I was going through my photobucket pictures from years back and came across this gem. All the good old days of BP meeps and the shit that used to managed to crawl up there.


Spot the epicness. Yes, this car actually drove up there....

lol. That's what it looks like. Exhaust into the outlet, through the turbo, and out of the hot side inlet.

WOW! I didn't know you can run them like that. Wouldn't the turbo spin backwards? Or did he change the direction of the turbine wheel

Is it just me or is it also missimg a vacuum line on the wastegate?

haha i over analyzed and thought that the exhaust runners went into the downpipe part of the turbine. Completely overlooked that the cold side is backwards.

This picture is all sorts of mind fuck.

The FPR looks legit, it's got a bracket above the intake, but the waste gate is def missing a vacuum hose or cap. Lol
