I looked really big when I got it, looks more decent sized once mounted.

I grabbed it from AGP turbo, they have the weld on elbow option for like $40

Well, as usual I am blessed by the fortunes of bad luck. After getting it all together i drove it to work. Everything was great and was a blast to drive. On the way home, i lost all oil pressure.

Seems the oil pump or a seal failed. Out came the engine. Inspected everything and it all looked fine. I replaced the oil pump, all the seals and gaskets on my way out.

Seems I got lucky and the drop in oil pressure didn't trash the engine.

Full boost(8psi atm) seems to be 3700rpm, this turbo is awesome

Been driving around breaking stuff in. Boost is about 10 psi currently, afr's still in the 10's. Gonna take a few to get used to this trans, gears are super close together. Needs an alignment bad.

Went and got an alignment, turns out the drivers side strut tower was pushed in. This made the alignment wonky. Had a odd knocking in the rear, i ripped a subframe stud from the body.

Parted out.

Fuck all that shit. I'm so done with that.

So after a quick 5 day part out. I was able to get a new chassis to play with.

Picked up a 1993 jzx90 Chaser Avante. It's all original, never modified, has 16k miles on it(after converting from km). It's a stock na 1jz, with auto. I'm so stoked to to get it.
