Looks like it may even be TT (something behind that big sucker(blowerlol)). Looks pretty deadly so far.

Well, i was originally looking at using 2 smaller garret turbos but the manifold design was getting a little um "stressfull" :rant: , the turbo is a huge "command" branded one, should do the job nicely. its sitting on a modified sigma turbo manifold.

havent had it running yet, still putting together cooler piping and have to wire up the ecu etc,

how long till its time

the car has been a long term project ive been working on ( i bought a 3000gt vr4 and a HJ galant with a 6a12tt in the meantime which slowed things down considerably:D )

im hoping to be able to have it running in the next couple of months, only put the engine back in the bay over the weekend so it should progress along quite well


Looks like it may even be TT (something behind that big sucker(blower)). Looks pretty deadly so far.

once its running i was considering looking into adapting to suit a sequential tt setup, but thats down the track a bit

how did you modify the sigma turbo manifold is it just a different flange or what.soz to ask the questions its just what i was thinking of doing

the manifold has a t4 flange from factory and a hole for a external gate, i welded up the hole for the gate and redrilled the turbo studs to suit the t3 split pulse flange turbo (the ports are the same size, just the flange itself it narrower, fairly easy

im going to have the manifold planned on the head side on a slight angle to make the turbo sit slightly lower to give better bonnet clearance.
