Cheers Simon :grin:

Managed to get the turbo mounted over the holiday, have sent off the design for the intacooler to a fue companys to get prices now, dry sump is on order so as soon as i get it i will be getting on with the exhaust manifold.

Can't enlarge the thumbnails Brent!

works for me :)

interesting turbo setup!

works now for me as well:ok:

looking good.. however to go to the trouble of making a custom manifold and up and downpipe I would have put the turbo at the front as you have made the uppipe length longer which will make it more laggy. Not being negative just my opinion btw.

Simon

This is really taking shape, saw the turbo on the other days and it maahhooosive!.

That is a hooooge turbo

I have mounted the turbo at the top for a few reasons, so that it gets constant cool air through the bonnet scoop, also so that I can make the inlet pipework as short as possible with the least amount of bends and so that I have plenty of room in the front inner arches to fit my oil cooler in one side and have the dry sump tank in the other...and finally so I can get a MAHOOSIVE front mount intercooler in there! With this set up I can get an intercooler with a bigger frontage and bigger cooling capacity than the biggest APS intercooler for the impreza. :wink:

Seen it there on a few American cars but not over here, nice to see something different :)

Looking very nice :)

Where did you get the 22b kit from?

Will be very intresting to see how the BW turbo get on.

Cheers guys :ok:
22b kit came from HT autos, the fit is pritty good apart from the fuel flap and its a bit wavy in places. Nothing a good body shop cant sort out.

very nice,that will be one for next years ses calendar :10:

about time you updated Brent :wink:

he's too busy fixing everyone else's scoobs rather than his own :lol:

your not wrong. was up at his place yesterday picking up my car. he said hes been flat out for quite a while now.

Not seen this thread before, looks like a very interesting project: I look forward to seeing how it turns out! :doubleup:

Loving this thread... Keep the posts coming mate....

Custom intercooler made now, and its pretty dam big (120mm core). I've made up the subframe to take the intercooler and radiator, whilst trying to keep the weight as far back as possible. Not very impressed with the front bumper as it is totally the wrong shape and fits really badly, so that will be going in the bin and will be ordering a different one soon. Bonnet pins have been fitted and have just made a start on de-weighting the doors.

sure its big enough mate!?

trying to compensate for something? :whistle: :D

Intercooler is a work of art. :drive:

Is that an alisports intercooler Brent?

Impressive kit matey :doubleup:

That looks like a intercooler of a truck..... :lol: Love it mate....:nod:

I designed the intercooler and had it made by AH fabrications £££££££:angst:.

Worth it though AH are the dogs

Like they say you get what you pay for, there quality of work is superb.

saw it yesterday and it was bloody huge!!!!!!

Hi everyone

I never really get around to up dating this thread so if you would like to check out my progress on the car please have a look at my facebook page.
You will find it under Subaru Project in my albums.

Is it finished yet? :D

:lol:

Agreed apart from the bit about throwing it in the bin. A good bodyshop can sort it.

I've since smashed mine in an accident however, and will be buying one from ABW

It will never be finished.....probably :lol:

:) He saw mine with his old alloys and I think that lit some fire the other week ;)

Good stuff, progress is progress mate! You'll have made more significant changes to your car this year than I will have to mine! ;-)

Finally had some decent progress on the car over the Christmas period, should be looking pretty good in the next couple of months.

Very nice mate....look forward to seeing it close up.

Looking very good Brent! :)

SAME!

It's good to see you getting on with this project :) I can remember visiting you ages ago for an MOT on the old wagon and this being sat in the corner, with the Turbo placed in there, looked quite.... scary :)

good stuff! :)
