Turbo's on the bench

Hi guys,

Just finished these up for some friends. Each pair of turbo's is designed for a V6 or V8 configuration. They are totally scratchbuilt and feature real brass oil/machined fittings, PE downpipe flanges, etc. Now that these long overdue projects are complete I can concentrate on some of my personal projects. I normally post on scaleauto, but recently been blown away at the quality builds on this forum. I'll be posting up some of my WIPS soon. Take care mates ~ Mike

Re: Turbo's on the bench

Thanks guys for the kind words! I'll post up my RX7 thread soon since I'll be starting work on that again this week. Also have a rod/drag K.Ghia in the works for a vwvortex aircooled build that I will post up.

I was thinking they'd make awesome earrings.

Very nicely done. Next time you make a set, care to demonstrate your techniques?
