Here is what a complete system could look like.

Ed Klepis at Klepeis@vci.net is an excellent aluminum tig welder that
can fab the whole works for you. His business is called
Tech Welding and he is in Paducah Ky. 270 898 3776

I have noticed his excellent work for several years at both Benson

Days

and Sun & Fun. He makes some fine stuff.

I am going to get him to give me a quote on my intercooler set up.

BTW Dave Leonard I know you are building a system close to mine
so perhaps Ed could quote on two systems if you wish. One for me and
one for you.

Ed, I will send you some more stuff on the turbo system shortly.

Thanks for the thought Paul, but mine is almost done except for mounting
the intercooler.  I used the stock lower manifold cut in half (still
supplies h2o to the turbo). I build an easy but inefficient alum box out
of 2" square tube and ran runners over the top to a THM throttle body
(with secondary injectors).  Then an alum plenum with the stock diffuser
bolted on.  Will use the stock intercooler mounted behind the left RV-6
inlet.

Haven't yet decided on waste gate control.  However, it turns out that my
engine mount will be in the way of the stock waste gate controller like
I planned to use.

I still haven't decided if I need to rebuild my turbo or will upgrade
the compressor section.

Will send pictures one of these days.

I am going to run the stock compressor and see what I get. If I need
more boost I can always change the compressor later.
