This is the current status, Its a slow process...



As you can see I'm building a 20B, will be streetported...



Now I'll be going for a single...



The question is, wich one? The car is for street usage, better to have 500hp from 4000 rpm than 650 from 7000rpm..., I was thinking about a HKS T04Z with the 1.0 A/R exaust.. will this baby be to small or not? I'm shooting around 500-600hp, driveability comes before peak hp...



Sorry for my bad english

Hehe thank you,



Something homemade, made it in 5 mins from a old VW tool wich was lying aroud.. just made to hole slightly bigger and welded a rong on it



I just took some pictures!



I also have a question about the 2 rear side housings, as you can see, they had water, now at the very bottom the chrome look is away, do I need to let replolish them or would fine sandpaper clear the job?



Another solution is that I maybe can buy a FD engine for almost noting and use those side housings..?



Btw, can you reopen the tread about your Whipple 20B, looked very nice!



Greetz



edit: forgot to say I uploaded the pictures

Thanks for uploading some pictures of your puller.



Use a razor blade. Scrape through the rust und see if the nitrided surface has been damaged/softened. I've seen some waterdamaged plates that were so soft I could scrape the metal away with a fingernail.

For a 20B?

You'll maybe make 500...maybe 600 if you turn the boost up high enough.

Hmmz,



I'm searching for the ideal turbo, low rpm torque and top en hp...



I only scared that the T04Z will choke the engine above 7000 rpm.. anyone tried this combo before?
