Finally got the turbo finished.
Couple of people to thank before the ride report.

All the guys on the board that have chipped in with answers to my posts thanks guys

Pete (Pete's Pitstop) for the final fine tuning, it was a bit of mucking around to get it done with a few headaches along the way.
Thanks for the extra time and effort

Last but not least Greg without his input and advice and answers to my never ending questions this build wouldn't have happened.
Thanks heaps

Had the first ride today.
Below 5500rpm just like a standard Busa.
Above 5500rpm boost comes in and
FAAAAAAAAAAAAARK it was worth the hassle.

well done,looks great, did it work out much more cost effective than just buying a kit?

[horndog]

Awesome work I am seriously thinking I might like to go the home build myself. How did the final costs wash up to a kit?
Did you weld the plennum and plumbing with Tig?

[AntsBuza]

The cost was cheaper than buying a kit.
as long as you don't count your own hours.
It just takes time and patience
It took me 3 goes to get the plenum the correct size.


If you have the skills and tools you can do it yourself.
Along with help from guys here.
All the welding was done with a tig.
