No just the side of the turbo not the hole turbo u cocky mother @!#$
|
|
|
|
ms-paint it up, I have no idea what you're talking about and I'm out of pancakes

|
|
|
|
So that the side of the turbo comes out of the hood not the whole turbo
|
|
|
|
Turbos are round. They have 0 sides.
:. I dont understand.

i think he may mean like the turbo is rotated 180* so that the impeller id sticking up... am i right?

|
|
|
|
Yes that is what i mean do you know how i can do it
|
|

Sunb1rd - love that car in the sig man 
To the poster - how do you do it? Get some good strong proper stainless tubes and a welder and a flange and go to town and make it - nobody makes a manifold like that. It would be a header with a collector pointing up and turned so the impeller faces forward like the drag cars do.
Custom work at its finest - but the question is - what's the point for a street driven cars? You want to build a squirrel-eater? I can see it now...
"Guys... how do you get squirrel bones out of the impeller?"

i think its less for the sake of mounting it that high and more of because usually the turbos are so huge there's no where else to put them
no use in sticking a T25 or a T3 60 trim out of your hood...
it would be like walking around in a wife beater but you have noodles for arms
