Turbo BS Thread

Your neighbors must love you

 

I can't hear them complain about it when its running, thats for sure hahaha

 

Sorry can't hear you over this sweet Toyota 4cyl

 

For 1st gen V6 Auto guys, what did you do with your transmission dip stick?

 

No more oil leak! Not sure if it was the new seal, or clocking the the housing a little less.

 

Bravo. Probably both.

 

I know it wasn't meant for me, but I have the same manifold and downpipe.
They line up perfectly. Didn't have any issues with fitment. Just used a new donut gasket at the end of the downpipe and it was easy breezy.

 

That's good to know. What model turbo did you end up using?

 

I had one hole that needed to be moved a tiny bit and it was a pain to get some of the nuts on but yeah overall it fit and I was surprised how well it lined up on the bottom in. I'm using a Garrett gtx2860r

 

I went with a gt2871r for now. Looking at one of the new G25-550 turbos, or a newer GTX3017r hybrid so I can do the T51R mod for sex noises.

 

The T51R mod is soooooo much sex

 

Can't wait til I mount mine up. So much work to do.

 

Made a little extension bracket. Lemme see if I have pics.

 

Please and thankyou!

 

Not sure if you can tell, but its basically a 45 bend off the block out like an inch or so to match the bend on the dipstick. Works good and doesnt bind, nothin fancy.

 

Are you running the waste gate runner? Looks like no.

 

waste gate runner? I'm not sure what you mean.

EDIT: nvm you mean the little pipe that comes off it?

 

I am, I just shortened it and angled it out the fender.

 

Thats probably what I need to do. That's primarily what is in the way. Pics on that?

 

Yes, but those will be a bit, gotta charge up the old phone.
