More than welcome. Though I doubt an other will be built but you never know, their are plenty of bits you can take away and use separately to improve a 2F, 3F, 3FE or even a 2FE.

Well we rolled out of the mech's onto the tow truck and off to MPC.

Every thing just squeezes in nicely.

May have missed it - but are you planning to run a coil through the dissy, or are you going to use coilpacks?

Coil packs, Dizzy's just for timing now. May in time make a little Ali hat for it later.

Just the picture. If you look the 1st pic they are bolted with gaskets to the 3FE headers. Their is no exhaust as yet from the turbo. You can also see the outlet from the wastegate the will plumb into the exhaust once it's in place.

You plan on changing the oil someday don't you? Looks like the air duct may make that difficult over the top like that.

Looking great, can't wait to see it run and what kind of power you really get.

Interesting actually as the ones they have seen have only been on supercharged engines and with very good results. Nothing as large as mine though and never in conjunction with a Turbo. Laminova do tend to seem to push themselves towards the supercharged side of things rather than turbo though, no sure why that is as you a cooling hot compressed air however it is generated. Super charges I guess tend to be a more integrated unit which is what Laminova aim their cores at.

Ok here are a few better quality pictures;.

Coming along nicely too.

You can better see the Turbo manifold.
