turbo swap, MHI TD05H 16G small to Garrett GTX3071R

Gday.

As some would know I have swapped the turbo out on the the ute. Matt came up to lend a hand.
It hasnt been tuned yet. But it has competly changed the drivability. The power delivery is lineal, smooth and strong, and will only get better once it has been on the rollers and had the fat screwed into it .

I ported the exhaust manifold as well but the thing with the DTS manifold it dosnt quite sit evenly over the ports so each runner has meat taken out in different place and it looks a bit odd when its done, and
I dont know hoe that would affect it but all the square edges are gone so that has to be a good thing.

I had to modify the exhaust aswell for it to fit properly but no big deal. All I know I am glad I dont have to fork around with exhausts for a living, bugger that lol.

Here is a few pics of the difference between the 2 turbos, and a video of that awsome sound with a full exhaust.

It has a water to air with a 2 speed pump, and the manifold has had a lid lift
