radiator sprung a leak today not sure what im going to do about it just yet cause wastegate pipe

[mx-3_4evr]

So what's does the new turbo set up looks like?

[smoke187]

soon as i get the new manifold im going to start mock up of the new setup on the spare engine right now i only have the turbo t3to4 i think .60 .48 ar only markings on it

[mx-3_4evr]

Water/oil cooled, nice! Not a fan of internal waste gates though. Should go external!

[smoke187]

i am going to run it external thats why my wg is not up forsale

[Mazda_Powered]

wow, seems like a perfect size turbo...is that from an OEM application? or was it an aftermarket piece?

[smoke187]

im not sure what its from i have to rotate the center to get the part numbers off of it so i can look them up

[Mazda_Powered]

ok keep me posted please?

[smoke187]

installed gs bumper + lip will take some pics soon

[Chad]

ya happy with the lip and spoiler?

[carkrazed2005]

That is a hard hitting turbo smoke. Your gonna like it. It'll spool nicely with the .48 turbine housing and your new manifold

[smoke187]

yup cant wait to get it


chad the bumper is great worth the drive the lip was kinda cracked but i think you told me that i just used some 2 part epoxy to fix it if that cracks i will get the plastic welder from harbor freight

also installed something i had from the mx3 intake i got off ebay a few years back when i had my egt wish they still sold that intake cause i want another

[Mazda_Powered]

yea, i remember that intake, with the heat shields and everything!
