Turbocharged K11's with air con

Tue 04 Mar 2008 08:25:53 PM
Hi everyone,
I'm looking for some pics of K11 turbo setups that retain the air condition.
There's a couple floating around on here such as Family Hack but I've searched the forums and none of the pics work .. I am keen to turbocharge my K11 and seeing an existing example would greatly cut down development time!
Cheers,
Ben

yeh. can be done. pretty easily.. only way you'll do it is to high mount the turbo, i've managed to fit a 3" dump pipe straight of the back of the turbo.. there some pics here, i think some don't have the alternator bolted back on.. but it does fit, quite easily.. i've done it all without ever disconnecting the a/c aswell.

can be done lowmount too, i've done it with a equal length stainless steam pipe manifold with runners about 30cm long, using 1 turbo of a rb26 and running a split dump pipe. very tight, ceramic coating highly recommended, but it is achievable.
