Rear Mount Turbo Build - Page 3

Fenriel · 07-09-2016, 02:23 PM

Just out of curiosity, and since you've built plenty of systems, ever considered using a comp oil less turbo instead of having to deal with extra complications? I wasn't sure how reliable they were, but I always found the concept attractive, considering all the issues turbo's can have with oil.

I was very intriqued by the oil less turbos at first but personally have never touched one.

I talked to a few of my friends who also own shops,
Jason St00pid, Huy Tran Inline Racing, and Cortney Green and theyand all of them had bad things to say. Supposedly they had all worked great for up to the first oil change and then they were having excess shaft play and wheels rubbing the housings. One even froze up

Can you explain the difference?

Turbo mounted up and exhaust being finished.

Had a booboo on fitment near the driveshaft but we got it fixed now. About to bend out the Intercooler end tanks.

lol how much of the turbo is covered by the rear bumper when looking at it from eye-level?

Goertz · 07-09-2016, 03:54 PM

Its pretty big huh lol

I'll get pic of that tomorrow

Goertz · 07-09-2016, 05:07 PM

Intercooler bent out of 3/16

Cool, thanks for the progress pictures. This will be a fun build to watch. I hope you get the numbers you're looking for.

Never seen someone make their own intercooler.
If it works I will be extremely impressed

Just a couple of intercoolers I've built.

The twins were side mounts for a 1200who viper

Atomic Ed · 07-09-2016, 07:29 PM

What size of turbo is that? Garrett 45 series?

Goertz · 07-09-2016, 07:32 PM

Borg Warner S475 standard cast compressor wheel 75mm
1.32 ar turbine housing 96mm turbine wheel

That's a big MOFO, is It a built engine?

How much boost and/or HP are you aiming for?

Goertz · 07-10-2016, 09:38 AM

Stock engine atm.

Aiming to max out fuel system first then in a few months put together a short block and go for 1000
