alright guys. Turbo is mounted. All that's left is to do the carb hat, B.O.V., move the fuel line out of the way and do the gauges and exhaust downpipe and out the back. I want to run this car next week at the GS nationals with a bunch of other buicks there. I think it'll be fun being the only turbo six there (probably the only six there at all lol). Only problem now is the intake pipe is going to be very short so my question is can I run this without a blow off valve? I'm definately going to TRY to get the BOV on there but if all else fails, can I run it without?
rear view. There are all of those plates on top of the welded flange because I needed to move it up so it wouldn't hit the A-arm and I didn't want/need/know if I could cut the pipe and weld in a patch and have it work properly. So I bought a 2 more flanges and used them as spacers.
The wastegate
hopefully a better picture of how the wastegate is mounted.
