Brmmmmm Tsssshhhhh - or err Turbo pic(s)
I made a slight mistake when I took these, I didnt put anything next to them to give an indication of size
 (and as we all know, size DOES matter!!)Anyway - its a Borg Warner Garrett hybrid (BW hot / Garrett cold sides) its a T6 and err 88mm  to give an indication the exhaust is a 5" outlet - luckily I just happen to have a 5" Borla that will sit nicely!All going behind (well in front) of a SBC 383, turbo is good to 1200 or 1400 at a push.....block is good to 800/850  but to be totally frank...I think thats enough to scare the pants off me for a good while, especially being road legal!!  And yes....its chuffing heavy! Going to run MS2 with 2 maps 1 for spooling hooked up to the brake and then switching to the normal map as soon as I mash the pedal....or thats the plan

'tsssssshhhhhhh' ?
I think a deafening roar akin to a tornado is more likely to be emerging from that monster

Well, I mean come on. With a 383CID Chevy small block V-8 with a 5" exhaust and pushing close on to 1000bhp, there is NOTHING about it that would sound "Brmmmmmm Tsssssshhh"!! Ok, maybe a vacuum leak. That thing is bloody well going to compete with the Concorde for sheer loudness!!

I have no idea what a turbocharger does, but I want one.
