    Here's the finished engine bay. I've been driving it about a week now, put 400km on the setup.


    Also I did shield the intake a little better. Just in time to test it out with our disgusting weather.

    295whp 390ftlbs at 5psi. Basically same as it made on nitrous and exactly what I wanted.

    The real test will be see what it does at the 1/4 mile.

    Also if rage2 picks up an E400 wagon we must race.

    Nice! How do the curves look compared to the spray?

    Wanna race another turbo car?

    The same but 1000rpm later lol. Because it's a baby turbo there's a big torque mountain that tapers off. He rolled into it and went WOT at 3000.

    If you haven’t already, wrap the exhaust all the way back to the turbo. It will reduce the lag significantly and hit the turbine with more energy once its moving.

    I might do that if I'm bored one weekend, I don't feel it's laggy enough for me to bother at the moment.

    Gonna intercool this bitch with some ebay crap.

    No updates, still not intercooled, here's a burnout. Enjoy.



    EDIT: Burnouts with a rear mount turbo have a hilarious side effect.

    It didn't take long for someone else to be the owner, went quickly.

    I did waffle it. I have car ADD, so 3 years is actually pretty long for me to have a car. Also just picked up a Subaru and 4 cars is too many for me to have as a renter.

    2019 I will be turboing my Mustang in the spring and in later summer turboing my Subaru.
