Right after that pic, she did dump some right in the turbine housing LOL!!! I love that kid. She's like, "Oh look you gave me a thing to put popcorn in, thanks Dad! DUMP!"themadscientist wrote:Make sure there's no popcorn in the compressor housing! Buttery FOD is no good.
Is that going to bolt to the T4 flange?
I know! It's also where the integrated recirculation valve returns the air back to the inlet of the turbo. I'm excited to get it up and running!Izento wrote:Holy mother of anti-surge!
LOL! I'm a bit worried about that. We'll see how it does, but I suspect a Z32 gear box and adapter flange isn't a long way away for me. I'm hoping the short diff gearing will help alleviate some of the stress on the stock gear box, but I think the short gearing is going to become a detriment at this power level and will have to be changed as well.tommey wrote:Congratulations!
Can't wait to see this thing rip your gearbox apart!
I still think like a kid I guess. I saw popcorn and went, "gonna dump it in that new turbo!" I suspect your kid's motivations are exceedingly more innocent than mine, though. My inner child is an ***hole.float_6969 wrote: Right after that pic, she did dump some right in the turbine housing LOL!!! I love that kid.

I'm not a drifter, so I'm hoping that will help it last longer. I have been known to partake in a stoplight race though, and I'm much more worried about that.Izento wrote:I guess at this point your gear box breaking is a matter of if you drift or not, lol. Grippy tires will probably kill this thing. My tires are at like 45 psi, 215/45/17.
Kids are ***holes in general. The difference is they don't know their ***holes yet, LOLthemadscientist wrote:I still think like a kid I guess.

I'm expecting about 400HP @ 4K RPM @ 28psi, and 500+hp around 7K RPM. On paper, I'm near overspeed at 28psi and 8K RPM, but we'll have to see what it does.dash wrote:I'd hope, that any "big turbo" had better be making waaayyy more than 400hp at 28psi
