Turbo work.

Gday.

I have been modifing my turbo while the motor is out. Started with the turbine housing. I removed alot of material and also opened the wastegate from 19mm to 26mm

Nah no more boost, 'ill just keep it where it is for now then change it after seeing what kind of drive pressures I'll see with these mods

How come one of the long sides is not square benny ? , is that port matched to the manifold and you will make your own gasket ,or did you just go a bit wide, only ask as from the first pic the gasket internal long edge looks parallel on both sides ?, tis a nice finish anyway bud.

I went wide on the exhaust manifold. I painted and took the pic before double checking. Its all matched now

I have seen people use old valves from a cylinder head for this.
