Project - Evil D (L28... err... RB25 scratch that CA18.... nope wrong again swapped SilEighty)

When I put my T28 I just grinded a mm away.....

Or you can do that...

mmm.... grind the manifold?? that might work... the mani is quite thick isn't it. I think I should do that... cause otherwise the piping is gonna be a bit weird. thanx I think I'll do a bit of surgery on the manifold... 😈 😈 😈

The piping will be weird anyway.

You will see! 😂 😂

true, but if i "clock" the turbo the piping will be showing down and not to the side... but ja... will check what I can do! 😈 😈

No not really, remember how mine was?

Yours will be exactly the same.

Oh ja, and don't forget to put a gasket in between the manifold and turbo, or use some gun gum atleast if you cant find a mani.

That will also give you a bit more clearance and the studs will fit.

And all the custom piping does fit just with a bit of a stretch.

Ah... ok.

Oh and the gasket I still got. so it should suffice.

thanx

Coolio! 😉

Now I just need to mod the actuator...

The one I have in the new turbo is bent to fit... the one off the t25 is straight... hammer anyone! 😈 😈

Riekert, just put the turbo in with its standard actuator. I got mine in and its boosting .6bar right through the rev range. Dont change the actuator until you have a problem with it.

if you grind that manifold then you will officially be a tjop!!! i will come find you and moer you with the grinder.

listen to hando...

its only a couple of degrees, so do it. you dont have to clock it 90 degrees or anything. and its easy - loosen a few bolts and turn it, then tighten the bolts - easy!!!

plus you need to do custom piping for the cooler anyway!!!

DO IT!

they got you!

i jump with joy

Listen to VC!!! You Tjop!!!

And no you dont really have to do custom piping, I put my standard piping back on and it worked. But it doesn't look neat.

next time read the small print!

OK OK!! I wont grind the manifold...

I'll clock the turbo...

Plus like VC said I 'm gonna run new piping.

Ok will do it over the weekend.

And riekert you take longer than eskom to fit those lights...

When can you shed some light on this subject?
