that money will be going towards the ic.
 
Re: ILoveAudi's 98 GTP - Turbo Coming Soonish?

Having trans issues. Started shifting rough and then started then got a p1810 code. Can't wait to try and fix that.
 
Re: ILoveAudi's 98 GTP - Turbo Coming Soonish?

Probably going to shut the car down in the coming week. I'd like to knock everything out at once, so I want to try and fix the trans, install the turbo kit, replace the struts, and do motor mounts all in the same period of time. I guess we'll see
