Default How are my fins looking?

I swapped to a different housing this weekend on friday because I wanted to run a clamp on type air filter instead of chrysler's strange setup. Thank you custom coach, anthony is simply great to work with.


Anyways here are two shots of the fins that I took. I was glad to see no damage, well that I could tell. I beleive I have about 1mm of shaft play 2 at most. I'm not sure if that is normal for these or not but everything looks rebuilt. The turbo has been sitting a long while in an attic.





Oh one bonus shot of the intercooler bolted in, I started on my charge pipes, Its comming along...just slowly since I'm at college and can't be at home to work all the time now

Looks good. Thanks for the kind words. 1 MM of play is normal on all turbos, they have that much new. I thought you hade an old Caddy from the title of the post

If you can get a volvo or saab housing, those Chrysler housings suck to work with.

I'm really digging that FMIC on your car, looks nice!

The turbo is off of a chrysler 2.2... its the aireasearch M-10

The housing I bought from customcoach (anthony) I'm not sure what its off of but its a garett. He knew better than I what would work on this.

I'm using a downpipe from a dodge 2.2 turbo car. Again CustomCoach was the supplier of this

Everything should be ok with the housing Jeff, but I can see on your setups why it would be so difficult to work with. With mine it should be alright, I will need to drill out some metal to bolt it to my T3 flanged manifold.

Thanks for the compliments, and I love that fmic in the bumper too...fills that huge nasty gap between the bumper and the radiator.
