couple of pics with turbo, gotta find skinny scoop to put over intercooler yet, or fab one up. going to put a little 8" fan under it to pull air down when air flow is minimal (off road)

still to get fuel pump adjusted properly, i've just given the little adjuster screw 4 or so turns. awaiting gauges to set up properly.

has a little more poke with 11Psi pushing inot her :twisted:

turbo

yes turbo is on backwards. :lol:

to fit behind alternator this was the only way, it is a RB20 (skyline) turbo off an import, water and oil cooled, spools up nice and early. i'cooler of a RB20 too, small but better then nothing.

nah maggot, got a mate that imports jap cars and builds drift cars, etc. got him to do it for foldings for me, haven't got the bill yet :lol: , he said it wouldn'tbe too much though. turbo was round $200 then just 2nd hand i'cooler and plumbing, hoping not too much over $1100, but wait n c....

bit tcheaper then doing it with a 'new turbo', mates new garret for his was over $1500 alone!!

hey maggot, mate can't say what my bill was sorry :lol: , but he said 'others' would be $1600-$2000 depending on gauges and setup.

by the way i got no heater so thats where my i'cooler is. its a private import and 'didn't come with one'
