Looking great guys.

in for more!!!!!!!!

Question..does the car benefit if the charge pipes from the turbos are equal length? I know it's a benefit if the exhaust manifold runners are equal length but never thought about the charge pipes since twin turbo builds are very rare (and bad ass!)

you guys should cut some ducts in the fenders to the air filters. i guess you could do the hood too but i think the fenders would be more BA

cant wait to see how you will fit the second charge pipe, how well it will flow. imo its something that can make or break the look, but judging by the turbo manifold, you will have a perfect look.

On with todays updates

with the tight clearances we are working with 1\2 of the compressor housing was machined off and aluminum 90 degree piping along with 2.0 straight aluminum piping for the charge pipe. The room behind the valve cover was saved to run this piping as planned.





also the snout of the compressor housing was also machined off where a 90 degree elbow will be welded to it for the air cleaner. its necessary to do this in order to clear the strut towers. Also another reason why the turbo placement was so far back. it wouldnt have been possible to add air cleaners without clearance issues from strut towers.

Customer preferred to have the air cleaner tucked down and away





After recently test fitting the wheels the customer plans on running, we ran into issues that would result in backtracking some. The strut towers were originally notched to fit the engine mounts in the factory location. This resulted in less wheel turning radius turning towards the inside. No big deal so we designed and built a custom bracket to offset the engine mount so the strut towers could be reformed to stock appearance again.

it will be machine down and rounded off to match the drivers side once done. this is the rough base plate we made

This is nuts. I know what your going through though, my buddy has been building a suzuki swift gti awd turbo. Crazy work

[coke]

The whole intake system is a great engineering work!

Is it wrong that those pictures arouse me?

it would be wrong if they DIDN'T arouse you

That looks awesome, very nice work....
That's so bad that we can't do somthing like taht over here in DK, cant get it road legal with a modification like that....

[dav3design]

WTF?!!?

This is no longer an turbo manifold but a work of art!

[AndreasW]

I'm speechless...
