Re: 78 race shell hill climb/ bonneville

Yes it's me Jason
If people in Oregon or Washington
knew what I was building I would be
more worried about thieves and naysayers.

This is top secret but do any of you remember Kevin black?
He had the 16v turbo mk1 scirocco. I found one of his friends

I found a great deal on an intercooler lot from a local for 120
With a blow off valve, the intercooler is quality, so I am upping plans
And going with a t4 turbo instead of my t3 to accommodate the bigger intercooler
And tubing and 3" downpipe I will get later

my low mile t3 ball bearing turbo ...

Re: 78 race shell hill climb/ bonneville

I got the turbo intake off a wrecked honda at the yard
I think he put it on then crashed his car, because
The filter was new I couldn't pass it up.

The other pipe is from a Saab, plan is still 23 psi
But I'm gonna run 2" from the turbo to maybe 2.25 into
Intercooler. And on other side run 2.25 ...

Re: T25 Diesel smoking - where to go?

Make sure that turbo ain't bad
When them seals go bad it will fill the exhaust full
Of oil
If the turbo is bad get a t3 manifold and turbo

Take nates advice and be sure to grab some diesel kleen
Stuff works awesome
