Does that turbo even fit between the engine and the radiator fan. I'm using a T3 super 60 and I have a little room left but your turbo would eat up a T3. Good luck with everything. Can you give us more details on the project.

hmmmm... there is such a thing as usable power....
unless you're goning for 1000 whp or something, that size that you have there would be way over the top of a normal street car.....

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...

I think you can power 2 d17 with this one single turbo. One in front and one in the trunk.
Looks like it little to much, but hey, you can try!

I support your turbo aspirations. If the turbo fits, then do it. If you need a slimline fan, I have a FAL dual electric slimline fan with red shroud. Brand New.
