Doug, it will be 4k plus for Dante, he's buying a Mazworx block and then a whole other SR swap....so yeah, he'll be up there.....but a normal SR swap is what, 1800 to 2200?

Knowing Dante, he'll find an SR motor set for like $10.

Okay, I see where you're coming from. But Dante is usually good at finding good deals, so who knows.

Dante, hurry the hell up. I'm gonna start slowly taking parts one at a time.

yes im constantly looking for a 240 dont care if it is running or not but wanting an all power hatch that doesnt have rust is becoming harder to find. It might be easier for me to find one with the sr swap already but for now just ordering some small things

was bored again sitting at home so i decided to mount the turbo and all its bells and whistles too see how everything looks and fits.putting those v-band clips on the WGs was a biatch

the garrett plate

both 44mm WG installed

then mounted the turbo

then the downpipe

Full-Race FTW30psi here I come... that's only for the occasional drag pass but will probably run around 16psi

Doug is correct but the 2 WGs aren't just for the power, proper twinscroll manifolds have dual WGbetter flow easier for precision tuning

dual wastegate is more for response than anything. bleeds boost nearly instantly.

responsive wastegates for responsive twinscroll.
