Fitting this: Turbo out and looking at the exhaust housing: The reason the cheap CHRA failed almost immediately after fitting: The locking nuts and nordloc washers lined up: This is literally the first time I've used a gasket here And the studs, nuts and nordloc washers in place for turbo to manifold: And the same for the dump pipe The two turbo's side by side in "supercore" configuration: And all back together and ready to go back in the hole: Didn't take it for a drive as I was too dirty and it's likely to overboot and it's too late at night. Booked in for a tune on 7th June Might add injectors, fuel pump and punch the cat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're asking if this turbo needs to make a lot of PSI, then the answer is no. It'll be fine for the application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
