I knew I had seen another impreza with a turbo right there.

^ wow, talk about intake. I would hate to suck bugs into my impeller! Or worse yet, a rock. That thing must be strictly for the track, wow... it blows my mind.

fobiawrx - What do you plan on doing with your intake setup? This is one hell of a project, keep up the good work.

on most of the angles are cut out a mandrel bent 90s that i bought. the only time i took straight tubing and cut wedges to make a bend was when i needed a tighter clr then what you can buy the bends in. like on the exhoust out of the turbo or on the waste gate sections. its what nicer to just cut mandrel bents the have to weld up five wedges to make a bend

yah that car is sick. runnes on straight meth. as far as the intake goes, its the main perpis of the bow the turbo sits in. when im at the track my car will look like that with no in take and only a mesh over the inlet. but for the driving around town it will have the mesh over the inlet and have a k&n filter in the front of the box. like this:

you will not even know the turbo is there when you see it done.

moe182 · 12-15-2006, 05:00 PM

Whoa, this is a pretty crazy setup.

flatthump · 12-15-2006, 05:12 PM

I cant believe Ive never seen this thread. Very nice work...Did I see a cutout on the backside of the turbo?..lol. That will be loud!!

So Im assuming you have to run a blow through Maf setup?

It was nice to meet all of you! Great show, too many cars and products, not enough time!

Oh and BTW- Great build on this relocated turbo! Lots of work but great job thinking outside the box!
