Default Ok started makin chargepipes... and my turbo

Ok well at least i have some pics... I used mandrel bends and a 130a mig welder to weld them together. The welds arent the cleanest but seal good and seem to be strong. That is a 1g dsm bov and the stock flange i cut off of the stock lil chargepipe and welded it on... that was kinda a pain in the ***, it leaked the first time i welded it so i might have to tack one little hole in the side. That turbo is my Garret T3 .60 .63 ar turbo, no shaft play, it was a decent find on ebay ($160 shipped) i clocked the compressor housing like 35* (did it after these pics were taken) so the chargepipe will clear the radiator. Ill see if i can get more pics later.




thank you newbieforces
