Default Tuner Toys write-up of our current project. Check it out, and be nice.

So I wanted to do a good write up of a turbo install.... I also wanted to showcase some of our products while doing the install.

I figured I would do this in a blog, so that it can get indexed to some of the more popular search engines. That way when people search on Google for DIY Turbo projects, our blog might pop-up in the search results, and they could see our write-up, and see our products in action.

Oh Man! Documenting a project sure adds to the time it takes to complete the project! I've done more picture taking and typing than I have done fabrication work on this thing.

You can see some of the results here - http://tunertoys.blogspot.com/. So far it covers the teardown of the car (in great detail), and the installation of the oil feed line. I have also covered the pros and cons of using the HF manifold vs a log manifold.

I know I may have missed some stuff, which I know you guys will gently point out to me. But I hope you guys approve of what I have done so far, and provide constructive feedback.

AND BTW Jeff, those are my hands in the pictures, actuall doing the work myself. Believe it or not. : )

A turbocharger is a supercharger. Turbocharger is a easy way to say turbine driven centerfugial superchager.

Oh no.

It's Y-49.

No good can come of this. I won't even park next to one of those, afraid the curse will rub off.

dude craig where is the sweet part were you welded up a log manifold together because the hf mani one sat to low, then after you spent all the time grinding the welds down and did your first test fit you realized it was a b-series mani you made and not a D, hahahha
