Done done done. Took much longer than I had hoped, but the exhaust ended up not lining up how I wanted it, etc.
S200 was smoking pretty heavily and it turned out it needed to be rebuilt. I bought it used, so, chance taken. Here we are all taken apart
I threw the TD05 on for fun even though I did not want to use it at all. Took it around the block a few times, seemed ok.
Here are some turbine profiles. The HX30 is higher up so it looks bigger. TD05 9 blade (not installed) , s200, HX30
Another profile. Man, that HX30 shaft nut is friggin huge. The exducer is 52mm but the nut take up 25mm of that. The 9 blade TD05 is 49mm but only 12mm are lost to the nut.
And, here is the finished product
There was still some oil smoke on startup but it went away after I drove it. I'll have to keep an eye on that. The oil feed has no restrictor which should be correct, but I may look into a smaller orifice if the smoke persists.
I need more fuel....
Exhaust is 3" turbo back with a Thrush Hush muffler. Sounds pretty nice, not much louder than stock. My downpipe is touching the body so there is some more noise than there should be, I'll be fixing that soon.
