New Turbo

[92TSIpos]

The flanges on the header look pretty helpless. Is there any brackets or supports to hold up the turbos weight?

Love that turbo, and you're building the engine, something tells me you are going to have way too much fun tuning that thing, it's gonna be crazy!!

After I test fit the header/turbo on the car and build the adapter to make the big turbo fit, then I send the whole works back and they are going to reinforce it, ceramic coat it, and build a 4" downpipe.

Dave, what N.O.S. setup you gonna run with that monster, same one?

[DaveH]

Yep, same nitrous setup. It should be plenty to spool it.

I got out and worked on getting the new turbo on... as I figured it's gonna take a little custom work for it to fit. It will definitely fit under the hood tho. LOL It doesn't look so ungodly huge once it's in the car.

not too shabby, I think it still looks a little bigger than most.

[torbs]

beautiful!!!

[King Ricer]

it looks alot better then the night i stoped by your house that one night. are you going to have to use a bigger downpipe then or would a 3 inch still work??

Its tiny, order up the GT47

[DaveH]

97cav.... so now I know who you are by your screen name. heh. It will have a 4" downpipe, mid-pipe and exhaust.

Chuck: I'll have a GT47 here next week, but unfortunately it's for a customer. I will prob have to mock it up on my car just to see what it looks like. Maybe I'll send him the GT42 and keep the GT47 for myself? You think he'd notice? :eek:

[Guest]

I think it would be worth the risk of him not noticing....I mean, you gots mad photoshop skills so I'd think you'd have mad casting skills too....just add a GT47 stamp into the casting.....come on, you know you wanna....

If I were you I would put a screen or some thing over the intake side so it doesnt suck in your plug wires.
