Default Arrived at last! (pic)

Woo, jus got this email from robbie with a pic attatched to show my (final) turbo has finally arrived



Its safe to say, its not small (bearing in mind the inlet is 4" you can tell how big it is altogether )

Im chuffed as looks ace (no fancy polished housings, instead a efficient weapon of a thing, on turbos its whats on the inside that counts )

Adus- Lees IS bigger, but only very slightly, but bigger is pointless if hes not gonna have the power it can give him I bet il have full boost 1000rpm below his too...

LOL@Spikey and Rhys, i said the inlet is 4", and beaing in mind the comp housing is an extra 2" or so either side of that you can tell how big it is.
And i think the 900bhp rating is a hint too, lol (Bearing in mind a T61 like Ryans is rated to about 600-650), tho the most so far is just over 930bhp from this turbo.

Oh dear. That doesn't sound good. From the pic it is a Precision Turbo.

I'm sure Steve has done loads of homework to get him that far though,

No sunny, its a IHI
Yea course it is, its written in big letters on the housing

Chris- Lots of homework is an understatment, more than i ever did at school thats for sure. Every single person, be it tuner or owner (of 100s of cars, from Supras to Yank Tanks), steered me towards them, and its not the usual GTQ one either, its a GTS wheeled weapon of one.
Should see full boost (ie 2bar+) by 4500 and seen plenty of Supras run mid 140 terminal speeds on exact same turbo without gas, so thatl do.

I am not actually aware of any issues with these turbocharger units however as it's Steve I posted that just to make him a tad paraniod.

btw - Don't knock IHI, they make some exceptionally good turbo's!
