Well here's what I started with.........


After about 250-300mi I had to do this do to a few bad gaskets, mainly the headgasket.


Now I get this back, It's rebuilt and balanced



Next I get to tear this apart yay!!!!

Turbos that small have no place in this world.

Already even got a bigger snail than that and a turbo header.

Post lots of pics going back in!

Yeah yeah yeah... I know it's tiny, but I'm not going to be doing much to this car my big boost car will be my 3rd gen sorry.

Minion........I've always liked your bird, and can't wait to see what it does at the track. Are there any tips you can give me to give it a lil more power without spending much. like how much boost will this thing handle stock with a boost controller? And who should I go to for a chip maybe? I don't know much about this motor at all lol

JBP is a little too expensive for my tastes... plus they are only your friend if you have a V6. Unless you are going big, you shouldn't need any computer work. Get some decent exhaust on it and crank it up to around 17psi.. that seams to be the magic point, the air is too hot beyond there. With a front mount, a MAP bleed and an FMU, you should be able to hit the boost safely. Keep an eye on your EGTs.

Why are you replacing it?
If you want a BRAND NEW one, I can't help you, if it is broken I can send you a used one from one of my parts engines.

Minion....I e-mailed you about that piece, I do need it. The one I have has all three studs broke off in it. So shoot me an e-mail, and let me know what you would want for it and the three studs.

Thanks,
Jason
