i had a 3 ply blow on me when I used to cruise around at 16 lbs. I don't know how long it actually took to finally go, but it was probably like a year of daily driving. Turned up the boost for a small race with a buddy and he was actually keeping up with me in his camaro. Biggg boost leak!

Im sure it would only cost like 25 bucks to have someone tig that elbow on. Any ways good luck!

I tig son..... i know whats up here!

joewitafro 07-19-10 11:39 PM

nice. Then you know its cake walk :) My teachers were really worried about the weld cracking upon cool down so I left it in the booth to cool for about 2 hours. No damage done :)

(2) out of the (3) straps broke off lol.
The straps are there to absorb the TQ from the drivetrain maybe be you are making some serious TQ#s:woohoo:
Mine was rated for 632 TQmine broke around 5XX rwtq, and ACT wanted to see my Dyno so they can cover it under Warranty, but i've never printed the sheet after the Dyno.
You can get it rebuild and keep it as a spare:thumbup:

I see. Looks very nice.

Damn that's a real mans turbo. Did you use the driveshaft that you already had on your car? I assume so. I been reading these up and people throw in something about SC400 driveshafts here and there. I wish I was good enough to do all this myself and that quick.
