Griffin Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Just finished swapping an 83/74 with a bigger caterpillar turbo, it was a bit of work considering the physical size of it. I put up a pic of it next to an rb25 stock turbo for an idea. It makes 8psi at 3500, how does that seem? Still need to finish it off and sort a few things out but so far so good. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/460360-worlds-biggest-low-mount-with-pics/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dose Pipe Sutututu Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I'm always interested on why you use those turbos and a stock RB25DET manifold on a RB26 lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/460360-worlds-biggest-low-mount-with-pics/#findComment-7619648 Share on other sites More sharing options...

XKLABA Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Any idea what the turbo actually is ? To the best of my knowledge which isn't much Cat don't make turbos so it is a branded buy in, but from who and what spec It is a neat looking setup ?

Griffin Posted October 14, 2015 Author Share Posted October 14, 2015 They are Borg Warner turbos with cat housings, this one is internal wastegate which is another reason I put it on .

Count Grantleyish Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 It is a neat looking setup Yeah, it is. Wonder what is needed to chuck that manifold in a 26, drill the head to suit said manifold?

Griffin Posted October 18, 2015 Author Share Posted October 18, 2015 Can someone add up the cost of the normal 6 boost manifold, external gate, precision / garrett etc path for comparison sake $$$ wise? Just curious to see what people spend. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/460360-worlds-biggest-low-mount-with-pics/#findComment-7621777 Share on other sites More sharing options...
