Yeah I knew that by looking at the turbine inlet. Any details on the actual wheels? Trim? A/R?
Not sure I beilive it is a 60 trim
turbine wheel? So T04E 60 trim compressor, curious what turbine trim. T4 is kind of large for this motor on the turbine side.

Well it is a Ball Bearing turbo it boosts real fast the car has high compression pistons. You really feel it kick hard around 5200rpm but by then you have to shift. Remember I built this car with the thought in mind that I am going to put a stand alone like an AEM etc. This way I can get more rpms from the motor and thus some more power band. I have seen them rev 7000rpm all day which is perfect for this turbo. So answer is yes the turbo is a little large if you are not going to do anything with the computer. With that back housing setup and exhaust I should be able to put up some good dyno numbers with the engine also being reliable.

So let it be known form now on as being a "Zach" and not a "Sleeper".

Thats part of the reason why my intercooler is displayed... ive had at least 3 incidents where people come up behind me V-TACing hardcore and pass me and look in their side view mirror and slow down. I win lol.

That intercooler I bought off some guy in the shop he had a 280z that he was turbo charging. It was too big for his car it couldn’t fit. I checked out the cores and they were real nice looks like one of those Chinese intercoolers it is 3" thick sweet, it was polished and everything so I took it off his hands. It is mounted upside down because it is easier to run the plumbing that way.
