Impressive, as always! How will you route the oil return line, with the turbo that low?

Welcome to the board Frix!

Oil return will run as it was before with the former turbo as its about as high or low as the other one was ;)

Looks great Walter !

Well thought out, and looks like the turbo was meant to fit there.
:cool:

Did you end up revising the down strut / cup brace ?

Sandeep

Thanks; well, I have removed it for now as it didn't fit at all anymore with the air intake in the way. I have not come up with another alternative then brace it through the firewall onto a cage support point in the rear...
Oh well, first have to finanlize the install completely with WG before I do anything drastic.

I also wanted to redo the piece of 2" pipe just after the intercooler (2,5" exit) and the T-split. The individual 2" pieces to the pressure hats can easily remain 2" imo, but making the intermediate bend from 2,5" just seems more logical:

Wally,
Check this divided housing fabrication.

Wicked nice welding for sure! Subies/Evo's and Honda's use the twin-scroll set-up a lot.
You're reading ricer forums now? :lmao:
j/k its a good thing to broadthen (sp?) our minds and apply new (although usually very old) tech to our engines/cars ;-)

You too!

...always know what you´re enemy is doing...:D

I agree! :D

Walter, what's with Your 1200 turbo engine and will you have thread here on GL forums about build? That downsizing stuff is very popular now :cheers:

I dunno if that would be a good idea, its not really in the spirit of max performance, though I am very exited about the project it myself tbh ;). Its slow progress too as it all costs still a lot, even if its type 1.

Meanwhile, some progress on installing/trial fitting the Tial wastegate, trying to outsmart the system by just using one WG by dividing the uppipe ;)
Divided pipe is now visible, of course needs to be shortenend and connected to both up pipes to turbine.

New wider pipe to the intercooler fits well too now, almost straight shot from the turbo :)

Looks like it´s getting tight in there now :shocked: I suppose there´s no way of locating the WG further upstream?

Just for the WG there would be room upstream just under the rear valence right after the 4-2 sections, but I saw no routing of the neccesary slicencer anymore then.

Getting close. I look forward to some new videos.

Yeah, coming saturday I hope to get the oil return outlet for the turbo and have the flange machined flat again as it has warped a bit after my welding...
Still the main downpipe silencer is not here yet and that needs lots of modifying too. Lots of work still.

Flange machined flat again after it warped after welding and the neat oil return flange:
