That's sick robert. Vmount FTW. Now crank the boost up since your air and water will be cooler Look forward to seeing it in person. Those welds looks sweet.. would love to be able to weld like that.

The support was cut to fit the v mount but we replaced it with a chrome moly crashbar.. That will support the same area.

Hey Mike,
The wastegate has a port running through it.

That turbo is worth more than my car. Even your V-band clamps are blingworthy. Like that bead-rolled I/C duct too.
Interesting airbox solution to feed the turbo. Looks like quite a challenge to shoehorn all that stuff in there.
Are you done with mods yet?

It never ends for any of us. Part of the fun. More over, Robert is simply the poster child.
