Its a GT28E…so its basically a gt series turbo, with normal journal bearings. For 100$ :nana: .

20k or so later

hehe…what did you run?

It’s honda-tech material so a secret it stays, for now.
A hint is that on the first race of the day I took off a full 2 seconds after the other guy.

Went back to the track on the last day of the season here with freezing temperatures and a tad more boost and was hitting 85+mph in eigth, so if the car doesnt grenade over the winter, its 12’s next spring with bfg’s. :sleep:

hey im in the process of installing my turbo kit now… just how did u run the watercooled part? did u block it off or run it into the antifreeze lines…dumb question but i stuck on it

I ran the lines one from the throttlebody to the turbo then to the other side of the waterneck at the top of the block.

Got pics/details on the Saab FMIC? From which Saab model is it from?

All I know about the IC is that it comes on viggens and has one side backdoor style IC piping. fun shit unless you do it backwards like I did.
