That 90 degree bend coming off the turbo looks a little extreme.  I like the log manifold though.  It sure is a pretty motor.

Justin... Mr. "nothing is ever good enough" can you ever just say it loos nice and move on?

good lord dude, the shit looks damn good and I doubt that bend is doing a whole lot to diminish performance... let me guess here comes another snappy comment about me being stupid...  :roll:

Very few turbo setups including factory turbo cars don't have a 90 degree bend in the system somewhere.

90 degree bends arent bad when there piping or cast alluminum, hose bends are kinda lame and low flow

but that car is sick, its in the new eurotuner

Re-read my post dipshit.  I did say it looked pretty.  And it does.  I sure have never had anything nearly as nice as that.  That one part is the only thing that detracts from the engine for me.  It is not just that it is 90 degrees but it looks constricted compared to the rest of the tubing used.  It is much smaller in diameter as well as being a fairly drastic turn.  It probably won't hurt ther motor but with all of that fabrication they could have done better.  Remember nothing is perfect.

A small to large transition that follows the flow direction is not a bad thing.

allright well if your going to be an ass about it, that 90 degree bend is a 2", its small because thats what size of all turbos outlets, unless you step into t-60 or bigger, so he has the 90 degree 2" bend since he cant make a new compresser housing with a 2 1/2" outlet to match the inlet of his intercooler and pipping


but you knew that obviously

Well, ok whatever it is just a personal observation anyway.  And I am an ass.  I accept that and don't care.  It doesn't look right to me and I am sure these guys have the fab skills to do better but whatever who cares.  I am sure it works fine but that car is all about aesthetics as well as speed.

Hey Troy..Mr. VW Mechanic  :wink:   Outside of the obvious turbo on that R32 do you notice anything else out of the ordinary on the engine?

Funny Troy mentioned the plug wires. The throttle-by-cable was the give away for me. Hot setup though. I'm hoping to see that car in person in a few weeks at Dubs Along the Lake.

BTW Pat, I met one of the owers of Electromotive's son. DOOFUS.

I'm well aware of their "past" practices..but in Rich's defense he has really turned things around in a positive way.  Unless of course you had some recent bad dealings with them.  Anything's possible I suppose

I've purchased a few thousand bux worth of stuff from them over the past six months and so far everything has been good to go.  In fact his reputation in the online community has nearly done a 180 degree turn around over the last year or so.

Sorry to hear about that... so did you just lose out on your money/parts?

I talk to Rich two or three times a week via IM...should I tell him that he fucked over a buddy?

I enjoy working with EIP.  I have bought a lot of electromotive stuff from them for the formula car, as well as my pistons and clutch.  

10% vortex discount too.
