Like the title says, looking for pics and info on doing an over/under style compound mounting, with the primary on top. in the "turbo piping pictures" thread I found ONE person doing this, I apologize I can't remember the username, not digging through 39 pages to find it right now. Anyway it was a 3rd gen and he painted his stuff green.
I'm looking to do this setup on a 96 with a HX35/40 hybrid and an HT3B. Headcase98002 and I built his setup which is over/under with primary on bottom. We have good reason for needing to put my primary up top but I'll save that until its done and then the pics will explain :charger:
The secondary will be mounted in stock single charger configuration, likely spaced down an inch or so, the person who did it on the 3rd gen had the primary offset to the passenger side just a tiny bit more than I am aiming for. I will be using a downpipe going to tailpipe exhaust. I plan on likely using a air filter mounted directly to the turbo, and battery relocated to top of inner fender if possible (or put it on driver side or in the bed whatever I have to do)... and a York V-twin air compressor (engine driven off the alternator) to be mounted somewhat close to where the battery and radiator overflow bottle is currently..... gonna be very tight quarters under the hood.
If anyone has any pics to share I would greatly appreciate it!!!! It's my daily driver and I will be doing this in my time off work around the holidays and my short term layoff that will follow, so any pics that would help give me ideas of what obstacles I may come across are great since I can't spend a week just trying to mock it up. That being said I do plan on taking my time to get it right.
Thanks in advance!
