Final finish work on BNR Stage 4

So, I have been obscessing over little details others probably think is a waste of time :-). I just think while its all apart, do whatever you can.

Here are some pics of the finish work I did to my BNR Stage 4 turbo...I am hoping that less carbon will stick to the smooth surface, it is normal practice in headwork.

Bah! you'll be blowing that carbon right out with that big *** turbo when is it going to run? I just got my stage 3 back from BnR about 2 weeks about .. can't wait to finish it up and get it running.

Here is what my Stage 3 looks like.


BTW; that polishing looks sharp, hope it proves to be well worth it.

The rear runner is a lot easier to work with. Still, I was surprised to be able to polish all of the 89+ TII exhaust manifold runners.

He he, since I keep obscessing- it will be a while before it runs Rpeck! I just got my rebuild engine yesterday; I am still waiting for my fuel system components from Jason (RX-7 Store) and AN hose and stuff I still need to ORDER from Summit .

I made a neat little gold anodized aluminum label that has "BNR STAGE 4" ground into it and screwed it into the little data boss, but I forgot to take a pic of the compressor face :-(.

Heres the turbo runners

The Exhaust outlet showed up well in the pics, but it was actually the least smooth area since I didn't want to "hog" it out.

And I did polish the compressor side as well. I wasn't able to polish the entire scroll, but I did remove some casting blemishes all the way through.
