Start plumbing up the VW bug’s Turbo #409

Turbo set up continues, I finally got in the 4″ long flex connector for the exhaust. I will need to build a mounting plate to hold the turbo in position and then connect all of the exhaust pipes and intake pipes as well as build the intake.

Start to set up the VW bug turbo system #408

Now with the brakes complete, I can focus on getting the engine running. first up is getting the turbo mounted and plumbed. I am planning on solid mounting the VW bug turbo so the exhaust pipe wil need to be flexible. I am planning on inserting 2 flex connectors to accomplish this.

Vw bug rolling now with brakes #407

I have now completed the brakes. I just had to push it down the block and take a few pictures of it. I discovered, after the fact, that I did not have much usable video. It does roll and stop very well.
