Default Pinto Turbo, Progress

i've been planning on doing a pinto turbo for about 4 years now since i had my old capri, got a few bits together then but never finished it

now ive got a sierra and i've nearly got all the bits to do it

heres the car



i made my manifold today

its not pretty but bloody strong





my intercooler, just fits nice in front of the sierra rad with the ports coming out in the right place in the bay





my turbos and other bits, one turbo for mocking it all up and testing then i'll change it, theres also a fuel pressure regulator there off a renault 5 GTT, this is so the carb allways has fuel pressure higher than the boost



the boost will be getting blown down the top of my 38DGAS



i should be making the plenum for the top of the carb on friday so i'll keep the updates coming

thanks for looking
