Twin Turbo - 2 Single Turbo

[zentac]

Hehee! I thought that was Mr. Breaking's garage!

You're cracking on quick with that my word!! Where have you got the piping from?

The pipe work came from the local powerflow place, they chopped two pipes into 3 sections each, bent them all 90 degrees and flared the ends so we could fit them all together.

Im going to need cable heat shield and exhaust wrap by the bucket load... anyone know the cheapest place to get it from?

Day 5

5 hrs spent welding up the pipework and sorting out the exhaust

(oh and a couple of hundered spent on samco hoses and heat shield!)

Looking good, mate! So the worst job is about done? The intake and oil/water feeds should be much easier, shouldn't they?

[psbarham]

This car WILL be quick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice one... never thought that the engine would fit into a FTO...
Are you making it front wheel drive or 4?
Just wondering how you would keep this on the road with front wheels...

ye gods that's a big intercooler!

[ritch_w]

wow!!!! great work!!
richard - you must carry your testies around in a wheel barrow !!!

[bernmc]

Have you polished your intake manifold???

Have you done anything to the internals, or are you just going to increase boost on the stock engine? What levels are you planning to run?

Stock engine at the moment, that will be the next thing.... the manifolds have been painted with black satin to keep the heat in. The rest will also be painted then wrapped with exhaust wrap.

looking great mate! One question though, how are you gonna protect the fuse box at it's current location (or are you moving it?) I'm no expert but surely it's gonna get a cookin even with a shield..

[zentac]

it will be fine with a bit of heatshield on

Day 7

3 hrs spent

Bit of a let down today Ordered hoses from Merling Motorsport and from Forge Motorsport yesterday before lunch both for next day delivery and neither turned up. Last time I use either of those two companies!

But still we got the exhaust work finished, just needs a little tidy up this weekend.
