Good ----. I was completely ready for this thread to be a story with no pictures, but you pulled it off in true gangsta fashion. :)

that rhi is a good turbo since those vws' don't rev as high
setup looks good. i'd put a dsm side mount intercooler at ground level, next to the turbo just for cooler intake.

Re:A different HMT install

thats ------- rad man!!!! does it break em loose in first now 8)

Re:A different HMT install
 

truely a nice hmt setup and damn that engine bay is asking for something huge

Re:A different HMT install
 

For the IC we want to use the MX6 one, but the AC has to be removed, and the front end has to come off to get at the evapourator coil. We where running late to begin with and that just seemed like to much work at that time.

As for breaking them loose, YES! If your on the throttle traction is close to nothing in first gear. The car isn't fast but still much faster than it was. I want to see him go a VR6 golf for a good comparison.

Did that mx6 manifold bolt right on? Nice setup btw! Nice to see something different.

Re:A different HMT install
 

Shouldn't the MAF go on the outlet side of the turbo?

He modified the stock VW one, welded a turbo flange on it.
