The Turbo Glue Factory: Boosted Colt Build

[turbomonty]

The plan so far with the turbo
I am going to run a mid size bullet muffler vertical where the pipe is in the picture and then side pipe it under the fender

Air filter fits
Down pipe started

Ok so I got the exhaust done after the turbo

 

[turbomonty]

Fingers crossed I can manage the raw beast output of this single side pipe!

Ok so I made some top level choices!
2010 CR-V rotors are cheap and huge in 15" wheel

2005 4runner front caliper is also cheap and massive in 15" wheel
4 piston love and match the rotor thickness

The rotor and no other ones have a large enough "hat" height to work turn key so I got a 1.250 wheel spacers to make up for it

look at the factory wheel to hide that caliper

Suffered more harbor freight Tig action and got the radiator mounted. It is pretty dam solid already. Might add one more point of contact though

A mix of mad Max and hoonigan

From cardboard CAD to real life

It's getting pretty strong on the wife's radar I think. Lol

[turbomonty]
