    THE MONSTERS ARE HERE!!! Huge turbos for the kits... w/ pics

    oh and for the guys who say "emissions -pfft!" it was so smoky, it would coat intersections like you just did a nice long standing burn-out, which will attract police from any town.

    I've had a deuce to do the project on for some time, (not just the one I own now) but just so I don't have to keep sending out pm's, Ill post here. There was a hold up in the kit design for a couple of months for personal things that came up. After that, it has been determined that the...

    THE MONSTERS ARE HERE!!! Huge turbos for the kits... w/ pics

    I'm still going to keep my word and if the engine blows on my deuce (holy cow, if anyone ever sells one around here.. haha) with this turbo, I'll buy all of you guys a beer. I'm not going nuts with it, and up here we can run at least 3-4 psi more than at sea level... Maybe it sounds like a lot...

    That's cool WT. However, it still doesn't answer what we were questioning... Can a TD head hold more pressure than a non-td? I guess we'll need to call an engineer from the manufacturer.

    I don't know - that seems to be a pretty pretentious thing to say. You're telling me that a head tightened down MORE can't hold more cylinder pressure than one that is lightly tightened down? I’m just not sure. To me it sounds a bit incongruous. I’ll buy what Bob’s saying.

    They are IHI RCE7 Wastegated with custom compressor wheels. Good luck finding any documentation on a IHI turbo without workignwith the engineers there at IHI for a compressor map. The only public documents I've seen are one mass-rainbow-colored map and a spec sheet that was garbage. They're...

    Flange for the manifold is on it's way. I finally talked to the guys - it is "under construction", so that could be a week or so. Anyhow, 5 of these came in, worth $1200 each, and I'd part with one if you seriously want it without buying an entire kit for $700.00 shipped DHL to your door. The...

    Boy talk about a big box... The ups guy showed up just a few minutes ago, and made me sign for a package without anything else in his hands besides the e-clipboard... He grumbled, "I'll be right back this is a big one." I could hear the clank of his hand cart, and a few grunts, as he...
