Intercoolers ,pace cores , it was very easy to weld the costum tanks.

The front air and oil coolers setup, after the last heads work and bolts retorque I was bit worried about the whole cooling system so I replaced the water rad to a DAF City series trucks radiator with great very solid core and welded on huge costum tanks.
Lots of people said the coolers should not be positioned low , So I ran some tests with 3 different positions for an additional air temp sensor on the coolers (they have special screwing -hole ) ,connected to the Haltech's input , at 14psi on a day 27*c the boosted air did not heat beyoned 40*c without a water\Meth injection .

Clusture of the left port without the cam covers , the left 2.5" Downpipe fitted with a wideband oxygen sensor , This one is with the DAF's radiator and the Turbonetics turbo.

Hey, impressive stuff. You have been a busy lad in the go departement.

What are you using for brakes just as a matter of interest?

Hi,
I've now done about 500 miles with the GTA convertion , I've mounted 305\22mm GTV99\GTA dirsc with spacered Brembo Calipers on fronts- in the outer of the front hubs (no need to rebore the discs or anything -straight bolt on thing as I have 5X98 75M hubs etc....) , vented cross drilled regular alfa 250mm inboard rears.
Next months I'm fitting merc %500 front discs also on outer side of the hub , these come 330\32mm drilled high carbon disc as stock mercedes benz part, about 150E a pair.
On the GTA convw I used the stock master cyl' and GTV6 calipers with spacers beetween the two parts ,I'll post pictures of the assmbly tomorrow.
Cheers

That is serious! :shock:

What are you using the car for? Track racing, drag racing ( I reckon it's not a daily driver)? What final drive do you use?
Is it driveable? :wink:

Really amazing, congrats!

Wow! The best possible power plant in a sleeper sedan. I love it.

Nice rims ! rims are off a Lancia Delta Integrale!
Made by Speedline Italy! ?

Yes ,
the rims were taken from a 94 Evo2 Integrale , the only one that exists in our country (the owner upgraded to OZ 18"s), they are 7.5" wide , which enabled me to fit 245\45\16 rear tires .
This is a weekend car of mine , but it's totaly drivable it even has power steering and all the acesories (power window, miror ,power loxking ,xenon light , and about 8 costum gauges for good specture of the engine and mechanics.
I'm considering to go single turbo soon , probably with a HX\50 Holset or a GT40 Garrett turbo , I have allthe parts needed but the nmanifold which is a bit of a problem to design for efficient gains (especialy with the big diveded turbine housings of the large singles . the main thing that bothers me about the Twins is all the extra-everything (exhausts ,Westgates , leaks and pressure balances).

Thanks Giulietta.

I asked driveability in the aspect of power on the rear axle. :)

Last weekend we "upgarded" a Giulietta. It was only a small one, 2.0 instead of 1.8, so it cannot be compared to yours, but that relatively small amount of power gain made the car acting funny. :lol: Sliding all the time. (Temp is below 0, so roads are frozen, i have to admit.)

I was just wondering what a 24VTT can do with the rear wheels, specially when the full boost arrives. 8)

Anyway, congratulations to your project. Really amazing.
