Got the ebay turbo kit on So far the headers line up perfectly! So far Ive just done the headers but I will let you know how the rest goes! |
hhahah wait till you have to deal with all the vbands lining up so far you put the headers on and thats it ? no cross over pipes nothing ? |
better make sure to leave everything loose before cranking down on the bolts, nothing will line up if you dont |
I put it all together off the car before, had no issues there. I have a plan for the v clamps already. |
This isn't the PTK replica kit is it? |
yea its the same thing |

yep, mine is directly from godspeed and i had to notch a v-band, weld another 02 bung since the passenger side didnt have enough room for the sensor, and since im running a t76, i had to make a custom downpipe. i just finished mine, it will be at the dyno this week. im writing the instruction manual for godspeed, so you will all get to see that soon! |

In that case, I didn't have a problem with my v band clamps |
any pics of how its mounting yet? im kind of curious about these kits. |
Got everything pretty much bolted up, havent had too many issues so far. Im a little confused on the belt routing though. I see everyone that has these PTK knockoffs are exactly the same, can someone show me pics of their belt routing or draw me a diagram? |
Starting from underneath the waterpump it goes over the powersteering, around the idler, around the crank, around the alternator, and back under the waterpump http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...0120/006-2.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...0120/008-2.jpg |
Fair warning go ahead and build a turbo brace! I hit a pot hole the othe day and cracked the turbo flange section of pipe at the v band flange. Got it all apart getting it ready to weld back up!!!! |
