I never caught it, what transmission are you using?

i think turbine a/r is pretty high. in the 80's if i remember well.... Who knows. MAybe it will kick ***, even if it,s not a GT30.

The largest t04e wheel is 58.17mm wheel while the GT30 is 71 or 76 mm. STill, I am sure it's good for 500 hp

damn, that's lookin' gangster...good job stickin' with it, and ignorin' the criticism...I have a lil boy on the way, and i keep tryin' to talk my fiancee into gettin' a station wagon(I'm sayin' either WRX or Saab 9five 2.3t) but she wants a damn SUV or extended cab 4dr truck...oh well, it's her insurance money buying it, and she'll have to keep gas in it...anyways, good work cous, keep us posted..

Finished the downpipe..... Its just 2.5" for now, didnt have any 3"



The compressor specs are...

compressor = 58 mm inducer, 76 exducer and the turbine is 56 mm and 64 mm

THen it's a stage 3 turbine wheel.
This thing will certainly pull very hard, Certainly some spoolup gains from doing this, but I still don't get why it would pull any more than the least flowing of the two compressors.
I am not saying not to do this; I actually can'T wait to see the outcome.

Same deal as the compound turbo setups the diesels use, where they stack two turbos in a row to boost 50-80+ psi.

Why am I doing this? I twin charged it already, both sequentually and in parrallel, with two superchargers. Neither setup worked because the superchargers are positive displacement fans, and it just doesnt work that way. So I decided to try turbo into supercharger, because this does work, at least in the right circumstances.

Originally I was just going to plumb in the stock Turbo Legacy turbo, but since I got lucky on ebay, why not try the big one?

So...

One, I said I was going to do it... Got to keep my word.

Two, I want to see if it works...

Three, the point of it working, is for insane low end....

and Four, it it doesnt work, I have ONE short pipe to fab and that eliminates the supercharger out of the equation.


And I am having a blast doing it!

Here it is "installed"

If I could weld aluminium, and had the oil line, the damn thing would have started tonight!






Notice how the turbo out goes so nicely into the supercharger!

Also notice how restricted my inlet to the turbo is

I plan on making a weird box thing with flat filter for the air box.....

rudebwoy

great progress. looking sweet, you probably gonna have to settle for a mesh over the compressor inlet, unless you are very good at fabbing to make air box, but either way good luck.

Since I didnt want to pay for someone to weld up the aluminium intake into the supercharger, I made my own.



If I could have gotten paid shop rate for the time I spent, I should have gotten the aluminium part done by someone else!!!!!

But.. Now I know I can weld 22 guage stainless!

The tubing is standard whatever SSAUTOCROME stainless tubing, the flange is 1/8" scrounged metal, and the rest is 22 guage (THIN) stainless. Needless to say, I had a few blow thoughs.... But in the end, what counts is how it works, and compared to the stock section, I would say 80%..... But since its being force fed now, 80% is closer to 95%....

Next step, oil lines......
