    Pas, nothing so scientific. It was welded on when I got the turbo, but it was very small weld and there was a small crack. So I made a bigger weld with SS 316L rod and no pre-heat. We shall see if I drop the DP on the road after first heat cycles haha.
    Was it with an arc rod?

    Last nightshift I was little bit bored at work, so I ported the turbine housing. It will now match the manifold flange better, and the throat, till the turbine wheel opening, is now little bit bigger than on my other A/R .63 housing. Of course the rest of the snail is smaller. Quite difficult to measure so just visual estimation.

    Haha, Des, your EFR would have been perfect for this car, but missed that deal.

    Turbo arranged. I have no idea how it will work..? It's not anything common with these engines, it's a custom Garrett/Compturbo with 54/76mm compressor and 62/74mm turbine wheel. Turbine housing is a small A/R .48. Hope to get ~450-500hp with decent spool <3500rpm, but as usual, goes maybe not as planned.

    Got these today. Vems came with a LCD so I'll guess the PLX is little bit unnecessary. I may sell it....
