  • I think the 83-75 is a solid turbo and I bought it last year when Geoff didnt know about the efr series comming out,I believe it will be able to reach my goal for 500whp and decently responsive.

      i wonder how they weld the divider of the wastegate pipe with the divider of the manifold? i mean, it must be tricky getting at each of the weld joints. there must be a specific sequence of events that i can't quite visualize.

      anyways, i like it!

      cam specs?
      oh hai!

      • Yes it does look very tricky I was wondering myself how he did it.

        The cams are nothing crazy tomei 260 in/ex 9.15mm I didnt want to go with to big of a cam sacrificing the bottom-mid range.I'm not looking for anything over 500-530whp,I just want it to be somewhat responsive .

        • Here are some of the goodies that i've received, i'm sort of having a hard time with the tomei baffle...


          Worked on the subframe today, I picked it up from the body shop that sanblasted it yesterday.

          Cleaned the bushing mounts

          After some pounding , all bushings are in except for the front diff bushings.


          Next step is to fix the one damaged hicas mount thread,weld the braces and get it coated.
