    slant supercharger on Alibaba

    farting around on Alibaba.com and I found this ad pic of a supercharged slant. Pic look familiar, Torqstorm? Odd that they (Dongguan Xiexu Hardware Products Limited) would use this RG platform to market their turbo systems......advertised 100-150HP over stock. Custom Oem Factory Centrifugal...

    Throttle body sizing for turbocharged LA

    Turbocharged 273. Built a sheet metal intake for a TB and injectors. What size TB should I install for a 9-12 psi build? Hoping for maybe 380-400hp. I was thinking maybe 60mm-ish off something so I could get the IAC and TPS all in one piece. MS2 with 33 lb injectors. Street duty only.

    turbo wastegate seat erosion help

    My CT26 turbo integral wastegate seat is burned so its leaking boost. Just looks like its eroded or burned. Do you think a 31mm copper exhaust seat cut for and pressed in would survive? Its where the flapper sits inside the hot side.

    DIY TIAL wastegate

    just throwing this out for some flame fodder: Looking at a TIAL wastegate and I find they are upwards of $700 for the larger ones. If I was to make one out of...(insert Sanford and Son theme)...a large exhaust valve, a slant six water neck and a wastegate valve actuator? The whole setup is an...

    turbo orientation

    Why cant a turbo face up? If you have the oil return facing down, whats the issue? My holset says +-10 degrees from horizontal mounting specs, just dont know why.

    Im looking for 1 Holset HX30 turbine "split ring seal" or piston ring. Its the large one of 2 for the entire turbo, also 1 journal bearing. The rings are 35 for 2 and the bearings are as much! The whole rebuild kit is $35 shipped. Does anyone sell these seperately? Id imagine the ring as about...

    Old Skool....

    Just ran across this pic, thought it was the ultimate turbo on the cheap...draw through! I dont get all the dynamics of a draw through, just the fact that you can bolt up a TQ is cool. Where is the blow off valve going to go, or the wastegate blowing raw fuel into the exhaust? Sounds......fun!
