new "lay-out" for the turbo-ghia

i drove to 506 kilometres today to see my black ghia & bring some parts for a mock-up.
i had an idea how to put all the stuff in the engine bay, but when i was trying to make ém there as i wanted, i had to change the plans, for a more easier lay-out, but the best part, is that we can proceed with this new plan. the water/air cooler will be behind the right tail light area, the t04 60-1 turbo will get a longer 90 bend to fit with CB hideaway header, the intake manifold will get a 90 bend over the alternator, after that it will get the butterfly valve and after that comes the cooler, from the cooler to the turbo we will put the dump valve... we will have to get a tank for the cold water, and the radiator also... but in a week the car goes to a welder that will make all the mods, to the brackets, header, injectors, etc...so that the parts can be bolted to the car ...for good. one part that we managed to put in its place, was the wastegate, this is the number four.... huh. check out the pictures... you will get the idea anyway.

Heading for a better turbo-system....

Thanks to some swapping of things, i got a new hideaway turbo kit for the ghia, and it looks promising, not 100% ready, but close enough, the turbo got green light from the turbo-repair shop, they thought that " its a big one, ..this is for a vw engine?? " are u serious???? YES i am, i will only clean it up...
I had to test it for the new turbo header, and it looks greeeeat! It needs a a 30-40 degree elbow-adapter, but anyways, this setup can use a cooler also, ;-) oh yeah! ...To be contiuned...
