Noob welder(mig)
 
Just got this new mig welder a couple days ago( i helped out in a local garage for the day cause the dudes other mechanic called out and he gave me the mig as payment ;D )after messing around for an hour or 2 and basicly teaching myself me and my buddy (Towdogg) decided to give it a shot and actually make something out of a bunch of crap we had lying around

Re: Noob welder(mig)
 
Top mount will never spool.

Im pretty much positive because Ive done it before on a weak 16 with a h1c holset.

No boost until 3rd gear. Then it took off.

Re: Noob welder(mig)
 
well this is gonna be one of those trial and error things so ill try it out thanks though

rosario4124 01-21-2008 11:32 PM

Re: Noob welder(mig)
 
i think it might work though.....not to mention the size of this turbo it spools up when i move it across the room lol ;D .....it only looks big cause of the v-band

Im almost positive that it will spool. Im running a TO4 40 trim top mount setup just like this on my a6. My TO4 makes that thing look like a rhb5. Ok im done with my little rant......lol

By the way mine starts to make boost at 3k and im at full boost by 5k. (in second gear ;)) Only makes about 6 psi in first. lol

Didnt realize the turbo wasnt that big. The v band did throw me off.

I still wouldnt expect quick spool at all in lower gears though.

Good luck, looks like something id build. And I have lol.
