It will be a while before I put the turbo on. I need to get it rebuilt and weld on an external wastgate flange...

Yeah i need a few more supporting mods before it goes on, so I'm pretty much retarded for putting that under my list of mods

do the stock KA radiator hoses fit on the RB? I accidently cut one of them thinking i could rig something up, and then realized that they might have fit once i hacked em up...

Edit- Also, Carl, arent the stock injectors good for slightly over 300 whp? I will be running about 7 psi with that turbo (maybe 10 at the track). soooo would that be bad news bears?

woah, 300whp on 270cc injectors is asking for trouble dont do that.got some late model 7mgte injectors from a mk3 supra they are 440's and are low impedence......... so takes some rigging to work but they drop in.as for radiator hoses ive always used the rb lower rad hose you might beable to use a ka lower but the upper is always custom.
