Man that runs smooth..........................no video's on a run?
You look at that motor from the back, it looks like a normal aircooled unit.
Nice work.

Re: My type 1 turbo project
I finally go my boost pipe back! It took almost two months!
But here she is I took out the T section and installed this more free flowing Y pipe. Friday she will go onto the dyno again for some final tuning.
Can't wait.

Re: My type 1 turbo project
Thank you. The Y pipe I did not build myself. Some one else built it for me.
