I am totally stoked to finish this now, except mine wont be as pretty, since its 80% made from left over propane gas piping, and scrap parts. After work I am headed to harbor frieght for more shitty welding wire to finish up.

"Look ma, no head.."

My friend Wassem made a jet engine in high school, like 9th grade. Crazy Lebanese! I forget which turbo he uses.
|
What should I use for the charge piping... here are some ideas I came up with.
-PVC -welded up steel pipe with small coolant hoses for couplers -or just coolant hosing for the whole charge pipe |
If/When that thing spools you're going to shit bricks then die:giggle:
|
I would just use coolant hose the whole way. It holds 14 psi of coolant.
|
Do up a powerwheel!

FYI those tiny ass turbochargers are a mitsubishi TD02 footprint . They are pretty hard to find, but occasionally they pop up on ebay.
Edit: I'm the shit and get tons of bitches. Td02 for sale Specs: MHI P/N : 49130-01700 / TD02MR2-035K-1.9S Comp. Wheel : 25.77 / 38.99mm Turbine Wheel : 26.42 / 34.06 mm Bearing System : Journal Bearing Cooling System :Water |
Someone (maybe even me, I don't recall) posted up a go kart with a turbo from a Smart a while back. The compressor is something like 20mm IIRC. They are available on ebay for $125 or so.
EDIT: It was the turbo shopping cart thread. https://www.miataturbo.net/showpost....64&postcount=9 |
:laugh: ! I laughed when i saw the cart ... then the lawn mower.... i agree epic thread!!!! bahaha. I know it's no go cart but i put a td04 on my 03 r6 when i was 19 i didn't think about changing the gearing either it was cool but not as fun to ride without new gears :( front end lifting up at 80 is no bueno.

This reminds of the Turbo bar stool
http://sdsefi.com/features/stool1.jpg http://sdsefi.com/features/apr00stool.htm One of my neighbors a few years ago had one, had no clue how fast it would go, or even what it felt like to be on. He bought it because he wanted to watch his dumbass drunk friends wreck it when they got the ballz to climb aboard. I recall two drunken curb flips while I was living there. |
that is pure fuckin awesomeness!
