Summer project... cool pics inside....
Summer project... cool pics inside....
I decided to become a mechanic LOL and it turned out that I really learned a lot over the summer. I had some premature turbo failure, upgraded the oil feed lines, injector O ring leaks,changed the main belt, changed the hydraulic clutch line, the lower plenum cracked.... the part that the injectors go into.... etc...
All this in the name of drag racing LOL.... and the list is not complete.... But I have a boost free car with fresh turbos
enjoy

Marek - might I suggest some mechanic's gloves to save your knuckles 
Those turbo's look soooooo big I could only imagine what that feels like under full boost - it's got to kick you in the a$$

Yes but unfortunately some of the work required fingertip feel.. like taking off the O rings on the injectors and doing it blindly... it was tuff but I go thru it...

Nice work! I'm sure you learned a lot in the process that made doing the work more rewarding. Good luck with the rebuild. I'm sure it will rrrrrrriiiiiiiiipppppp when your done!
Also thanks for the advice. I'll let you know how it goes. I can't imagine what your car must be like.

You FREAking crazy Canadian.... haha I been doing this for some time... just this one was a little more challenging... lol turns out that a .02 cent washer fixed the O ring leak and a $2.08 gasket that I installed was the wrong GT3 part number... LOL
