What type of turbo is that?Damn that thing will almost be as nuts as the 3 rotor AE86. Or this AE86: Might need to copy and paste the links tho.



















PS - these are being hosted from someone elses Imagestation account, so they're gonna be fussy about working

See if you can re host those somewhere else. I can't get them to work, and I'm curious about what the pics are of.





As far as the turbo goes... I don't know the exact specs. I know that it is a 60-1 t4. I don't know the ar's or trim.





I could find out monday.

That sounds disgusting.





Maybe you can save them and upload them to the forum?

Going to be a fast little yota



Neat little engine mount/brace you made. The plate from the front cover to the tube looks kinda thin though?

I didn't make that.





And yeah, it looks thin. I hope that it handles what this car should make.









Do you guys like the manifold?

Manifold looks good, I'm assuming he doen't have a divided turbine housing?

Some have said it's good to come out of the exhaust port with a section of straight for a couple inches but space normally becomes the limiting factor. I like how you used the pipe weld el's, they work awsome dont they?

Yeah, it's an open turbine housing.





If you apply thieory from all motor cars to turbo manifold design, then yes having some straight pipe (as much as you can) after the port would be ideal. But like you said, space is a limiting factor. I probably could have added 2-3" of straight.





Weldels are the ****.







I would have made my first manifolds like this but I couldn't figure out a good way to join the two pipes togather. I made a manifold for my friends str4 and figured out how to make a merge collector. So, I applied that to the rotary and now we are having this conversation.



I can post some pics of that if you want to see.
