whats so special about your car for it to be worth 4500 grand? im not saying it isnt or lookin for an argument im just wondering.

its on throttle bodies n its turbo'd

HHHmmmm sorry for the thread hi-jack,


Lets see some pics of your TB'd turbo//// That's gotta be something speciallllll

[Ricky G]

i am certainly no mechanic but i thought throttle bodies wer trumpets that suck in alot of air basicly! and a turbo works on airflow forcing in and out! please correct me if im wrong! and i didnt think the 2 could go together! as stated before im not after an argument im just genuinly interested!!

sorry to get involved here but im just curious as to how it works too and some pictures would be cool, what have you done to your engine as in piston size, clearances etc...tb's and a turbo = a huge amount of stress!!!

made sealed airbox (plenum chamber) bolted to throttle bodies with single hose take off on one side (ns) runs down to intercooler then to turbo air sucked into turbo through intercooler upto plenum then through throttle bodies EASY!

my engines got standard sized forged pistons arp rod bolts full bottom end balance ported and polished head standard corsa gsi cams standard tappets at the moment omex 710 ecu home made exhaust manifold for metro t3 turbo (sounds like its a **** turbo but i assure you its not) sbd inlet manifold jenvey 45mm throttle bodies home made plenum chamber this is only running 9psi at the minute because the engine is coming back out soon for a rebuild

sounds good! any chance of some pic's??
