started the ball rolling on my turbo IH build (now with fluxcore log manifold)
 
with some flange love. waiting for more $ to start the manifolds, i'm undecided whether or not to go with sch10 weld ells, black iron fittings, or regular exhaust mandrel bends for the turbo manis. more than likely i will go with the black iron fittings O0

going to run 2 s4 rx7 hitachi turbos, i got one flange cut, i'll work on the other one tomorrow. not using the split scroll, if i can't spool these turbos with 3200cc's and a carb dumping insane amounts of fuel, i'll go for one single horse sized holset or some diesel turbo.

bandsaw, dremel (air compressor dropped a valve) and torch made these. bench grinder to wire wheel/smooth the edges

and the exhaust flanges. 5 3/8" bolts hold these puppies on, i'll need some bracing :6

That's a thing of beauty. Not only is the ex. volute ghetto fab, but you properly hacked the ---- out of yourself.



Well played, sir!

you will spool these no problem. The series 4 had the smaller rear housing than the series 5, port your wastegate housing tho because the series 4 had one small port and were notorious for spiking where the s5 had two wastegate holes that solved that problem.

No one is going to be talking ---- here anymore. This is the fab forum not general discussion or the OG forum. I'll delete all ---- talking and keep this a build thread.
