Something i should have done long ago is pull the exhaust elbow and see where the WG puck was leaving its footprint.... had 30 minutes so i took it all off... no rest for the weary.. but everything looks good. The last two pics are the before and after of studs on the oil drain, the Fac. way will make you say words you never heard yourself say..
 
No joke I remember when I installed a TE-44 on my grand national and trying to put back the bolts on the oil return pipe was a bastard could barely put your fingers in there.They should of had studs from the factory would make it a lot ease .
 
Hey Robert! I didn't ask for a spec'ed turbo from Bison. Def should have...I like the match of wheels though. Flow rate #/min is very close between the compressor and the turbine. Staying within 2mm of the comp and turbine wheel is ideal. 6162, 6466, 6766, 6968...

I asked Bison a few weeks ago if he could make me a custom MFS 6466 journal bearing turbo. Here it is. 62-64mm is the perfect size for a TTA imo.

That's was the point holding me back as it was only offered in BB, don't need more tire spin.. keep us up to date on it.
 
Looking good Robert! Just put my on. Didn't finish the DP or oil drain tube. Wore my new Dewalt battery powered "heated" jacket...worked like a champ.lol

Robert a 6768 bb works pretty damn good

Before i decided to sell the car the plan was to max out the te62 ( mid to hi 10sec turbo) before going bigger, didn't want to be one of the guys that have way more turbo than needed, i do know that a BB with 373 gears and 3200 stall equals zero traction.
