tried to convince lokiel to not buy my manifolds !!!

Thems fightin' werdz :lol:

Here is some bits, the Forge actuator getting turned down in the lathe so it can be threaded further up the shaft to fit properly, I assume this actuator is designed for a slightly longer EFR turbo.. otherwise it would have been threaded further or had a shorter shaft.

And then a reroute pipe to go with the Begi spacer and modified front housing and a welsh plug to replace the front thermostat housing (pipe only pictured)

Upside down sorry

If I bought an off-the-shelf GT2650 kit, I knew that I'd always regret not getting the EFR6258 instead, it spools much faster and generates more power than the GT2560.

Now that it's almost complete, I'm glad I did, it's friggin' awesome!

Having spoken to you in person I can honestly say I think you will be disappointed about 2 months after you've got this back......

Because it still has stock bottom end and knowing you, you will want more! Haha :grin:

Not for long

Unfortunately until then, it will be like sleeping in the same bed as Salma Hayek but not being able to touch her until the engine is built.

Manifold is currently at the ceramic shop getting a couple of coats of Turbo X ceramic coat. Build to handle 2000c and keep the heat and therefore turbo spooling energy IN.
