This is really nice! WATCHING!

 

little off topic but kinda cool.....


we had a turbo blow up at work, sucked all the oil out of the motor and sent the turbine through the downpipe!

 

INSTALLED - UPDATE 1

Sorry guys I know the bay is filthy... Had a pretty rough couple of weeks recently. Car runs very strong. I'm not running the water cooling yet because I ran out of time but expect to see that installed soon too. Not sure if it was mentioned before, but this is a fully watercooled turbo, that can still run dry as long as you let it idle for a min or 2 after driving. Boost is instantaneous. In vac idle if i rev it lightly I can get the BOV to go off a few times. In gear it's very smooth with even more top-end than my turbonetics.





Questions?

 

Yes the Stage 1 can upgrade to this. You do need a few extra parts though, for the oil return, water cooling, and new coupler for the intake. Install is pretty straightforward though. I'll be doing some road testing for a while in the meantime.

For the other question.. Yes bearings can fail. Instead of replacing the whole deal, each component can be addressed. This is a very useable and reliable setup. She drives great!

 

waiting on some numbers

 

Numbers will be a little while. Taking care of some other tid-bits in the meantime.

 

I dub thee turbo: "The Big Purple People Eater".

Joe Looks great!

You know what you are missing? A some powdercoating.. PC those pipes and valve cover. Then install a spark plug cover.
If your interested PM me. I'll give you a great price

Not quite sure Joe would, as he is more into performance than looks of the engine bay itself.

Joe where are those vids?

 

Your BB went out according to Joe. PM him if you need tracking.

 

Joe, maybe we can get Nick this coming weekend at the show to shoot some video of both cars. Maybe go up on the freeway and get some side by side. Just remeber they are turning the photo radar back on!!
