I just sent BIC a PM. Damn you Poodles! You took the jewel out of my doughnut :cry:

Now I see what you mean. Shit! My pipe probably won't work due to the divorce pipe's small diameter. Damnit! That sucks. I really wanted to use this pipe. I'd hate to modify it since it's such a piece of art as is. What kind of adverse affects can I expect if the divorce pipe is too small?

Why do you say that? The previous owner of the turbo said he was using the regular DDP on it. But I can't really trust what others say. I'm gonna test fit it tonight and see...and cross me fingers.

I still have the garage for the time being, (not sure how much longer though), and I've been working on finishing up the project. I just put the turbo in over the weekend. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=92439 All help is welcome, but you absolutley must have mechanical...

No adapter required. It bolts right up to the stock exhaust manifold. However, a spacer is required to keep the inducer housing from resting against it. Supposedly, even the stock turbo elbow bolts up. I'm hoping this is true since I have a sweet, one piece, completely mandrel bent (even last 15...

Actually, I just used the lines from my older SupraSport Stage 3 turbo (non-Boss) that I had laying around. Other than needing to extend the 1/8 NPT fitting in the oil inlet, everything bolted up fine. What measurements do you need, line length or width?

I was told I could expect 750hp from this turbo; but from a 62-1, I highly doubt that. I was thinking more around 550 whp. Does anyone else know anything about these turbos?

Probably. I figure it should stay on for quite some time tho. I didn't realize how much of a pain in the ass it was to remove the inducer housing once the turbo was installed. When I painted it I thought I'd just do touchups when required. Now, who knows? So I hope it's durable enough to last a...

Well I finally got the time to actually install the turbo instead of just having it held on with two nuts mocked up. Here's what I started with: It's a bolt-on Turbonetics 62-1 T4 with a 4" inlet. Not sure how long they were produced, but both the inducer and exhaust housing sport the...

Not really feeling the digital interface. Watch Star Trek Next Generation much?

Thanks shaeff! That's the post I was looking for. You the man. Still, it'd be nice for someone to post pics of one mounted.

I'm in the process of trying to hide mine, but I'd rather not locate it inside the car (like the glove box for instance). I'd like some ideas on where it can be relocated, but still be at least somewhat easily accessible. I remember reading that some relocated it along the engine bay frame rail...

I have FFIM made from a 1JZ intake manifold. Just wondering what (if any) modifications need to be made to use the 7M's throttle position sensor on the 1JZ's throttle body.

First off, this isn't just some cheapo epoxy. It's aluminum based, chemically resistant, thermally conductive, and will even expand and contract with the aluminum. It is specifically designed for this sort of thing. I feel more confident using this stuff then just having the outside of the cover...

I just ordered some Aremco 568 aluminum epoxy. http://www.aremco.com/a7.html I'm pretty sure I should be able to fix the crack no problem with this stuff. It;s aluminum based and chemical resistent. Since the crack is too narrow to get anything in between, I plan on putting it along the...

Just the other weekend I saw a 87T listed on craigslist from a salvage yard. I noticed it had TT rims on it so I stopped by. It had 315 Michelin Pilots on the back and 235's on the front. The front have around 35% tread left, back are toast. I picked the rims up for $220 with tires. The car...

4" inlet. Beast. Inducer housing is so big and thick that it hit the manifold. I recently added a spacer and cut 60mm studs just to clear it. It's still a little close and I may need to add another spacer depending on how I need the housing turned to properly fit the actuator.

Ya think? :icon_roll

I wish it was that simple. But pulling the thermostat housing isn't going to help one bit seeing on how that water outlet is not located on it. It's part of the front engine cover. It's where the coolant return line runs from the turbo.

So pull the head, pull the front engine cover, flatten the block, redo head gasket, etc, ect. Not gonna happen. I need a fix where the housing stays where it is.
