Default Someone's getting a nice Turbo installed?

Probably noticed I am doing a little research into turbos at the moment as I plan on building a nice garage and putting a turbo into my car.

Found this whislt searching, some nice work anyone on here?

Cool looks like good work, bet it would work out cheaper buying a greddy kit.

My mate has a garrett turbo and its something we really looked into at one point (we discussed it alot). We'd have to fabricate everything from new which he's more than capable of I'd help but it would cost too much (more than a 2nd hand unit anyhow).

Looks like a nice job, hard to beat a full race manifold mind.

Thats a shame must ask Eric if he thinks he can make them up for rhd cars. Have used his stuff in the past and it's always performed superbly. Their new twin scroll kits are fantastic.

What manifold bolts straight on a rhd ?
