Baby Holset Turbo Conversion build thread
Almost forgot about this thread...
Been waiting on parts, the most important ones have arrived
Barrote built me a one of a kind 7.5mm element M pump with a governor from a 60x series with fancy bits, factory ALDA and vacuum actuated fast idle etc. Fricken awesome!
Bought a couple of 044 pumps (one as a spare) to boost the stock lift pump when I hoof it. A Bosch electric water pump for the A/W intercooler. Also a T25 to T3 adaptor, cheapest one I could find on eBay, should've bought a cast one - this one is warped from the welding, need to get the mounting surfaces ground true
As for the car itself, I've taken the manifolds + turbo off the .952 so I can mock up where everything goes. Also started it up briefly (turbo oil supply blocked off!) and cylinders 2 & 4 blow copious smoke...just as well I'm swapping engines...
