Re: The "4.9 liter turbocharger, stage 1" thread.

Well I finally got the turbocharger today. Here are some pictures of the hardware that is in my house as of this moment. I will get more pictures up when I get a chance to go to my garage and collect all of the exhaust pieces that I'll be using...

The turbo may need new bearings and a wastegate. There is some side-play but no end play, which between the two the side-play is better to have.

The wastegate could be changed too. Not only for the poor condition but I would also like to use an adjustable one to controll boost (6 psi max for now).

Before I install the turbo, I will polish it up and make it look good...Sorry, I'm a stickler for neatness...

Anyways, here is the first picture of "4.9 liter turbocharger, stage 1."
