  1. It’s funny how we have different ideas of what’s big depending on our experiences. To me that’s a small turbo, compared to the ones I am used to on the 16-645 EMDs on my boat. To an engineer on a container ship the EMD turbos I think are big are probably small!

  2. Use that turbo for the 10L engine camaro. Reverse the head flow so that it's a hot V and run some sort of bundle of snakes manifold to keep that big bih close to the block. Be sure to ceramic coat the exhaust manifold AND heat wrap it, and don't forget a turbo blanket.

    Call it the CYCLOPS!

  3. You want to put that 143mm turbo on something? Keep the stretched wheelbase on Mullet, and find a Merlin V12. You'll probably need 2 of the 143mm turbos, as the Merlin is 27 liters big.
