1200hp turbo build

i have the flange made. its a combo of t4/t6. t6 length t4 width.

yep. im keeping the exhaust split to the housing, it should spool fine with a stall. i do wish it was the smaller housing, but ill live. im keeping the downpipe maxxed. 5" to dual 3". minimum backpressure.

[billfisher]

nope stock 97 markviii. im going to finish the one i started. its similar to the mmr part.

 

[Mr. Rustypwnz]

post some pics of that thing I wanna see it!

 

[billfisher]

its the one in my avatar. Since that pic, i cut off the long runners, made 8 new runners in their place, and welded them in. i just never finished it. all of the runners have a 2 degree taper cut into them. i consulted with THE Sullivan for advice, and made some changes.

headers:

they are just tacked. have to start somewhere. two more tubes on this side.

where the tubes from 7 and 8 join, the tubing steps from 1.625 to 1.75".

Bill where are you getting your header pieces from, if you need a source for stuff Ill let you know who I use or I can get you the stuff at a discount.

 

[billfisher]

ok. i get them from summit. the flanges are lasercut from ebay.

i cant believe i havent done this before now.

list of things left is getting smaller all the time.
mount driver's side injectors/rail,
plumb cooling system,
mount new replacement manual master cylinder....the new one should require less effort.
install oil feed line for turbo
reconnect intercooler stuff/BOV, etc.
install wideband AF gauge/bung/sensor system in new spot.

 

[billfisher]
