Question WANTED: Styrene sizes for 1:25 Scratchbuild,

Hey everybody. Just wanted to give/get some information on the subject. I'm going to scratchbuild a turbo, and turbo manifold for a revell 1:25 ITR. I have currently .100 styrene rod that I'm planning to use for the turbine itself. Do I need something bigger/smaller for my compressor housing? Will the .100 be small enough for the turbo manifold? What size tubing/rod will I need to properly plum the turbo and the intercooler?

BTW, I searched google and got some damn good pics of B16 turbo vtec's. I'm stuck on something. if all the exhaust gets shot directly into the turbo, where does it exit and it's spun the turbo up? Meaning, where do I connect my exhaust piping to on the turbo?


Thanks.
