Bolt on Turbo Trans Am turbocharger - 09/13/13 12:23 AM
Just got this recently. It is not usable the way it is.
Not exactly sure what I am going to do with it.
I am thinking to make a mock-up engine & fab an up-pipe & down pipe to fit in my Camaro & should be able to fit other chassis.
It is from a 1981 Turbo Trans Am 301 4.9 Liter turbo V-8 car.
I figure it might be a little more suitable(I.E. bigger turbo) for more power on a stock style 250 engine than an older 3.8 turbo V-6 draw through set-up.
This will be another slow project. Will work on it in my little spare time I have.
I have been suggesting for members here to bolt on one of these turbo set-ups for fairly cheap turbo install & want to see first hand what all is entailed to do so. Can't be too hard.
Here are some pics.
