So if it's not going into a D17 what engine are you going to put the turbo on.

Well, Im sorry to let you guys down, but no this won't be going on a D17 or in a civic for that matter. This thing probably as more displacement then our motor haha. It will be one of the two turbo's we'll be using for a bi-turbo setup for our F-350 diesel. I thought I would post it though just because of the sheer size of this thing. i'll post more pics as the project progresses this spring though for those who care.

Seriously whats cooler than a 7000 pound truck beating up on WRX's and S2000's hahaha.

Ahh, I was going to say you must have a large truck, boat or single-turbo Supra you haven't told us about

You'll have to post up some specs when you toss that thing on your truck, looks monstrous

a decent t3 will get you up to 500 whp with the proper precautions... i'm pretty sure you know this...

i'm guessing that it's not going in your civic huh? that's just my guess...

if it is... well... good luck...

nah everybody i'm only kidding my dad works with industrial heavy duty equipment, i went up to his work on day and i saw this huge turbo in the corner and i had some smaller turbo's in my trunk i just bought from somebody so i put them next to it and damn what a huge difference. im not sure what its used on but it was just enormous you'd need like a 15in downpipe or somethin haha

here's another pic of what i'm talkin about, i didn't take it but its a good example
