Kit isnt complete, you still need dp, wastegate pipe, more intercooler pipes, etc..... Did u even get a wastegate?
IAN: i went with what jake said and it a .68 A/R so shouldnt be to bad.
Silverkill: Dp should be made this week alondg with dump tube, keeping stock intercooler for now, have a wastegate already,

UT7: Yeah I know but there are many different wheel diameters available for the 04 series turbos and the housing needs to match the wheel.
^^^Yep... you need to know what kind of exhaust wheel you have...
Dont worry, if it doesnt work, someone will buy it from you... How much did you pay for it?

Let me know how much everything cost once you get the kit in and running. I would like to get kit sometime too.

Are U Here 2 take My Baby
very cool. When i was ebayin a few weeks back bidding i put two of these kits on my watch list. They started out low like less than $100, but everyday it would jump at least $50. The kits i watch ended up being, one was 300 something the other was 400 something.I think u may have bidded at the wrong time, you prolly could have save a few bucks. None the less its still a killer deal anyway you look at it. I may go this route down the line for the intercooler and manifold pourpose, and maybe even the turbo if your project does ok. Best of luck and i hope all goes well. Ill definetly be checking on this thread.
im kinda doin the same thing, my friends and i wanted to see if their turbos were worth it, so we pitched in and im about to be up and running with one of the T70's they sell on ebay, im bout to order a turbonetics turbo for the one ill use later on, but i wanted to see what theirs would do as well
hey guys finally got my exhaust housing in and put it on. did some test fitting too on the manifold. well looks like the compressor housing is hitting so im gonna have to make a spacer or something. But the housing is a master power .68 A/R. It fit like a glove, so that one good thing. Came along with a V-band clamp and a fitting for a downpipe. Oh and if anyone has any ideas on the spacer i would appreiciate it.
thanks,
Tom Z.
oh by the way the intercooler and old exhaust housing are for sale...make me an offer if you are interested.

Heh, that is kinda funny, even thier own damned turbo doesn't fit on thier manifold. Have one here that a 62-1 will not fit on. Just buy a T4 flange. They are commony available 1/2" thick, should give you enough room...
Hey guys nothing to special to report here just got my 90 degree to start my DP from Jon at MDC. Looks great but i think its stainless and if so can i weld this to regular metal or no. Should I just go all stainless for a DP? If you look at the V-band for the DP it does seem to fit right, maybe its just me but the Vband looks a tad to big but maybe the weld will fix that. Ill post back when i finish the Dp.
See ya

thosu ebay ic's are steaming pile of poo
if you look at garret core or a sperco core there about eh saem really but you look at ebay ic what a joke they are they don't transfer heat worth shit when will peopel get it right
it's not eh size and how shinney it is it's all about how good of heat sink it is
Agree with outofstep do you have proof nashman? have you done a comparison test, pressure drop? lets see some proof before bashing the product. I have a spearco and a XS and the quality is the same I will do a thermal test when the install is complete.
yea i dont know what hes talking about the Intercooler for but what about the vband piece and that pipe is it ok it doesnt line up perfectly or is that bad? Some fillme in here
You can weld SS to mild.... I've done it.Untouchable7mgte said:
Actually, I've done exactly what you're doing now, with an exact same pipe from the exact same person.
man in order to get that t4 to spool correctly u should just replace the a/r with a new one...I did that and the turbo spools very nicely..
lol. kthxbye...
