[thesandymancan]

that is an odd choice of intercooler pipe routing, but i guess the 7m is just as strange.

LOL! Greg has been swearing by this motor for two years now...

It is a nice motor, and I wouldn't mind seeing one in a mkiii.

That is awesome.

I like the Trailblazer. Or at least how they look. Turbocharging is a good idea as far as I am concerned.

I thought somebody had done one already, read about it in Motor Trend a few years back.

Is that the one in the Nova that was in the HotRod Mag Pump Gas Drags?

Thats the pic ive been looking for to post in this thread

Maybe my chevelle might get one of these instead of an ls1 :evil2:

Hope that Donkey Dick inlet hose is smooth bore!

A mate saw quite a big loss on the dyno using one as the internal ribs disturb airflow into the Compressor!
(My guess is the twist is backwards to the turbo rotation)

Here's a thread jack! IJ; Does the water really go down the drain the opposite direction "down under" than in the northern hemisphere?:biglaugh:

 

[IJ.]

Breeze: Yes it does!

Was the first thing I check when I came to the Northernhemisphere as a kid !

I remember John Moss did one a few years ago with twins, and it was "estimated" at about 550 crank on a stock block, and they were using a stock AWD system, so it really put down the power.

GM decided not to go this route.. Bummer.

What GM needs to do is make this a reality in a RWD or AWD sedan..

Good fuel mileage, and great power in a smooth motor they have parts for right now...
