Whatever happened to Ric/Racing Mazda?

 

I haz new toy.

Comparison: Old 2554 on the top, slightly used KTR110 on the bottom. Muahahaha!



Needs rebuild and exhaust housing but is purty anyway.

 

Insert compressor housing A into compressor inlet B......IT FITS!!!


I bet you won't try to get it running in the Miata...

 

Planning a big block Miata build?

 

I bet you cant get it spooled to 8psi at 5k. lol

Not that one (Caterpillar sucks, btw) but another one (Japanese engines are better). One making only 496hp at 1,800 rpm but 1,620ft lbs of torque at 1,350 rpm out of 15.24 liters of engine.
It is actually a pretty good size turbo for my 7.6 liter Pontiac engine in the old GTO, muahahaha!

(I'm watching Westworld right now. It contains what I believe to be the first computer-aided visual effect in a motion picture.)

 

The same people who did the Last Starfighter did the opening to the Labyrinth:
