Default Re: Budget Turbo Build... From the ground up

well... started on the manifold... just have to make the turbo flange and exit... and smooth the rest of it out....



some of the welds are smoothed out...



gonna open up the exhaust ports and make them nice and flush... I did end up using the stock manifold flange... i'll just have to take it and have the manifold plained when im finished...



and my head came today...



pretty complete for $90



and for giggles...



tell me what ya think so far....

and can someone help me out w/ the location for the manifold dump/turboflange? ive seen quite a few different variants and dont know which route to go...

thanks

-UPDATE-
smoothed out the rest of the welds today... and started on the dump/turbo inlet piece... should have this manifold finished by tommorow... and i steam tanked the head while i was at it.... so very little cleaning will need be done before i start my port work...

here's the pics...








i cut out the turbo flange as well... its not perfect... but it'll do... no pics of it yet... i'll post up the finished piece tommorrow...

Thanks
