Single Turbo: How are you guys supporting it?
Single Turbo: How are you guys supporting it? Are you making custom brackets to support the turbo or are you letting it rest on the plumbing? anyone have any pics of brackets that are being used to hold em up?
thanks!
thanks!
was going to use brackets but i think cast manafolds are strong enough to hold it. If not i have one made out of an exhaust hanger that attaches to the frame and allows flex
ah, i like that ****** idea, youre the man. infact, the metal man. kick ***. i will do something like that, thanks for the pic too!
is that just where the t04 flange is? i assume you just traced it onto that metal and cut it out so to speak? thats bad *** buddy. thanks!

im going to assume its far enough away. headers glow and they are RIGHT next to plug wires and some right next to the plastic intake (like harlans that went up then forward). so im going to assume his fender would be more than fine.
