I bought some turbos a week or two ago.
They showed up today.
I guess the lesson learned here is "ask for more measurements when someone tells you a turbo has a 65mm compressor wheel."
But seriously... anyone here chasing like.... an 8 second quarter mile or something?
post some pictures.
Working on it... had to take a break after i unpacked the first one. Kindof tiring.
They weigh 27lbs each.
Twin Turbo Javelin? 
Well, I've got an HX35. Its pretty damned massive (for car use) probably not that large when taken in context with the diesel pump motor it came off of.
It was fun having it on the bench next to a bunch of other parts when my 924 turbo buddy came over. His reaction was pretty hilarious....

Yeah no.... i've had an HX35 or two. Thing bigger. Way bigger.
Like... HX52 big.
Best use for a huge turbo. Just add mini bike chassis.

Took pictures, gonna have SWMBO edit and get them ready to upload. Got some tape measure shots, as well as a comparison or two against a Supra CT26 exhaust housing, which isn't exactly... "small" in the grand scheme of things anyways.
Price? What sort of engine would they work with?
I'm trying to talk snowdoggie into turboing his Metro 
Steve, message me after I get the pics up if you're still seriously interested. 
These are brand new, came in their original boxes.
Were they challenge priced? there could be a twin turbo big block something in your near future. 
In reply to Zomby woof:
That's not gonna work at all. Unless... You swapped a v8 into it?

Not gonna lie, i started supra shopping before i came to my senses.
Depends on your definition of challenge price. You could get one on the right car in budget, but i'm not letting them go for $50 per or anything lol.
Think it will blow enough air for a 8 liter V8.

R2800 Pratt & Whitney?
Supra CT26 exhaust housing in between the two.
That's a 750mL bottle of gin.

You made me LOL.
I'd take one for the Skyline (obviously I'd have to tune it down), but I don't have the cash currently. Plus I still need that new chassis.

I have buddies in St. Louis. You should buy one now just for that reason.
40,000 cfm paperweight?
I have to ask what kind of creation you had in mind when you placed that order?
You'll need to log in to post.
