Awesome pics, gotta see the turbo finished!  Is it self oiling, or do you have to run a supply and drain?

I'm starting on the turbo Exhaust manifold and plumbing. For now I got the hot side flanges welded on.

I started the turbocharger install this afternoon. I made the exhaust manifold and mounted the turbo. Next will be the charge plumbing and oil lines and exhaust. It sounds good now

A little more work today. Started doing the oil lines and removed the air filter housing.

Are you going to put the carb in a pressurized box. Not all up on the turbo stuff but heard with a carb it should be in one.

Looks better without the garbage bags on front wheels.

 

Seriously though....it’s awesome.

How much boost are you planning on and how are you handling fuel pressure?  I imagine this might be part of the reason why Richie asked about a sealed box?  I’m not sure, as I’ve never heard of that method, but I do know that boost pressure can overcome fuel pressure and essentially starve the engine of fuel.

Not much boost cause I'm pretty sure the 2 piece onan intake would Explode.

You can use a rising rate pressure regulator and an electric pump or a matching pressure system - either one isn't cheap but they do work. I'd prefer a blower myself, much easier to work with and I love the sound, lol.

I was looking at the boost compensating regulators. I will probably go that route with an electric pump

I got the oil lines ran today and also the charge tubes. She now has boost. NEXT it to get the new rear in and the upgraded fuel system. And also got all Terry's A+ decals on it.

That’s so cool!!! 

Well built and looks very professional with no haphazard work. Everything looks to be where it should and seems very thought out with no just throwing parts at it. 

You should challenge Azn and Farmtruck to a mower drag race on Street Outlaws!!!
