My GD3 Jazz 1.5 VTEC Turbo (Lots of Pics Inside)

[guest4485]

Hi all, here's a more detailed thread of my journey with the Jazz into boosted territory. Please note this doesn't include everything I've done to the car like the OEM red badges for instance...

The parts:

63mm single box exhaust


AEM FI/C piggyback controller


AEM Oil Pressure Gauge


AEM Tru Boost Gauge & Electronic Boost Controller


AEM Wideband/ AFR Gauge


AEM Water/Meth kit


D1 Spec Oil Catch Can


My now worn out Exedy Stage 2 Racing Clutch



Oversized intercooler before it got trimmed down


Log type custom manifold with cermaic coating




T1R Gauge Pod


PTP Turbo Blanket


Walbro 255 Fuel Pump


Boomslang Wiring Harness



Injector Pig Tails


Innovate Turbo Timer (yet to be installed)


Acura RDX 410cc injectors


Sump Gasket & Sealer


Liqui Moly 10w60 GT1 & Liqui Moly Ceratec


BMC Cone Air Filter


Mitsubishi TD04 Turbo


The engine bay while it was still NA for the last time


And so the install begins!






Sump tapped for oil return


RDX 410cc injectors were plug and play


Wiring for the gauges


Intercooler trimmed down & mock fitment


Looking mean without a bumper...


Off to fit the exhaust and some custom boost piping


Boost piping





Gauges lighting up


Grrrrr


The exhaust


The almost finished product



Tie Rod Ends


Under Bracing


Federal 595 RS-R Intermediates


OEM Honda O2 sensor


Dyno run on 0.3 bar boost, that's 102wkw peak power


and 201wnm


AEM water/meth inline filter


Spark plugs were poked after the tuning so I fitted these


Some engine bay bling


My interior


My keys


The sound system


The custom ported box


The OEM clutch after seeing about 8000km's of boost (it already saw about 135 000km's before that)



So driving around with an exposed intercooler was cool for a while but I needed something to protect it and for 'stealth mode' of course...




My wheels on a good day


AEM Oil Temp Gauge (still need a custom pod made for this)


The sound deadening




The final product


And here's my new Clutch Masters FX-300 clutch kit and light weight flywheel (installing soon)

Nice ride i am tempted to fit a supercharger on my Jazz Si but maybe is better the new Jazz with the turbo from the factory

Looks amazing.

Is it only 100bhp, or have I read it wrong.

Hi,

@moob
It's 102 kW, meaning about 139 bhp.

@gynosis
Really nice work you have done there.
I am slightly surprised you didn't get more horsepower out of that engine with all these mods.
Are the camshafts still stock ones ?
With about 90 bhp per liter, I should say this engine is probably still civilized enough to be driveable on usual roads, is that correct ?
Lot of torque too, that's probably the next work to manage : how to get this on the road without spinning wheels ?

And you've certainly a lot of ideas regarding braking and suspension...
What a hell of work !

I've got through all this once ago... never again but that was a lot of fun for sure 

Keep us informed about the next steps.

WOW!! Just WOW 

[guest4485]

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

@Jazzman84- turbo is always better than a supercharger

@ Rolandius- that's 102kw on the wheels at about 1500m above sea level, on pump fuel (which isn't the best quality compared to Europe, etc.) on 0.3 bar boost or about 4.8psi. That being said a dyno run was done on 0.6 bar boost and returned power in the 130-140wkw range
The motor itself is still stock, this is basically a custom bolt on turbo kit. It's very streetable, I can even get better fuel economy than stock just by cruising around.

The brakes have been an interesting point for me...





Will post some more pics and vids later
