    The SN65 project car

    yeah, those are what I was thinking but they've got a really weird shape to them. I was going to say to cut the bracket in the middle and lengthen it but the way those look, if you did that, they might just fail outright during the collision. I think I agree with you about just leaving them off.

    Its ALIVE!!! sorta....

    even if you bought the seals and managed to get the turbo apart, seals replaced, and back together yourself...I wouldnt trust it without getting it rebalanced. In the end it would be just as cheap to get a good used one from the boards before rebuilding one.
