Here are some more pics so people can realize how freaking huge this turbo really is. It came off of a V8 Caterpillar engine that produced 550 hp at 1200 rpm. This thing is a monster.

LOL! You'd probably need two KA's to start spooling that turbo.

Haha it's a twin scroll t6 flange, Probably wouldn't even start spinning till about 4k rpm. I think we might try and go "Bwana Style" and make our own manifold out of the stock manifold, as a t6 flange from OBX is only 15 bucks. The only thing I'm concerned about is weight...this thing weighs like 60 punds haha.

Haha yeah that's a 2 liter. If we really go ahead and put it on it's going to be a very simple setup. Probably not even a wastegate. I don't ever see this thing even spooling lol
