Thanks for taking the effort to post that list. It'd be nice to have that permanently linked... Any idea how?

A.

A sticky would be perfect!

I have no idea how to make more permanent links. About the only thing I can think to do is try and archive the information and put it on my website sometime. If I can come up with a little bit of time I'll look into it.

I'll sticky this one and leave it open in the case that we get some more usefull threads.

I think that this web site is a great resource for the novice and experienced tubo engine builder

:hail: "Turbochargers" by Hugh McInnes (Huge McAnus!)

I know professional turbo experts that STILL use this book for reference on a daily basis. Get it!

I've met Turbo Jim hes a really nice guy.

I agree, that's one of the best books out there.

Grease, do you know the guys that own the page toohighpsi? Caught me off guard seeing you post that, I'm friends with one of them. small world..

Are you kidding? LOL Mike's page is probably one of the best known DIY turbo pages to use for reference. If his site went offline tomorrow, I would contact him to host it just because it is a super resource for DIY type of stuff on the web! LOL

ah

Guido's right. His page is probably the best known DIY turbo page around, and one of the best IMO. Wouldn't mind meeting him though. Hey, maybe we should have a meet for all of the Power adder guys to come together and shoot the ****. That would be pretty fun. Anyway, back to my hole.

You know, timing/chance is funny, I've been going back and forth with Mike online forever, talked to him on the phone, bought and traided parts... but never met him in person (actually missed him by 15 minutes once because he had to go get his wife in a snow storm and couldn't make it out the next time becuase I was sick as a dog, and well, snow messed up the next one...). OTOH, I've met his dad (crazy Joe, spent a night shooting the **** with him and messing around with his car...) and most of his family.

We were planning on getting together some time this spring but it looks like he's moving back to michigan so that probably won't happen...

yea.. i think they should all go by the name crazy.. apparently, mike has gotten much larger turbo for his 351(which already ran 9 something at around 140), and has plans in the making that just make the current setup look like kids play.. I haven't met them either, but went to school with a friend of theirs, trever(has the tt 460 fairmont on that site).

Mike just upgraded from a the original 72mm garret to a 76mm garret (until about a month ago he worked at Lycoming, they're large frame aircraft turbos). He just dynoed that combination at 602hp at the wheels a couple of days ago and is now going to pull the TECII for an AEM, and I belive that he's looking to go with more boost from there.

i found a turbo kit designed for third gens

http://www.twistdisc.com/id14.html

Single and Twin Turbo kits for 305 and 350 TPI motors and for the third gen 2.8, 3.1, and 3.4 liter engine

www.bbsdesigns.net

I'm probably gunna be ordering a single turbo kit from there, and for the price you can't go wrong

prices? none on the site

They arent selling em anymore as far as i know because they got ripped a new one by hacks stealing they ideas

does any one sell them not to promote "copies" but i just wanna put a t76 on my car the easy way not 2 weeks of fab

yea theres a couple ive seen but 1 i support BSB only and 2... i wont lead you in the direction of crap... if you find one of the rip offs dont buy it because they are cheaply made and crack easily
