I made a couple of bits of tube today to match the exhaust manifold to turbo ports.
and then i will need to get a u-bend and flanges made to weld these bits to, to relocate the turbo.
(the shaded bits are the tubes above.)
The u-bend will be heat wrapped aswell as the down pipe.
Which brings me to the next hurdle, the back part of the turbo that the down pipe bolts on to, as now the down pipe is very much an up pipe as you can imagine since i've turned the back of the turbo 180 degrees
Heres a photo where the back part of the turbo is still attached.
as this part is cast i dont know if it can be cut and welded it would be a tricky operation and would have to be done by a pro.
I'm not sure what colour hoses i will be using yet i may just go with black as the two off the intercooler will be black anyway.
Has anyone got a 3500s rad going free or close to free near wales or leeds?
