what specs were you thinking of going for on this turbo?

[shortsport]

Havn't a clue yet I was going to have a word with my local turbo supplier for suggestions they always seem pretty helpfull.

Will the bonnet shut with the turbo on that manifold!

If it doesn't just do what they tend to do with Norwegian BMW's with lunatic turbos (PPF's Schwitzer S400-powered E30 springs to mind) and just cut a hole out of the bonnet for it

A small update.Things havn't been moving that fast recently(time is taken setting up an MOT station) but my roll cage tube has arrived and i've joined a religious cult! I am now a full paid up member of the Turbonetics.

Had to modify the inner wing slightly for it to fit and I need to change the exhaust flange.

Wow , what bhp can that thing push?

Have you decided which ems your going to run yet?

[shortsport]

It's a HP66 and is good for 600-700hp

Thats some turbo fella

[hemihead]

looks good! i'm planning on running a boot mounted radiator as well, are you looking into using an electric water pump as well or just the standard one?

[shortsport]

I'll be using just an electric water pump

A small update for now as it's been very busy at work have now started fitting the mounts for the seats so photos of that will follow soon.I've been buying stuff again which now means things will change further down the production line

first of all I bought a wastegate at the same time of buying the turbo



In the mean time I've won some cheap brakes on e-Bay,originally I bought the 355mm brembo discs then a week or so later the 6 pot AP's with discs and bells and mounts came on e-Bay (ok the bells and mounts are different to what I want but can be resold),so now I just need some 330mm discs and bells for the rear and my brakes are sorted






And finally a pic of the rear end with the adjusted rear spoiler waiting to converted into a mould

Hows it going?

[shortsport]

How's it going?

Very slowly. Haven't really done anything since before christmas as I have a few loose ends to clear up on a customers car then I'm back on to the Audi. Mind you I have started to make the head lamp mounting plates as I was getting pi**ed off just looking at it stuck on the ramp so some pics will follow soon I hope.

Small update, been making front panel and inlet manifold parts


Had the guy in the next unit to me make some parts for the inlet. It's going to be a similar design to the Audi imsa manifold on the 90's
