Ive also fitted a few of these, and had to fix a couple that others had fitted. Most of the time its either the o-ring was torn on installation, or the installer has got the seal housing all cock-eyed, so the o-ring doesnt touch in one spot and hence leaks air/oil.

I think youd find being made for only a 3 litre they would be more of a hindrance than a help. Itd probably make boost on idle (well not wuite) but the tiny exhaut housing would restrice flow in higher revs a fair bit. Also compressor wheel would run out of flow very early.

Mainly keen to do it as have access to a cheap vit with a cracked block, and my sierra has good running gear but a shit body. Dont want it for high speed stuff, its only gotta be driven 3km to work and back everyday. Legality isnt a problem, one of the good things about being in a smallish town ...

Yeah hopefully the width wont be a problem, hopefully have a set of hilux diffs lined up. I can be handed with a welder/grinder too, does this change your reply?

Vitara body on sierra

Hey guys,
I recently bought an 85 LWB zook. The body is rusty as hell (it was only 400 bucks), and I may have access to a cheap vitara, so my question is, can I relatively easily put a vitara body on my sierra?
