Cool Another BW 475 Project...

Well after maxing out the GT35R, my brother sold it and we decided it's time for an upgrade. hopefully we don't max this out too soon.. LOL.

I was bored yesterday so i started tearing stuff apart and getting started on some fab work..
Well today i got quite a bit done and figured i would share some progress pics... I'll post them later tonight when i get home...

This is going to be an interesting project
I would like to see how far we can go with E85...

You shoulda bought the Bullseye 10" race cover. Its worth the money! Did you get the 83 or 96mm hotside?

Very nice setup. The BW475 (171702) is a nice turbo. You will enjoy it.

No reason too...you can buy the factory part # 177354 race cover and make the same power and more area under the curve for less money as well.

yep.. not opening this motor until it breaks.. hopefully the parts wont be junk when it does but since its factory seals im sure it will break very nicely and ruin everything.

any bets on how much power it will hold before it breaks lol ?
