I was looking at purchasin a garret t3 .42 .48turbo and its compressor side is painted red I was wondering if anyone new if they originaly came like that or was it something someone else had done

 

yes it was probably done by someone else..... I have never heard of Garrett doing that to any of their turbos

 

And no. It wasn't me.

 

lmao...i was just going to say it was probably Mac

 

It was done by a person. I just powder coated the compressor on one for the motor I am building for my neice. I normally don't care about how a motor looks, but since its for a 16 year old girl, I stopped at every step and asked myself "what would Hello Kitty do?"

 

lucky neice!
yeah it was painted.

Still waiting on that part and a couple of misc. others. Hope to be stuffing it into an EG hatch in a week or so.

 

Here is mine....




And yes.... Mac did this one.

STC for all your turbo needs.
Call them @ 248.792.4100

 

Where did you get the bajo fittings for your water inlet/outlet?

 

From Mac as well. He is my custom turbo builder.

I think you can get them from ATP turbo as well.

Hello Kitty wouldn't drive a turbo car.

Hopefully you've taken as much care with the 6pt roll cage and automatic halon fire supression system as you have on the motor. I know plenty of people from highschool that got their b-swap on the 1st or 2nd car, and ended up needed a beater not soon after.

It is when it is set to 5 psi for the first year. She gets to dial it up if she has NO driving incidents in the mean time - no tickets, no minor fender-benders, no anything. And, she's been racing shifter carts for almost five years now. If she wasn't a responsible girl who was capable of handling it, she wouldn't be getting it.

I have absolute condidence in her. She's certainly more responsible than most of the little peckerheads running around in modified Hondas.

My brother's kids are all about two years apart, so she will keep it until the next one gets her liscence and so on. That way they each have a car for two years that will allow them to get a job and go earn enough to buy their own by the time they have to give it up for the next kid.

No kidding. Not sure of what to make of some of the posts, but it sure reinforces my opinion that my 16 year old neice is more mature than many of the Honda owners I run into . . .
