My First Turbo Maxima

[blaast]

Hey! I did not have the patience or the time to take pictures during the whole building process but at least here's a few shots of the final result.

I know, pool piping adds a Getho touch but it's the most flexible 1" ID piping that I found for the momment!!

I built that turbo from scratch.

I used a T4 turbine with 1.00 a/r that has a T3 flange on it. it's a "O" trim, which is barely larger than stage 3. I think it comes from a volvo diesel truck.
The compressor is a T04B V trim (63 trim) with 0.60 a/r. this compressor is also used on diesel machinery such as loaders, generators and compressors.
Flow charts and my experience with similar units tell me that we are good for 450 HP easy with that turbo.

We are not even done tuning the E manage unit and the guy is already boosting on it and it performs well. I know it's funny but I eared of other guys boosting as much as 8 psi on this engine with NO MANAGEMENT AT ALL!! defeintely not a honda !! :lol:
The car definitely kicks ass and we have no problem with it. No Bugs, no leaks, no rattles. Just as if we did nothing to it.
Will definitely let you know of the performance and driving impression when I figured out how to tune that emanage thing..
MAybe even Dyno charts if I talk the customer into it.
