Can I make a home made turbo also. I heard it could be done. I just can't figure out how yo make the housing. I got the fins made out of a pop can and other cool stuff.

you would have to have a cast, it would cost a lot of money for the tools and wouldn't be worth it unless you were going to mass produce them and sell them.
