Epic turbo build is epic

http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/racers...-describe.html

like this dumb *** ^^^^ i was at the dyno today and a truck they had in the shop someone just dropped off had the waste gate open atmospheric under the hood. Wasn't even an attempt to route it or have it somewhere that it was not blowing ~1600* exhaust gases on the motor.

Funny.

If it's not in a hot spot, functionally, I don't see the problem with home depot PVC charge piping.

no the rotation of the chra, its 90 degrees from where should be around
