In the pic above you can see the white on the side of the larger wheel from test fitting, seeing where it is to tight and adding clearance to the housing to get the profile just right. In this pic below you can see how much clearance isnt available when you install a turbo behind an 8v. If you look close you can see the 3" downpipe which is the size of the entire exhaust system i made.
The fronts run much larger pistons than the rear and with adjustable bias i can set it just right. It may seem like overkill but im building what should be a 10 sec 1/4 car with hillclimbs, track days etc being my aim i want the best i can afford to fit...
good to see something put to good use!
glad to hear the turbo gets you the power you wanted. Would be great to have that power bump with such a minimal increase in weight. Sounds like you will have plenty of fun on that closed private road of yours.
