Group A's group a rebuild

- Start date
I would not be ashamed to be a member of Devo. I've been looking for one of those hats for a very long time and I guess I can use an old air filter. :biglaugh:
Hmm...I guess it has to do with the structural differences between the mkiii and mkii then. You see my intercooler is in no way bigger than yours :aigo: but it's still quite big, here's a clue:group a supra said:yannis glad you like it
i will need to take some photos for you but to be fair they are the same as the top
so basically the top is level with the top of the bumber where I mounted two brackets but the rear is way off the lower frame support, plus I have the oil cooler hanging right behind the lower portion of the intercooler. So two straight brackets similar to the top ones are out of the question
P.S. Werd on the alt issue; I got a reconditioned Cressida unit (oem Denso) from the states, upgraded to 155Amps which is infact smaller in size than the mkiii unit (hint hint for relocating). I bench tested it when I received it about a month ago and it easily produced 125Amp numbers. The cost inc. shipping to greece was about $200 plus it's got 1 year warranty.

most diesels have a vac pump on the back of the alt' you maybe able to ditch the vac pump and mount a PS pump to the ass of it!

allan that is like real good to know so now all we need to find out is which manufacturer uses a denso alt the same size as the sup on a diesel with this system
answers on a postcard to -----------------
lmao
no seriously allan if the above is poss it would solve the whole problem
nothing done but research today have ordered another 2 4" alloy 90 degree bends to cope with alterations on the intercooler pipe work and have gone with a 48mm turbosmart pro gate wastegate which will be winging its way over from australia via turbo charged turtles i hope so i can get fabbing next week
Today
got home from work and look what i found
one rather large 48 mm progate from turbosmart and i have to say the quality is exceptional as i would expect from the homeland of ian and motec
need to go see my stainless supplier tommorrow for some 50mm 2.5mm wall stainless tube so i can rig her up
