Here are the pics of my new turbo. Hopefully I will have it running tomorrow night. I have it next to the ihi for comparison.

------------------
Glenn 88TC
current mods (13.809 at 98.48mph): ported & polished big valve head(1.89/1.59), ranger roller, gutted upper and ported lower intakes, t3/t4 turbo, MSD 6al, MSD Launch Control, K&N filter, Walboro 255 pump, Kirban adj. fuel reg., ATR header, full 3" exhaust with Dynomax Ultraflow muffler, Star stage III ceramic clutch, Tiny Avenger bleed valve, Weld Draglites with M/T ET Street 26x11.5/15

Winter 2001-2002 upgrades - powerstroke intercooler(mounted full size or it won't be going in), 65mm throttle body, 42lb. injectors, custom grind roller cam, big turbo, rear suspension upgrades
NO TC and NO headaches.

Thanks Glenn, now I'm going to suffer from Turbo envy, is my turbo just adequate, will my wife leave me cause I have a small turbo, does size really matter, etc. [Image: biggrin.gif]

NICE! But in that last pick Glenn a couple of turbine fins look funny.
Maybe just the pic.
After my beefed up A4LD project, a big ol fat turbo is next.

That is just some ink marking the wheels size. The compressor wheel has it also.

Maybe you have said something before and I missed it, but what means of boost control are you planning on? It kinda looks like the exhaust housing is set up for an integral wastegate, but I should expect that you will be running an external jobbie, possibly a Turbonetics piece?

Glen,

Let us know how you like it, boost threshold, etc. It looks like it belongs on my car, turning green with envy. [Image: smile.gif]
