Got a bunch done today! For one, we got the “big” turbo “put” into the car (still have to bolt it down). It was unfortunately a bit bigger than expected and we had to lean the radiator forward about an inch to clear it. To do that, we cut the core support and made some aluminum brackets to pull it foward.
After that I started work on upgrading the catch can setup. The 1/4” baffled ports on the valve covers really weren’t allowing the engine to breath enough. So, we plugged those and installed -12AN bungs. Quite a bit bigger as you can tell.
Tomorrow we’ll finish up the catch can stuff, bolt the turbo on, and possibly begin modifying the down-pipe!
