Nicole's turbo black ek9


Wow awesome work Nicole.

Id say your goin to have to have the car fairly high off the ground not to scrape that massive downpipe tho.

Whats the plans for lowering?
 
Wow! That engine is just a work of art! Instead of doing a bswap in my EJ, you're making me want to go turbo!
 
cheers fellas :D I love walking into my kitchen and just seeing it all there <3 haha!

Downpipe does hang fairly low, although theres no exhaust on the other end holding it up so it does have a bit of movement to be picked up a little - the sump and block is shorter than my old b16b ones too. I did use to scrape on some things with the 421, but I'll see how I go with this before raising the car up. It is on its arse a little for a track car but I love how it looks and my skinny wheels mean I never got scrubbing on track.

Shouldn't be a problem with the filter, its designed to fit on the end of the turbo in an EK bay. In the pic its not on all the way and theres no cambelt on making it look like it sticks out a lot further :)
 
Wow what a build! :shocked: super impressive, very nice :drool:
 
She's in! :D I've put the red cover back on for now to stop my other one getting damaged :)

Wasn't the easiest getting this out the house, but we managed it somehow!
