thats a fancy looking turbo whats the spec and expected power figures? aceraf is right. turbos are soooo especially in a car thats not meant to have one causing confusion for the people that hear the hiss from the dumpvalve as it passes

well it depends on how much power you want to get out.. but to build an "sneak" as we call them here i sweden doesent take much.. just build an manifold and the little bigger injectors and a intercooler.. then you can easiley boost it with 0.5bar (7.5psi) and get around 250hp (on a m20b25)

thanks... the turbo is from a volvo truck its good for 750hp
i run a stock bottom so i will be happy if i get around 480whp "this year" next year i will get forged pistons and rods and up the boost a little bit and hopefully get around 550-600 in the wheels

hey of course.. i defenetlly think that you should put a turbo on that cab,
(edit. what engine do you run?)
it all depends on what kind a turbo setup you want... the setup that we call sneak here in sweden is a really basic one.. just build an collektor for the turbo and use an m535 airflowmeter (or as we call it LMM) and a little bit bigger injectors. put a intercooler on and you are almost ready to go..
the setup im using is a little bit more advanced. i have lower compression. and "o-ringed" engine block not sure is called the same in english but its a steal thread that you put around the cylinder "holes"
like this
siemens deka injectors. 680cc
kkk29-turbo
all the engine parts are balanced and weight tested
custom made exhaust manifold
tial 38mm wg -- x2
50mm tial bov
badass intercooler
original intake manifold
arp head studs.
the head i pretty original (plans are to change the rockerarms,harder springs,titanium retainers, and race valves, and the fully port it)
with this setup i can rev it to 9500rpm
