Your prerogative. Outside of juveniles, I haven't seen this in years - especially from someone paying a 3rd party to do the work.

Well kind sir, i would like to inform you that a very large amount of the work was completed by myself with the assistance of a few very talented individuals.

But nonetheless, thank you for your kind words.

Besides, it took alot of hard work and dedication, let alone blood, sweat, and a few tears to make this entire setup work.
No one is their right mind would go off and explain every single detail, hard work pays off, and now me and Gotham have a proven setup.
The point to all the madness was to push the envelope, we have, and sure as hell arnt stopping now.

More details later!

That looks awesome!

BUT, do you (or anyone else on this thread) know if these turbos have inconel turbines? My friend who used to work at Garrett warned me that a lot of the large diesel turbos may not be suitable for the rotary unless they have inconel turbines, since diesels run MUCH cooler exhausts than the rotary.

Yeah, I have bought several from them and re-sold them to some local guys....lol. What I do like is they are fully cnc'd, even the outside of the covers. Looks much nicer then the as casted version.

Also for the poster below, I think the newer BW's like the GT's use 713C inconel.
