Not sure, it's starts. But I think he's finishing up oil pump and lines. I think he's done.. Not sure

[CrispyFries]

The old rear mount turbo trick ay? Cool

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

great idea but still the return piping/intake will give the game away unfortunately

[Odium]

Never understood about rear mount turbos? Whats the point? It'd be laggy as hell right?

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

not with a large capacity V8.

great idea for stealth / room / MASSIVE turbo's

[Sunkist]

Nah can't see anything with the way the soarer front bar is designed. Nah won't be laggy at all. Should be like a normal engine mounted turbo.

Scott's done a brilliant job as well. I'm sure he'll see this and post pictorials, if he wants

[Odium]

Ohhh yeah we've got little fast baby turbos...

Big turbos have already got a bit of lag, and with the volume of air they're blowing the pipe lengths are not even a consideration in comparison

[Sunkist]

Correcto.

And it's a 4li v8. The turbo is instantly spinning on startup.

[Plattsy]

it looks the balls. stealthy as all shit. think it was waiting on his tuner last time we were there?

[Sunkist]

Cihan? Lol yeh I think so. I didn't know whether he had finished the oil/water component.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

It's definatley something I would look into if I had a 1UZ

[Sunkist]

I don't know if Scott wants them posted yet. So wait for him.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

pfft...

[scotty nm35]

Still waiting for the Emanage to be installed...

[Odium]

Should have gone for external gate

How are you venting heat from the boot?

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

Also, do you run an intercooler?

I have seen some rear turbo setups but no intercooler...

But the turbos were mounted under the car so it cools the turbine / exhaust housing as you drive.

[scotty nm35]

It is external gate...

As the turbo is 4-5M back from the engine it shouldn't get too hot, there will be a heat shield over it all, and hopefully carpet back over the lot. I have to test it with an infra-red thermometer on the dyno first.

[scotty nm35]

The cooler is 220 x 100 x 700, front mounted and sprayed black. You can't see it from the front of the car thanks to the large fins on the bar, and the long nose.

I wasn't going to fit one, I wanted him to just run ethanol for det resistance, but the tuner was a little worried.

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

I see!
