Re: Modifing headers into a turbo manifold
 
i dont think you know what your getting yourself into when you think that a super charger will be easier, maybe a pre made one designed for ur car, but not HMT style.

i do agree with you, i dont know what im doing, but i have a fairly good idea, anyway the reason i wanted to do it was for the learning experiance.. dont think its worth turbo'ing this ride not yet anyway,

superchargers are piss easy because the m90 was fitted to my engine and there is plent of inletmanifolds for them....

anyway thanks for your time guys

yay im located in victoria, the eastern suburbs around Ringwood, Knox, nuddawadding unno those area's

i saw a turbo vn at the last aus revs meet, it was awesome running a fair amount of boost, was considering changing to a RB30 (VL block) because its easier, yeah might stick with the stock motor,

for this ive got a spare set of heads and various other engine parts, ready to be reconditioned suit forced induction

anyone from aus whose atempted this wanna give me some pointers???

rb30 is the gay
3.8 v's 3.0, no contest mate
i live three hours from you!

read up in the turbo section of the main page for ideas on boosting
just get normal headers, flip them, fab crossover pipe, mount turbo in the position of the airbox,
DRRRRIIIIIIIIIFFFFFFTTTTTT ;D

xternal, you in AUS? ???
