| Post subject: | How many turbo /6's are there? |
Just wondering. I've been trying to put the setup Wayne used to use (shown elsewhere on this site) on my Dart, and it's been slow going, mostly because I haven't had that much time when I can work on it. Anyway, I'm just curious as to how many people have built engines like that. Does anyone have a ballpark figure for how often this has been done? |

I run a turbo on my slant six. You can go to <A HREF="http://home.earthlink.net/~mrdartgt/">http://home.earthlink.net/~mrdartgt/</A> or wangermotorsports.net I do not have pic of the new setup on there but some of the other thing that I did are on there. I make costom turbo kits for alot of other types of cars to. I got a stock engine to go 14.50 @ 95 mph, that was intercooled and at 10 lbs of boost. I have got a new engine built up with turbo cam ,head work, But I needed to get a bigger radiator so I am running 4 lbs until I get a new intercooler. The new engine ran 15.06 @ 90 at 4lbs. The tranny was sliping pretty bad. If you need any help let me know! andrew wagner Quote:

I am going to attempt to use two of the .48 housing turbos on my /6. I am also in the process of building a fairly large intercooler for it. I pondered using the buick gn turbo, but it seems to really work better with an aftermarket downpipe. What type of custom work are you doing? Header, manifold etc? ![]() sschultz@telusplanet.net |

Wagnermotorsports.net I spelled it wrong!!! Here is a pic of the header. My turbo has the .48 exhaust, and .63 compessor side. The gn turbo is a good turbo! looks like your intercooler will be nice. andrew wagner Quote:

Nice looking header Andrew. Do you build and sell these? And if so, how much? Tom sschultz@telusplanet.net |

yes I do! I can make any type of header you want. Its about 350 for a steel header and 450 for a stainless header. I am slowly getting things on the web site together. andrew wagner Quote:
