    Custom hotside











    right he was the problem ,i needed a large turbo with quick spool ,for air effiency which they don't make , as this turbo is/or was a geniune garrett gt40 4intake , problem was the hotside it was too laggy due to size of I , 1.14 t4 twinscroll , so after searching for another hotside//but smaller they don't do one , so next option chop the buggar , yes its cast , but its cast steel with nickel contnt so can be welded ,,, so after chopping a large area off , and useing spring high tenile steel 5mm thick ,i knew it would work but how well was another story , anyway 4 hours later , it was time to try , bare in mind ,when first fitted I had major turbo lag and showing 5000rpm before boost came in , after customizing the hotside I'm in boost at 2600rpm ,lol with no surge and will pull clean to 30psi , mental , but I dearnt risk trying to tunie anymore as I'm on stock headbolts lol ,, no point in buying exspensive pistons/rods/bolts etc , long as its tunied its fun ,,, its when you get greedy and go that bit more then somert jumps out of the engine ,pmsl ,,

                          lol, zombie thread... although having missed this the first time, I feel... enriched? ...to have seen it.

                          Anyone know if it's still holding together?

                            As far as I know he got it up to the 500bhp mark quite easily but then it all went quiet in the thread so not sure.

                              I have seen something like this somewhere where they also welded a wastegate pipe on the dual scroll!
