Turbo Tuck

[eurotiva]

After dragging my turbo for a while after lowering my car. I have moved it up. Almost 7 inches. It took some cutting and rewelding but now even with 500 pounds in the back it doesn't scrap/drag. Here is before and after and you have to compare it to the tow hook in relation to see the difference. I also painted it black. Opinions??

You're using the Holley fuel pump to scavenge oil from the turbo?

[eurotiva]

^^ yup. Cheap and does the job, people still ask what my air filter is doing back there. I tell them I'm being "green" and filtering my exhaust. It is hard keeping a straight face tho.

Definitely an nice improvement. Can you hide the air filter under the bodywork too, maybe route it under there with a pipe?

[eurotiva]

I thought about it just haven't found the perfect spot yet. I was thinking inside the spare tire well.

whats the clearance on the cone filter - I would hate you to tear it off on a speed control hump
