16V turbo installation pics...



This is one time I'm really jealous of the 16V. You guys have incredible
room for the turbo! I'm backed into a corner and will have to make my own
exhaust manifold to fit the T3/T04E on my 8V.
I suppose the good news is I can build a turbo manifold for the GRM car for
$100 in materials instead of buying a cast one for $275.
Really nice installations guys! Course nobody's seen any pictures of Neal's
installation so I guess we don't know if his is nice or not! hint hint
