iX Turbo rally car is in the making

[Massive Lee]

A very good friend of mine who is using his iX for rallies will spend the winter adding a turbo. Don't worry, it's not his first one.

You could do alot worst, at least its using split pulse and its not a log..

you won't have to worry about the manifold cracking. I wonder how a k03 turbo would do on an m20. Very small, spools quickly, good for 10lbs of boost all day long, readily available for next to nothing with low miles. I'll want to make a KO turbo setup once I get access to the schools machine shop.

K03 would be an incredibly tiny/stupid turbo to put on an M20. The K03 is choked as it comes on the 1.8T. It would fall on its face and exhaust manifold pressure would skyrocket in higher rpm's.

poop welds

lol, true..

The flange that the turbo set on looks like a first grader cut it. Maybe its just an illusion...
