New turbo setup! T3/T4, Pics added!

Great discussion... glad to see some different turbo options are working. Hope to get a proper turbo built for my TD at some point too. I like the idea of less exhaust restriction -- seems like these things really are restricted from the factory in terms of breathing. I can feel how mine wants to haul above 4000 rpm, but something is getting in the way, either in the intake or exhaust.

I'm looking at an FMIC too. Are you monitoring EGT or oil temps? Watch out as you pump the boost up... A good upgrade is going to a proper external oil cooler setup, you can use the thermostatic sandwich plate off a redblock turbo Volvo and use an RX7 or redblock heat exchanger. Way better than that junk VW setup that "cools" the oil via the coolant.

Jason, what are you going to do about the injector pump on yours? You are going to need more fuel at some point... Giles upgrade?
