Garrett turbo, getting better...




While testing the leaking off the turboparts at autotune.fi, i saw that the turbochargers cold side was leaking, so i thought that theres a broken o-ring inside, but when dismantling that turbo, i found out that theres no gasket at all, and looks like there should be some glue on the threads too... but after these tricks, its interesting to see where it still leaks, that should make some difference. The turbo repair shop guy told me that there could be a too small turbine side, restrictive at least, so im thinking to take my 2 garretts to the shop, if he sees any problems with my parts. And one thing... kotten tallgren fixed my ghias blinker base.. wow, looks so much better... To be continued.

Ghia repair, the black one

Sunshine, snow, old ghias & warm weather is a beautifull combination...I started the black ghia just to get some kicks, and it worked fine. I ran it 5-10 minutes and after that, i decided to take the garretts compressor side apart, because theres some leak of it. I heard that theres a turbocharger repair shop near by... 

Small happenings & things

No big things, just some studless winter tyres on the fuchs wannabe-wheels, for some snow action, hopefully with a video too... maybe they will fit the blue ghia? Got to paint them a bit...
