Driftmotion turbo kit

[arpus89]

I purchased a Driftmotion turbo kit a few months ago and finally got to putting it in. I'm up to the point of moching the turbo up to fit the intercooler piping.

My question is has anyone installed one of these turbo's and which way did you clock the compressor housing to get all the piping to fit nice?

You will have to clock the turbo away from the number one runner. If you can have someone modify it, it would help you clock the turbo downward and have a much neater intercooler piping setup.

What do you mean by modifying the turbo?? The turbo came premodified from Driftmotion with an elbow welded on.

If you modify the runner, you can avoid using a 90 elbow and make an aluminum pipe going downward. You don't want an elbow so close to the heat, it will eventually start to break down.
